Hi, sorry to say the Monarch's Journey feature currently isn't available on Linux as some background tech it uses doesn't support the OS.

Hi there,
Just wanted to give some explanation on the Monarch's Journey and Linux situation.
We've never stopped supporting Linux as a platform. However we've previously been running some A/B-test on interface changes in the game - there should be a thread giving some more information on this somewhere on the main forum - and the way we've delivered these features to groups of players / control groups is through a 3rd party service.
When we adapted the featured ruler feature they tested out before and turned it into the Monarch's Journey we still needed to have a way to deliver the content on a scheduled basis without patching the game every second week (this is something we wouldn't have the resources to do). So we decided to continue using the same 3rd party service but in a slightly different fashion. Unfortunately the service that we're using doesn't have any Linux support so that makes it impossible for us to include that platform in the scheduled content. Hopefully you'll be able to enjoy the content to some extent by looking up the ruler's on Monarch's Journey and start your own playthroughs with the same characters through a custom game setup instead (it's possible to start at any date between 1066.9.15 - 1337.1.1 in a custom game).
Something I can't make any promises on yet but something we want to do is to later on patch the full schedule into the game when every monarch has been released. However this would require a bunch of resources to make code changes to the feature which we might not have when that day comes.

Sorry for the late reply. We finally managed to get a patch out where we put all of the currently released rulers for Monarch's Journey to be available for linux players. Please update to 3.3.3 to enjoy the feature.

Due to the underlying technology we're still unable to have future rulers roll out on a schedule for the Linux platform but unlocking all of the cosmetic items for CK3 should be well within reach with the current set.
