Is unity web player out now for linux? or When will it be release?
I have linux distro cinnamon with raring.
Im very interested in playing Shadowgun Deadzone which needs a unity web player
It’s not out and there’s no indication it will ever be released, particularly given the recent news about Chrome and plugins.
Unity Technologies do not provide a Unity Web Player for Linux browsers. I also haven’t heard any plans on doing so.
Workaround:
Previously Linux users tried to install Windows versions of internet browsers to run the Unity Web Player using Wine.
The Pipelight project has made a plugin for native Linux browsers. It still uses Wine, but at least you won’t deal with Windows versions of internet browsers. See the community set up wiki page - http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/Running_Unity_Web_Player_on_Linux_using_Pipelight
Unity 5 will have a Web version for Linux, in that projects can be exported as WebGL + JavaScript, with no more plug-ins needed.

P.S. I suggest adding this tidbit to any more new queries about Unity 3D Web Player on Linux. I know there are lots of questions about it on here.
