The Humble Jumbo Bundle 12 is another bundled rammed full of good games, some of which have a native Linux version.

• Gaming: The Witness

  Overall a great game I enjoyed a whole let – mostly because I like brain gymnastics. The riddles are well prepared, the steps to learning the rules well thought out, I great piece of entertainment.

  There are only two points where I had problems: One were the puzzles depending on colors, which due to my color weakness was a major hurdle.

• Shadow of the Tomb Raider Is Coming to Linux and Mac in 2019

  UK-based video games publisher Feral Interactive announced today that they plan to port the Shadow of the Tomb Raider video game to Linux and macOS platforms for a 2019 release.

  As expected, this comes as a huge surprise for all Linux and Mac gamers, as the Tomb Raider franchise featuring the gorgeous and always brave Lara Croft will be coming to their beloved platforms sometime next year, thanks to the hard work from Feral Interactive, who just ported the Total War: WARHAMMER II game to Linux and Mac.

• Shadow of the Tomb Raider is officially coming to Linux in 2019

  Originally published by Square Enix and developed by Eidos-Montréal, Feral Interactive confirmed today that Shadow of the Tomb Raider is officially heading to Linux in 2019.

  Making sure we have the full experience, with Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider already ported to Linux by Feral this is really quite exciting news!

  This replaces the recent teaser put out earlier this month on the Feral port radar. So we now have Total War: WARHAMMER II arriving today plus Life is Strange 2, Total War: THREE KINGDOMS and Shadow of the Tomb Raider all heading to Linux. Feral sure are busy and that's good for us.

• Feral Is Bringing Shadow of the Tomb Raider To Linux

  While waiting for the release of Warhammer II today, Feral Interactive just announced they will be releasing Shadow of the Tomb Raider for Linux (and macOS) in 2019.

  Shadow of the Tomb Raider just recently premiered for Windows as the latest release in this Lara Croft franchise. The game is graphically impressive and is quite popular at the moment on Windows.

• To celebrate Half-Life turning 20, Black Mesa released a trailer for Xen

  Has it really been 20 years? Blimey! Black Mesa, the fan-made recreation of the original with plenty of bells and whistles has a trailer for the hotly anticipated Xen levels.

  [...]

  It's also interesting to see how they made more of a splash about Half-Life being 20 years old than Valve themselves did, which was, well—nothing.

• 7 Days to Die now has an experimental build available for Alpha 17, it's a huge difference

  After waiting what feels like forever, the pimps have put out an experimental version of their Alpha 17 release for everyone to try out.

  It's a very different game to the previous alpha version that's for sure. I won't go over everything that has changed, here's a copy-paste from what I wrote before for those who missed the highlights:

• Steam Link hardware officially walks the plank, there's an app for that

  Valve has quietly mentioned that the Steam Link is selling out across the world with stock either sold out or about to be sold out. It's already sold out in Europe with stock in the US almost gone too, so if you want one you better act fast.

• The Early Access MMO 'Project: Gorgon' now has a demo available

  Elder Game, LLC have now put up a demo for their MMO Project: Gorgon, this will allow you to progress quite a bit to see what's on offer. Note: We would have looked at it more thoroughly, but the developer didn't reply to repeated requests for a key.

• The MMO 'Vendetta Online' is adding Vulkan support

  Vendetta Online, the MMO from Guild Software Inc that has supported Linux for a long time is going to add Vulkan support alongside some other fun sounding advancements.

• Developer of 'Bad North', a real-time tactics rogue-lite seems keen about Linux support

  Always a fan to see what developers can do with a strategy game, Bad North does look rather good and it seems the developer has taken notice of requests for a Linux version.

  It's what they're calling a "real-time tactics roguelite", which released this month for Windows and Mac. Sounds like it could be quite fun, with a very different challenge each time you fail play.

• 9 Best Fighting Games For Android To Kick Some Ass In 2019

  Fighting Games may not constitute top-of-the-line Android games, but that doesn’t mean people are not crazy about it. Gamers still enjoy the inhumane violence that these games bring along.

If you are hoping to pick-up a new graphics card during the upcoming holiday sales, here is a 20-way NVIDIA GeForce and AMD Radeon Linux gaming benchmark comparison using a wide assortment of GPUs while using the very newest graphics drivers and a variety of OpenGL/Vulkan titles.

In preparation for the Radeon RX 590 launch this week, I've been re-testing my available graphics cards on the latest AMD/NVIDIA drivers and newest kernel (unlike some Windows sites that may regurgitate their existing data points for months at a time, Phoronix tests are always done fresh on the current/latest components). But with the Radeon RX 590 currently being a dud on Linux with the current AMDGPU kernel code, I decided to keep testing including some older graphics cards to make for this twenty-way comparison ahead of Black Friday sales and the holidays.
