    I'm conflicted between happy nostalgia and ingrained suspicion that with EA there has to be some hidden evil hook.

    I don't see anything explicit about Linux support on the tore-pages, and no reviews are up on ProtonDB yet... Although given that they're older games, I expect the odds to be much better than average.

    The EULA mentions "consent to any personal data collected through my use of EA’s services being transferred to EA". Hopefully that's just boilerplate for stuff entered on their website etc.

    > To celebrate the Wing Commander community and its enduring passion for these games, anyone who previously owned a digital copy of the Wing Commander games on GoG or the EA App will receive the Anniversary Edition upgrade at no cost on their respective digital platform.

    That's... good. Maybe I've been too pessimistic.

    Most Ultimas can be played under Scummvm, and IV for free:

    Just use Vice to play it in any platform.
