Steam sigue su camino hacia el dominio mundial siguiente parada Linux.
Valve has announced that a beta for Steam on Linux will begin in October. According to a blog post on Valve’s site, internal beta testing will begin next week, followed by a private external beta for 1,000 users later in October.
The private beta will include Steam and one Valve game and will support Ubuntu 12.04 and above. It will not yet include Big Picture Mode or additional Valve games. “For existing Linux users, the external private beta is a good release for seeing where we are in running our games on Linux,” the post notes. “We will be using a sign up page for the external beta. Information about the sign up will be announced in a future post.”
For users that aren’t familiar with Linux, Valve recommends not signing up for the external beta, but instead waiting for a later release “where more features are implemented along with improvements to the user install experience.”
Valve’s Linux team formed last year and is currently made up of 11 people. “Our mission is to investigate open source development with a specific focus on supporting Steam and other Valve products on the Linux platform,” the blog notes. “This includes Linux ports of Steam and Valve games, as well as partner games. We are also investigating open source initiatives that could benefit the community and game developers.” The team is currently hiring additional developers.
Una buena noticia para todos aquellos que reniegan de Windows , ahora solo queda ver que juegos lo soportaran.
