Creator of the popular free and open source video game library manager Playnite has a positive update on a Linux version, with plans for it during 2026.

Back in February, GamingOnLinux covered the latest update from the creator on their plans for it, where they noted "To sum this up, Linux version is definitely something I plan to work on in future, it's just going to happen later than originally planned.".

So it is like the Heroic game launcher?

I believe more like Lutris?

I don't use it for launching anything - so I cannot compare on that front - but as my definitive catalogue and organization tool as it plugs in to basically every library. I even have it hooked up to my instance of RomM.
