SNOW free-to-play now available for Linux
SNOW is the only free-to-play, open world, winter sports game available for Windows PC and now Linux. The game let’s players explore a massive mountain, customize your own character with clothing and equipment, then compete in events to be the best. Or play online and explore the mountain in a full out multiplayer, check it out on Steam.
Key Features
- Open-World Explore Sialia, a massive alpine mountain handcrafted for the game. Descend Sialia’s four faces and discover hidden valleys, mountain towns, old ruins and much more.
- Authentic Feel the snow beneath you as your ride down the mountain. SNOW has been built as a completely physics driven game to give you the most realistic skiing experience ever.
- Customization Dress yourself in the latest clothing and equipment from the biggest brands. Customize your look from head to toe from a catalogue of over 700 items.
- Multiplayer Ride with your friends in Free Roam Multiplayer and experience the mountain together.
Upcoming Features
- Snowboard If you’re not a fan of skiing, strap on your snowboard and shred the mountain a different way. Customize your character with clothing and equipment from the biggest snowboard brands.
- Snowmobiles Tired of always riding down the mountain? With the snowmobile you’ll be able to ride up the mountain instead! New events and features will ensure that snowmobiles are as important to the game as skiing and snowboarding.
So Linux Game News has some problem running SNOW, as there seems to be an issue where the game “seg faults” at startup. Users have also been commenting in the discussion with the same issue, so we are hoping Poppermost Productions or community members will have a work-around soon. And the Settings menu is coming up blank as well.
Being that this is a CryEngine game, we are hoping there will be some engine based support offered to the developers via Crytek.
