Between 2025-02-05 and 2025-02-12 there were 11 New Steam games released with Native Linux clients. For reference, during the same time, there were 77 games released for Windows on Steam, so the Linux versions represent about 14.3 % of total released titles. The obvious elephant in the room is the release of Civilization VII, that nobody has missed. The game has received mixed reviews so far, with several gameplay issues and a dumbed down interface that receives quite a few complaints. As usual Civilization games typically get better by the time the next version comes out, so maybe right is a good time to pick Civ 6 up!
