Infinity Runner, an action game developed and published on Steam by Wales Interactive, will arrive on Linux on June 2.

Infinity Runner is a game that tells everything about the gameplay just with its name. The mobile platforms are filled with games that feature perpetual running, but there are very few on the desktop, and even fewer on Linux.

“The Infinity is the largest spaceship ever built by man-kind; flung into the void of space to secure humanity a new home amongst the stars. However, instead of discovering paradise, the inhabitants of The Infinity unlocked the door to a long forgotten nightmare. Deep inside this leviathan something terrible hunts, out of myth and legend the last werewolf stalks the ship.”

“Infinity Runner centres on a prisoner desperately trying to escape the decaying ship and the clutches of the terror within. It’s a sci-fi action running game for PC, Mac, and Linux that features 14 stunning levels, Oculus Rift support and multi-player,” reads the official website.

Infinity Runner is one of the first games of this type that take the gameplay to another level. Until now most of these titles have been played from a third-person perspective, but Infinity Runner is an FPS, which makes it quite unique.

It's not every day that Linux users get the information about an impending release a month in advance, but we'll keep an eye out for this interesting game.
