Orcs Must Die! 2 is a tower-defense style video game developed by Robot Entertainment as the sequel to Orcs Must Die!. The game was released on Microsoft Windows in 2012 but never made its way to Linux. Here\u2019s how to play it on your Linux PC.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Orcs Must Die! 2 works on Linux, but only with the help of Proton and Steam Play, a feature of the Linux Steam client. For this reason, we\u2019ll need to go over how to install the Linux release of Steam.<\/p>\n

Install Steam<\/h3>\n

To install Steam on Linux, you\u2019ll need to open up a terminal window on the desktop. You can open up a terminal window on the Linux desktop by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T<\/strong> on the keyboard. Alternatively, search for \u201cterminal\u201d in the app menu.<\/p>\n

When a terminal window is open and ready to go, the installation can begin. Using the instructions outlined below, set up Steam on your Linux PC.<\/p>\n

Ubuntu<\/h4>\n

On Ubuntu, you can set up the latest release of Steam using the apt install<\/strong> command down below.<\/p>\n

\nsudo apt install steam\n<\/pre>\n
Debian<\/h4>\n
Steam works on Debian. If you want to get it working, you\u2019ll have to download Steam directly from Valve. To do that, use the following wget<\/strong> download command down below.<\/p>\n
\nwget https:\/\/steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net\/client\/installer\/steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
After the Steam DEB package is done downloading, the installation can begin. Using the dpkg<\/strong> command down below, set up the Steam package on your computer.<\/p>\n
\nsudo dpkg -i steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
With the Steam package set up on your Debian Linux PC, you\u2019ll have to correct any dependency issues that may have occurred during the installation process. Using the apt-get install -f<\/strong> command below, fix the problems.<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt-get install -f\n<\/pre>\n
Arch Linux<\/h4>\n
Steam is available on Arch Linux through the \u201cmultilib\u201d software repository. Unfortunately, the repository is disabled by default. To enable this software repository, open up the \/etc\/pacman.conf<\/code> file in your favorite text editor (as root).<\/p>\n
Once the text file is open as root, locate the \u201cmultilib\u201d line and remove the # symbol from the text file. Be sure to also remove the # symbol from the lines directly below it. Then, save the edits and close it.<\/p>\n
After closing the text file, re-sync your Arch Linux system with the official software repositories using the command below.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -Syy\n<\/pre>\n
Finally, once the \u201cmultilib\u201d software repository is configured, the Steam application can be installed on your system. Use the pacman<\/strong> command below to install the Steam app.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -S steam\n<\/pre>\n
Fedora\/OpenSUSE<\/h4>\n
Both OpenSUSE and Fedora Linux have the ability to install Steam from software repositories included on the system. However, the Flatpak release of Steam works much better on these operating systems, so we suggest following those instructions instead.<\/p>\n
Flatpak<\/h4>\n
To get Steam working via Flatpak on your Linux PC, you\u2019ll first need to configure the Flatpak runtime. To set up the Flatpak runtime on your computer, follow our guide on the subject.<\/p>\n
When the runtime is configured, use the flatpak remote-add<\/strong> command and the flatpak install<\/strong> command to get the Steam application up and running on your Linux computer system.<\/p>\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 Orcs Must Die! 2 on Linux<\/h3>\n
Launch the app and log into your Steam account once the Flatpak runtime is configured on your Linux system. Then, follow the step-by-step instructions below to get Orcs Must Die! 2 working on Linux!<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Open up the \u201cSteam\u201d menu and select the \u201cSettings\u201d button to open up the Steam settings. Once inside the \u201cSteam Settings\u201d area, find the \u201cSteam Play\u201d button and select it with the mouse.<\/p>\n
Inside the Steam Play area, find and check both the \u201cEnable Steam Play for supported titles\u201d and the \u201cEnable Steam Play for all other titles\u201d. Finally, click on the \u201cOK\u201d button to confirm your settings.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Find the \u201cStore\u201d button and click on it with the mouse. From here, find the search box, and click on it with the mouse. Then, type in \u201cOrcs Must Die! 2\u201d into the box. Press the Enter<\/strong> key to view the search results.<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> Look through the search results for \u201cOrcs Must Die! 2\u201d and click on it to access the game\u2019s Steam store page. Once on the Orcs Must Die! 2 store page, locate the green \u201cadd to cart\u201d button and select it to purchase the game to your account.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/strong> After purchasing the game, find the \u201cLibrary\u201d button, and click on it with the mouse to access your Steam games library. Then, look through it to find \u201cOrcs Must Die! 2\u201d.<\/p>\n
Once you\u2019ve found the game, locate the blue \u201cINSTALL\u201d button and click on it with the mouse. Selecting this button will download the game to your computer and install it.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> When the installation is complete, the blue \u201cINSTALL\u201d button will become a green \u201cPLAY\u201d button. Select it to start up the game. Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
