Besides the Linux release of Tropico 5, also available as of today is the official release of Wasteland 2, which is coming twenty-five years after the release of the original Wasteland.

Wasteland 2 is powered by the Unity Game Engine and the Linux support is coming on the same-day as the OS X and Windows launch. The Linux support for Wasteland 2 comes thanks to a very successful Kickstarter campaign that raised millions of dollars back in 2012.

You can learn more about Wasteland 2 (or buy the game) by visiting the Steam Store. The Wasteland 2 classic edition is $39.99 while the digital deluxe edition will set you back $59.99.
