Quote Since all our focus has been needed on this free upgrade for PC, regretfully, the SteamOS version of the game has been cancelled. We hoped to have had that version ready by the time Valve had officially launched it later this year, but together with WBIE, it was decided that our limited resources were better dedicated to making the PC version the best it possibly could be. In our judgment that’s both what you PC players deserve, and what the PS4 version needs for the August release. We’re hoping that instead, you will enjoy the updates coming next month in Gauntlet: Slayer Edition as much as we do ourselves!

A developer has posted on the Gauntlet Steam forums about Gauntlet: Slayer Edition, a free upgrade to Gauntlet. In the same post the developer noted that the SteamOS version has now been cancelled due to limited resources.You can read the full post here So, that's that then, no Gauntlet for the penguin crowd it seems. I've done a quick scan of the Steam forums and it seems some people did pre-purchase the game due to the earlier promise of a Linux port. You might already be familiar with my attitude towards pre-orders and pre-purchases but I'll give you a small reminder: DON'T FRICKING DO IT.This should be a good example of what could happen if you do not follow the mantra "don't buy before it's out". Hopefully the folks who bought early can get the game refunded.
