How to play Legion TD 2 on Linux
Legion TD 2 is a tower defense game for Windows. It was developed and published by AutoAttack Games. Thanks to Proton, you’ll be able to play this game on Linux. Here’s how.
Getting Legion TD 2 working on Linux
Legion TD 2 is not a Linux game, but it’s rated so highly on ProtonDB, it might as well be. To play this game on your Linux computer, you’ll need Steam.
Install Steam
Why Steam? Because Legion TD 2 is built for Windows, and to run it on Linux, you need to install the Linux release of Steam. To get Steam working, open up a terminal window.
You can launch a terminal window on the Linux desktop by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T on the keyboard. Alternatively, search for “Terminal” in the app menu and launch it that way.
Ubuntu
Steam works on Ubuntu out of the box. If you’re using Ubuntu, you’ll be able to get the app working using the following apt install command below.
sudo apt install steam
Debian
Steam works on Debian. However, you’ll have to download the latest Steam DEB package directly from Valve to get the app working. To download Steam, use the following wget download command.
wget https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steam.deb
After downloading the latest release of Steam to your Debian Linux computer, the installation can begin. Using the dpkg command down below, install Steam.
sudo dpkg -i steam.deb
Once the Steam DEB package is installed, the app is set up. That being said, there are issues to fix. You’ll need to correct any dependency errors that occurred during the installation process.
sudo apt-get install -f
Arch Linux
Arch Linux makes the Steam app available in the “multilib” software repo. However, not every Arch user has “multilib” enabled by default, so it’ll need to be turned on.
To enable the “multilib” software repository, open up the /etc/pacman.conf file in your favorite text editor (as root). With the file open, find “multilib” and remove the # symbol from in front and the lines directly below.
When done editing, save the edits and close the text editor. Then, re-sync Arch Linux with the official servers using the command below.
sudo pacman -Syy
Finally, install the latest release of Steam on your computer.
sudo pacman -S steam
Fedora/OpenSUSE
Steam works on both Fedora as well as OpenSUSE. Users can install Steam on these operating systems out of the box. That said, this release of Steam doesn’t work as well as the flatpak release. We suggest installing the Flatpak version of Steam instead.
Flatpak
To get Steam working via Flatpak, you’ll need to install the Flatpak runtime as well as configure the Flathub app store. To set up the runtime, please follow our guide on the subject.
Once the Flatpak runtime is running, set up the Flathub app store. To set up the store, run the following remote-add command.
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
With the Flathub app store configured, use the flatpak install command to install the latest release of Steam.
flatpak install flathub com.valvesoftware.Steam
