So this isn't as great of a post as i was hoping, but its Labor Day weekend here in the United States and I've been starving for my Linux game news. Nevertheless you better believe I've got some news, and its great news at that!
A little known developer in the major scheme of things has announced a partnership with Square Enix (the creators of the awesome Final Fantasy line of games among other things). This partnership will help Ankama Games bring its unique game Wakfu to North America.
The best news of it all? It is multi platform, meaning our brothers and sisters on Mac OS X, Linux and even the quite unpopular Windows operating system are able to play. This game looks promising, with Square Enix backing it, I'm sure it'll be a great product.
Here is to hoping it comes sooner than later. To see screenshots and videos of the game click the media link down below.
Here's the news post on Ankama Games' site.
"Ankama has chosen a 5 stars partner for the launch of its coming MMORPG: the renowned game publisher Square Enix! The company known for titles like Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy will present the tactical game with turned based fights to the American players.
Wakfu offers the same tactical turned based fighting system as DOFUS, as well as the same 12 characters, and also stands out with its evolving ecosystem: your actions will have an impact on the environment! If you kill a monster, the species might disappear, if you extract a mineral, the resource might die out. You will be able to choose if you want to protect or exploit a natural resource of your environment! "
