Phoronix: The First Unreal Engine 3 Game Ships For Linux

While Epic Games hasn't allowed for Unreal Tournament 3 to be released for Linux, the first native Linux game using Unreal Engine 3 was released today. Yes, Unreal Engine 3 for Linux...

Valve is also using SDL2.

Don't forget Unity 4 also supports Linux. I wonder if this will put pressure on Epic to make Unreal Engine 4 support Linux.

I want that too, but it doesn't use Unreal Engine 3.

Wish it worked.

This is what I get attempting to run it:

[m@ptah DungeonDefenders]$ ./DungeonDefenders 
Dungeon Defenders: Installed in '/home/m/Downloads/DungeonDefenders'.
XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"

How come a indie game can afford a license of the unreal engine? Isn't the cost something like 700.000$?

The Unreal Development Kit is free, as long as you share a part of the profits with Epic.

Though I'd really like to see the UDK itself ported to Linux, with the editor and all.
