Epic Games recently did an AMA (Ask me anything) in the community Discord server, confirming that a Linux / SteamOS version of the Epic Games Store is coming.

    Bring back the Rocket League Linux client or eat a fucking dick, Epic.

    Some folks forget Rocket League had a perfectly running Linux version of the game UP UNTIL Epic bought it and shitcanned the Linux version.

          Yeah, I’m running Bazzite and still playing Rocket League through Steam. Works great, better framerate than Windows

          You could even get a full refund for your purchase. I did with 100s of hours and the original purchase being years ago.

            It was gifted to me, so I’m not sure how that would work.

            EDIT: Upon reflection though, it would be nice if you could refund your friends for a game they gifted you that you weren’t actually into (as long as you make sure it doesn’t hurt the friends feelings first of course)

    It’d be pretty funny if the Linux client will be actually usable unlike the windows version
