Borderlands 2 to scavenge for loot and experience on Linux

Borderlands 2 opened fire on psychos and wildlife almost two years ago, but Gearbox Software's cooperative shoot-n-loot is keen on hunting game in as many regions as possible. Borderlands 2 is now poised to cross another target off its list, as Gaming On Linux has confirmed it will launch on Linux courtesy of Aspyr Media. The port-savvy studio is seasoned with bringing shooters to Mac (and was in talks with Respawn about Titanfall on Mac months ago), but since it already did as much with Borderlands 2 last November, the studio now has Linux in its sights.

IGN's followup adds that Aspyr's plans include "all of the awesome DLC" for Borderlands 2, so Linux fans should have plenty to aim at once the port opens season. Aspyr has not offered a launch window, but it teased to IGN that the studio will have more to announce about Borderlands 2 and other Linux-related content "in the near future."
