CrossOver Linux, an application based on Wine that allows users to install popular Windows applications and PC games on a Linux computer, has reached version 13.1.3 and brings only a couple of improvements.

CrossOver is getting regular updates, and its developers are trying to integrate more features with each new version, but in this case this is just a small maintenance update to ensure the proper compatibility with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

According to the changelog, an incompatibility between the version of libxcb shipped with CrossOver and the Ubuntu 14.04 one has been resolved, which means that the application should now work properly on the most recent iteration of the latest OS from Canonical.

Also, support has been added for Blizzard's Battle.net Desktop Application, which means that it should now work with this version of CrossOver. This problem seems to persist with the most recent Wine, but it will most likely get fixed there as well.

CrossOver Linux is capable of running a wide range of Windows software and games. To see if your favorite application works with CrossOver, please check the What Runs section on the official website.
