Halo Wars: Definitive Edition is the PC release of Halo Wars. Halo Wars is a real-time strategy video game based inside of the Halo video game universe. Here\u2019s how you can get the game working on Linux.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Halo Wars: Definitive Edition is a Microsoft Windows game, but you can play it on Linux thanks to Proton and Steam Play. To get this game working, you\u2019ll have to set up the Linux version of Steam.<\/p>\n

Install Steam<\/h3>\n

Steam works on a wide variety of Linux operating systems. To get the app working on your Linux system, open up a terminal window on the desktop. You can open a terminal window by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T<\/strong> on the keyboard. Or, search for \u201cTerminal\u201d in the app menu.<\/p>\n

With the terminal window open, the installation can begin. Using the installation instructions down below, get the latest version of Steam working on your computer.<\/p>\n

Ubuntu<\/h4>\n

Steam works on Ubuntu quite well. To get it working on your system, enter the apt install<\/strong> command down below.<\/p>\n

\nsudo apt install steam\n<\/pre>\n
Debian<\/h4>\n
Steam does work on Debian, but you must install it by downloading the official package from Valve. To get your hands on this package, make use of the following wget<\/strong> download command.<\/p>\n
\nwget https:\/\/steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net\/client\/installer\/steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
After downloading the latest release of Steam to your computer, the installation can begin. Using the dpkg<\/strong> installation command, set up Steam on Debian.<\/p>\n
\nsudo dpkg -i steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
Once the Steam app is installed, you must correct any dependency issues during the installation process. To fix these issues on the system, enter the following apt-get install -f<\/strong> command.<\/p>\n
Arch Linux<\/h4>\n
Steam is available to Arch Linux users. However, it is provided via the\u00a0 \u201cmultilib\u201d software repository. To enable this repository, open up the \/etc\/pacman.conf file in your favorite text editor (as root).<\/p>\n
Once the text file is open, find the \u201cmultilib\u201d line. Then, remove the # symbol. Be sure also to remove the # from the lines directly below it. Then, save the edits. Finally, re-sync Arch Linux with the official servers using pacman -Syy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -Syy\n<\/pre>\n
After syncing the Arch, the installation of Steam can begin. Use the pacman -S<\/strong> command down below to install Steam on your computer.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -S steam\n<\/pre>\n
Fedora\/OpenSUSE<\/h4>\n
Both Fedora and OpenSUSE Linux users can install Steam with software repositories included in the operating system. That being said, this version of Steam doesn\u2019t work as well as the Flatpak release of Steam, so we suggest installing that version instead.<\/p>\n
Flatpak<\/h4>\n
\n
To get Steam working as a Flatpak on your Linux OS, you\u2019ll first need to install the Flatpak runtime. You can install the Flatpak runtime on your computer by following our guide on the subject.<\/p>\n
After setting up the Flatpak runtime on your system, Steam is ready to be installed. Using the two commands below, set up the app.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\nflatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https:\/\/flathub.org\/repo\/flathub.flatpakrepo\n<\/pre>\n
\nflatpak install flathub com.valvesoftware.Steam\n<\/pre>\n
Install Halo Wars: Definitive Edition on Linux<\/h3>\n
With the Steam app installed on your computer, open it up. Then, log in to the app using your password and user credentials. Then, follow the step-by-step instructions down below to get Halo Wars: Definitive Edition working on Linux.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Open up the \u201cSteam\u201d menu, find the \u201cSettings\u201d button, and click on it with the mouse. When you select this button, you\u2019ll be brought to the Steam settings area. Inside the settings area, find \u201cSteam Play\u201d and click on it to access the Steam Play settings.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Inside the Steam Play area, check both the \u201cEnable Steam Play for supported titles\u201d box and the \u201cEnable Steam Play for all other titles\u201d box. Click the \u201cOK\u201d button to apply the system settings.<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Find the \u201cStore\u201d button and click on it with the mouse to access the Steam store. Then, click on the search box and type in \u201cHalo Wars: Definitive Edition.\u201d Finally, press the Enter<\/strong> key to view the results.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Look through the search results and select \u201cHalo Wars: Definitive Edition\u201d with the mouse. When you choose the game, it will load up the Halo Wars: Definitive Edition Steam store page.<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> On the Halo Wars Steam store page, locate the green \u201cAdd to cart\u201d button. Click on \u201cAdd to cart\u201d to purchase the game and add it to your account to go through the process of buying the game.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/strong> After buying Halo Wars: Definitive Edition, find the \u201cLibrary\u201d button and click on it with the mouse. Then, locate the blue \u201cINSTALL\u201d button. Click on this button to install the game on your computer.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> Once Halo Wars is installed on your computer via Steam, the blue \u201cINSTALL\u201d button will become a green \u201cPLAY\u201d button. Select the \u201cPLAY\u201d button to start up the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
