Kunnen Linux-gebruikers eindelijk stoppen met vertrouwen op launchers van derden voor Epic-games? Het antwoord is hoogstwaarschijnlijk ja. Een vertegenwoordiger van de Epic Games Store heeft namelijk gezegd dat offici\u00eble Linux-ondersteuning \u201cbinnenkort\u201d komt. Op dit moment heeft het bedrijf nog geen lanceringsdatum bekendgemaakt, maar de bevestiging betekent een grote verandering voor een winkel die Linux lange tijd heeft overgeslagen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Epic zegt dat Linux-ondersteuning meer vereist dan een eenvoudige port<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

De mensen van SteamDeckHQ<\/a> ontdekten de bevestiging als eerste; die kwam naar verluidt tijdens een Epic Games Store AMA op de community-Discord van het bedrijf<\/a> (via VideoCardz<\/a>). Epic-medewerker @onepercentnachos<\/em> zei dat Linux-ondersteuning gepland is, maar dat die niet met de volgende previewrelease zal verschijnen.<\/p>\n\n\n

Belangrijker is dat de vertegenwoordiger suggereerde dat het werk meer omvat dan alleen het maken van een Linux-versie. Dat kan wijzen op bredere platformintegratie in plaats van een eenvoudige launcherport. De huidige winkel van Epic ondersteunt officieel pc, Mac en Android. Het bedrijf ondersteunt ook iPhone en iPad in de Europese Unie, maar Linux ontbreekt op de offici\u00eble platformlijst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steam Deck kan een van de grootste begunstigden zijn<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Een offici\u00eble Epic Games Store-client zou gamen op Steam Deck en Linux aanzienlijk eenvoudiger kunnen maken. Gebruikers zouden mogelijk toegang kunnen krijgen tot hun Epic-bibliotheken, gratis games kunnen claimen en downloads kunnen beheren zonder te vertrouwen op door de community gebouwde launchers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dat betekent niet automatisch dat Fortnite op Linux zal werken. Epic heeft eerder zorgen geuit over anti-cheat op Linux, terwijl individuele games nog steeds compatibele beveiligingsconfiguraties nodig hebben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dat gezegd hebbende: Epic heeft geen ondersteunde distributies, SteamOS-compatibiliteit of een releasevenster aangekondigd. Het gebruik van \u201cbinnenkort\u201d door het bedrijf laat nog veel vragen onbeantwoord.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
