Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Premieres On Linux, 2 Years After Windows

Posted by timothy on from the man-this-is-a-long-party dept.

An anonymous reader writes Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has finally been released for Linux two years after its Windows debut. The game is reported to work even on the open-source Intel Linux graphics drivers, but your mileage may vary. When it comes to the AMD and NVIDIA drivers, NVIDIA continues dominating for Linux gaming over AMD with Catalyst where there's still performance levels and other OpenGL issues.

    It is great to see Linux gaining more traction when it comes to gaming. The number of games on steam that support Linux are getting quite numerous. Maybe we will eventually see Linux used as much as Windows for gaming in the future.
