# PristonTale EU for Linux
Version 0.5.2 installs, updates, repairs, and launches PristonTale EU through a
native Linux dashboard. Game files come directly from the publisher and are not
included in this archive.
## Install
Keep the archive and checksum file together, then run:
```text
sha256sum -c pristontale-eu-linux-installer-v0-5-2.tar.gz.sha256
tar -xzf pristontale-eu-linux-installer-v0-5-2.tar.gz
cd pristontale-eu-linux-installer-v0-5-2
./install.sh
```
The default installation directory is `~/Games/PristontaleEU`. To use another
disk or directory:
```text
./install.sh --install-dir "/path/to/PristontaleEU"
```
Existing installations at the previous default location are preserved during
upgrades. The installer adds **PristonTale EU** to the application menu and
installs the `pristontale-eu` command in `~/.local/bin`.
## Use
Open **PristonTale EU** from the application menu or run:
```text
pristontale-eu gui
```
The main launcher button automatically shows **Install**, **Update**, or
**Play** according to the managed game's state.
Version 0.5.0 is the self-update bootstrap. Future signed launcher releases are
checked in the background and appear as an **Update Launcher** action. Launcher
updates are staged separately from game files and retain the previous version
for rollback.
