Only a week after the previous 0.5.20 release, Lutris, a free and open-source gaming platform for Linux, has released version 0.5.21. One of the most notable additions is support for Valve’s Sniper runtime, allowing runners to execute inside the Steam Linux Runtime 3.0 container.

Lutris 0.5.21 also expands emulator support with new runners for ShadPS4 and Xenia. In addition, the Dolphin emulator runner now uses an AppImage build, resolving previous dependency issues with libavformat and simplifying deployment across distributions.

Valve is using Team Fortress 2 character names as codenames for their runtime library.
