If you’ve visited SudoStation recently, you might have noticed something new in the menu – our Gaming section. This is a big step forward for us, and it’s something we’ve been excited to launch. Linux gaming has grown rapidly in recent years, and while information is out there, it’s often scattered across forums, Reddit threads, or long YouTube tutorials. We wanted to create a space where everything is gathered in one place. A clear and easy to follow structure of "how it all fits together".
What You’ll Find in the Gaming Section
The new section is divided into three sub-sections that together cover the essentials of gaming on Linux. The Games on Linux page highlights the state of native Linux games and which popular titles work well today. The Linux Game Launchers page provides the options you have for launching non-native games. Finally, the Linux Game Runners page focuses on the tools that make non-native Windows games playable, such as Wine and Proton, and offers a structure on how they can be compared to one another.
These pages are designed to complement each other and to give you the mental framework of how things fit together. Everything connects to give you the confidence to enjoy gaming on Linux without needless guesswork.
Why We Built It
Gaming on Linux has always been possible, but it used to feel like something for enthusiasts only. You had to spend time digging through wikis, applying patches, and hoping your hardware would cooperate. Things have changed dramatically. Between Proton making Windows games accessible and new launchers simplifying installations, Linux is now a viable gaming platform for many people. But for newcomers, it can still be overwhelming to know where to start.
That’s where this new section comes in. Our aim is to provide a clear, trustworthy path through the noise. Instead of wondering what you need to know, or what you should know, you can have a browsing experience that provides the essential structure of the Linux gaming ecosystem. And because the Linux ecosystem changes so quickly, we plan to keep these pages updated with the latest additions.
Looking Ahead
We see this Gaming section as an essential for game enthusiast newcomers who simply want to understand "how it all fits together" on the Linux ecosystem. Once they understand the structure, they will know "what they don't know" and what questions to ask.
Gaming on Linux is no longer about luck. It’s about having the right knowledge and tools. With our new Gaming section, SudoStation is here to make sure you have both, so you can spend less time going down unnecessary rabbit holes and more time actually playing.
