The Wine Project, a compatibility layer that allows Linux and macOS users to run Windows applications, has released version 11.6, the sixth maintenance update in the stable 11.x series. Key updates include early work on reviving Wine’s Android driver.

The update resolves crashes and regressions affecting Diablo IV, Cyberpunk 2077, Minecraft Windows 10 Edition, Google Earth Installer, Mount & Blade: Warband, and HWiNFO 8.24.

For Linux gamers, Wine 11.6 addresses a regression from version 11.5 that prevented access to Diablo IV’s in-game shop menu and resolves ICU DLL-related crashes in games such as Cyberpunk 2077. Additional improvements include better DLL handling for Gecko-based browsers and enhanced DLL load order heuristics to support modded game setups.
