Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth is already out for the Windows platform, and the Aspyr Media team is working on the port for Mac OS X and Linux. They have explained, in detail, just what kinds of challenges they are facing when dealing with such a complex title.
Aspyr Media is the same team that ported Civilization V, so they are no strangers to the engine being used or to the series. For the previous game, their work was made easier by the fact that they did the Mac OS X port beforehand. Some of you might know that Linux and Mac OS X are pretty similar platforms, at least in terms of gaming. When a studio ports something for the OS built by Apple, it will most certainly work on Linux as well.
