Today we would like to introduce our Linux readers to the upcoming version of the Manjaro Linux operating system that is specially designed for gamers!
Meet Manjaro Linux Gaming, a special flavor of the popular Manjaro Linux that is built with the latest Arch Linux technologies, uses a highly customized Xfce desktop environment with a dark setup that makes it easy on the eyes, and comes pre-installed with some of the best open source software for gamers.
“I disabled Sleep Mode so your computer won’t shut down while you’re still playing games with a GamePad or watching a long cutscene,” the developer explained. “I’ve added a lot of editing tools for anyone who wants to make gaming videos or stream on Twitch.”

Manjaro Linux Gaming 16.06 is currently in development and the first good release will be made soon as part of the Manjaro Linux 16.06 “Daniella” operating system. It will bring you software projects like PlayOnLinux, Wine, OpenShot, Audacity, Kdenlive, OBS Studio, Mumble, Shutter, Conky Manager, and Skype for Linux.
Additionally, there will be many game emulation tools such as DeSmuME, PPSSPP, PCSX2, Stella, DOSBox, Dolphin Emulator, Yabause, ZSNES, PCSXR, Fceux, VBA-M, and Gens/GS. Terminal add-ons such as Color, ILoveCandy, and Screenfetch are also available, and you can also enjoy a Retro Conky theme on your desktop!
For added fun, Gabe Newell will watch you at the login screen, and if a game you want to play isn't running, the developer suggests installing Manjaro Linux Gaming alongside Microsoft Windows and dual-booting.
