Linux installation?

Hi all, a maybe stupid question… but I couldn’t find clear information:

How to purchase a version for Linux (and if possible for Windows in parallel)?

The DVD from Astragon is for “PC/Windows”. This website here announced that Windows users can deploy the Linux version as well…

Can the Linux version be installed from that DVD as well?

Can I play it in Windoze *and*Linux? Can it be played from two different Linux boxes? (I use Ubuntu and Arch Linux)

Thanks in advance and apologize if I did not RTFM if one exists.

I don’t know about any boxed versions. But the steam version gives you the game on all platforms. I would assume that any boxed version would also give you a key that can also be activated (or maybe it even requires you to do so) on steam. That way you have the game on all platforms.

Consider also that the Linux version is only for 64-bit linux.

The boxed version contains (or at least conatined – during launch) only WIndows instalations files. But the game require Steam so u can take the licence number from box and download and install the game from Steam Client.

The licence works for both Windows and Linux (and Mac OSX) You can play the game from ANY machine with Steam, u can have multiple instalation across diferent OSs, as long as you are logged in your Steam account.
