A game studio has shared publicly that Activison is preventing a new game from actively being made for “that platform”, a.k.a. Linux.

Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers was a 1993 adventure game out of Sierra On-Line that was popular back in the day and is now being remade as “Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers 20th Anniversary Edition.” The title was announced back in October with plans to release the game for Windows, Apple OS X, iPad, Android, and Linux. The game re-make is being developed by Pinkerton Road and Phoenix Online Studios.
