Civilization: Beyond Earth Coming Soon To Linux, Intel/AMD Support Restored

For Linux gamers that are fans of Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth, the Linux port of the game could arrive as soon as next week.

The Linux version of Civilization: Beyond Earth is now under review for all parties involved. According to the latest blog post on the matter, "the launch should be very soon. We have now submitted the Linux version of Civilization: Beyond Earth to all parties for approval! Assuming all goes well, Linux users will be colonizing new planets just in time for Christmas (possibly as soon as next week)."

As further good news, the previously mentioned Beyond Earth problems with AMD and Intel graphics on Linux are being resolved so the support should be cleared up there. Civilization: Beyond Earth should thus be playable on all major Linux graphics drivers.

More details on this Linux game release hopefully out in time for the holidays can be found via this blog post update.
