Epic Games is working on expanding Fortnite to the Linux gaming ecosystem by rebuilding Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) to support Linux platforms. They plan to launch Fortnite on Linux via the Epic Games Launcher once EAC Linux v2 is functional with a critical mass of distribution maintainers. This initiative aims to enhance the gaming landscape for Linux users and encourage other developers to bring their games to the platform. Despite growing interest in Linux gaming, many major multiplayer titles remain hesitant due to security concerns. Epic is collaborating with Valve to address compatibility issues with the Steam Deck and has launched a new version of the Epic Games Store client that supports Linux.

A PC modder has created a mod for Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 remake that introduces local co-op functionality, allowing two players to control their own characters instead of just having a computer-controlled ally. The mod, called Local Couch Co-op, was developed by Shopcreeper01 and offers various character selections, each with unique inventories and HUD elements. It supports both shared-screen and split-screen display modes and requires the Steam version of Resident Evil 2 along with REFramework. The mod is exclusive to PC users. Additionally, it features an experimental mode inspired by Capcom’s upcoming title, Pragmata, where one player manages movement and the other focuses on aiming and shooting.

A developer named Mihawk has successfully run Windows 11 on the PS5 through a project called Mihawk OS, allowing both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows games to operate on a jailbroken PS5. Mihawk has also integrated RetroArch, enabling various emulators to function on the console. Early reports indicate that the game HADES has been seen running in this Windows environment. This development may allow gamers to play titles like Gears of War: E-Day natively on the PS5. However, jailbreaking the console can limit access to PlayStation servers and pose risks to user accounts.
