Valve’s “Steam Play” Uses Vulkan to Bring More Windows Games to Linux

  Congrats! And big thanks to developers and Valve who funded dxvk, vkd3d, esync and other Wine as well as Mesa work, while contributing everything in FOSS fashion. This benefits not just Steam users but all Linux gamers.

  I'm stoked to finally be able to play monsters like Doom, Quake, and Bejeweled on Linux.

    You could use Wine and all those tools to do it for a while already.

        Well, that and both Doom/Quake have native ports and open source implementations that beat the pants off the original windows binaries.
