Metro Last Light Redux is a re-release of the post-apocalyptic FPS Metro Last Light. The game works surprisingly well on Linux and was released natively on the platform. In this guide, we\u2019ll show you how to install it on Linux.<\/p>\n

\"Metro:<\/p>\n

Metro Last Light Redux is native to Linux, and the developers at Deep Silver work really hard to support Linux. However, the game only works with the help of the Linux Steam client. So, we must demonstrate how to install Steam on Linux.<\/p>\n

Ubuntu<\/h4>\n

If you use Ubuntu, you can install Steam with the following\u00a0apt install\u00a0<\/strong>command.<\/p>\n

\nsudo apt install steam\n<\/pre>\n
Debian<\/h4>\n
On Debian Linux, it\u2019s much better to install Steam directly from Valve rather than dealing with the Debian \u201cNon-free\u201d software repository. To download, you\u2019ll need to make use of the following wget\u00a0<\/strong>command down below.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0wget\u00a0<\/strong>download command will take the Steam DEB package directly to your home folder. This download process will not take long, as the Steam DEB package is relatively small.<\/p>\n
\nwget https:\/\/steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net\/client\/installer\/steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
Once the download process is complete, you\u2019ll need to install the Steam DEB package onto your computer. Using the\u00a0dpkg\u00a0<\/strong>command below, install the latest release of Steam to your PC.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nsudo dpkg -i steam.deb\n<\/pre>\n
With Steam installed fully, the final step is to take care of all stray dependencies that may need to be corrected. To correct these issues, use the following\u00a0apt-get install -f\u00a0<\/strong>command below.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt-get install -f\n<\/pre>\n
Arch Linux<\/h4>\n
On Arch Linux, Steam is available through the \u201cmultilib\u201d software repository. To get going with it, you will need to enable the \u201cmultilib\u201d repo. To do that, open up the \/etc\/pacman.conf file, locate \u201cmultilib,\u201d and remove the # symbol from in front of it, along with lines directly below it.<\/p>\n
Once you\u2019ve made the edits, close the text editor and re-sync with Pacman using the following command.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -Syy\n<\/pre>\n
Finally, install the latest release of Steam on your Arch Linux PC with the\u00a0pacman\u00a0<\/strong>command.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -S steam\n<\/pre>\n
Fedora\/OpenSUSE<\/h4>\n
On both Fedora as well as OpenSUSE, Steam is available for installation through included software repositories. Steam from these repositories runs games fine. However, the Flatpak release of Steam seems to perform better on these operating systems.<\/p>\n
Flatpak<\/h4>\n
To get Steam working via Flatpak, you\u2019ll need first to set up the Steam runtime. Thankfully, it is very easy to set up the Flatpak runtime. To do it, please follow our in-depth guide on the subject.<\/p>\n
After setting up the Flatpak runtime on your Linux PC, the next step in the process is to add the Flathub app store. Flathub has Steam, as well as many other apps. To get it working, use the\u00a0flatpak remote-add\u00a0<\/strong>command below.<\/p>\n
\nflatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https:\/\/flathub.org\/repo\/flathub.flatpakrepo\n<\/pre>\n
Once you\u2019ve set up the Flathub app store on your Linux PC, the final step in the process is to install Steam. Using the\u00a0flatpak install\u00a0<\/strong>command below, get Steam working.<\/p>\n
\nflatpak install flathub com.valvesoftware.Steam\n<\/pre>\n
Play Metro Last Light Redux on Linux<\/h3>\n
Now that Steam is installed on your Linux PC launch it from the app menu. Once it is open, log in using your username and password. Then, follow the step-by-step instructions down below to play Metro Last Light Redux.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Locate the \u201cSteam\u201d menu in Steam, and click on it with the mouse. Upon clicking on it, select the \u201cSettings\u201d button to access the Settings area. Then click on \u201cSteam Play\u201d to access the Steam Play area.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Inside of the Steam Play area, make sure that both boxes are checked. These boxes, when checked, enable Valve Steam Play technology on your computer and allow games to run.<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Find the \u201cSTORE\u201d button, and click on it with the mouse. When you select the \u201cSTORE\u201d button, you\u2019ll access the Steam Store.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Locate the \u201cSearch\u201d box, and type in \u201cMetro Last Light Redux\u201d into the text box. Press the\u00a0Enter\u00a0<\/strong>key on the keyboard to view the search results. Then, look through the search results and select \u201cMetro Last Light\u201d to access the game\u2019s store page.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> On the Metro Last Light Redux store page, locate the green \u201cAdd to cart\u201d button to add the game to your Steam cart. Then, go through the process of purchasing the game with your account.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/strong> Find the \u201cLIBRARY\u201d button, and click on it with the mouse to access your Steam library. From there, find \u201cMetro Last Light Redux\u201d and click on it. Select the blue \u201cINSTALL\u201d button to download and install the game to your Linux PC.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
When the download is complete, the blue \u201cINSTALL\u201d button will become a green \u201cPLAY\u201d button. Click \u201cPLAY\u201d to start up the game. Enjoy, and happy gaming!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
