Mirror\u2019s Edge is an action\/platformer game for PC, Xbox 360, and PS3. It was developed by DICE and published by Electronic Arts. It is set in a futuristic city and follows Faith Connors, an underground parkour courier. Here\u2019s how to play it on Linux.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Mirror\u2019s Edge works pretty well on Linux, thanks to Steam Play and Proton. However, if you wish to play this game on your Linux PC, you\u2019ll have to install the Steam client for Linux.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Install Steam<\/h3>\n

To install Steam on your Linux PC, you\u2019ll need to open up a terminal window. To open up a terminal window on the Linux desktop, press Ctrl + Alt + T\u00a0<\/strong>on the keyboard or search for \u201cTerminal\u201d in the app menu.<\/p>\n

Once the terminal window is open and ready to use, follow the installation instructions below that correspond to the Linux OS you currently use.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ubuntu<\/h4>\n

To install Steam on Ubuntu, enter the following\u00a0apt install\u00a0<\/strong>command below.<\/p>\n

\nsudo apt install steam\n<\/pre>\n
Debian<\/h4>\n
If you wish to use Steam on Debian, your best bet is to download the DEB package to your computer. To do that, use the following\u00a0wget\u00a0<\/strong>download command down below.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nwget https:\/\/steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net\/client\/installer\/steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
When the download is complete, you\u2019ll be able to install Steam via the DEB package. To do that, use the following\u00a0dpkg\u00a0<\/strong>installation command down below.<\/p>\n
\nsudo dpkg -i steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
Now that the Steam app is installed, you\u2019ll need to correct any dependency issues present. To do that, use the following\u00a0apt-get install -f\u00a0<\/strong>command.<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt-get install -f\n<\/pre>\n
Arch Linux<\/h4>\n
Steam is available for installation on Arch Linux in the \u201cmultilib\u201d software repository. To enable this repo, open up the \/etc\/pacman.conf<\/code> file in your favorite text editor.<\/p>\n
Inside of the text file, locate \u201cmultilib\u201d and remove the # symbol from in front of it. Then, remove the # symbol from the lines directly below it. When all # symbols are removed, save the edit and re-sync Arch with the repos.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -Syy\n<\/pre>\n
Lastly, install Steam.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -S steam\n<\/pre>\n
Fedora\/OpenSUSE<\/h4>\n
Both OpenSUSE and Fedora can install Steam via software repos included on the system. That being said, the Flatpak release of Steam tends to work 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 system, you\u2019ll need first to set up the Flatpak runtime. You can get the runtime installed by following along with our in-depth guide on the subject.<\/p>\n
When the Flatpak runtime is installed and configured, use the two commands down below to install the Steam release of Flatpak on your Linux computer.\u00a0<\/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

Locate the \u201cCompatibility\u201d section in the properties window, and set it to \u201cProton 5.0-10.\u201d This is the version of Proton you will need for the game to work correctly.<\/p>\n
