With the celebrations of GOG’s 16th Anniversary, we are thrilled to announce our new initiative.

We’re launching the GOG Preservation Program – an official stamp on classic games that GOG has improved, with a commitment of our own resources to ensure their compatibility with modern systems and make them as enjoyable to play as possible.

This initiative was created to make games live forever and once again bring the utmost attention to what the center of our work has been for the last 16 years: video game preservation.

We begin with the re-release of 100 classic games from our catalog with updated, improved, or quality-tested builds, including masterpieces like Heroes of Might and Magic® 3, Resident Evil, and Diablo+Hellfire.

Visit our website dedicated to the Program to learn more:

The Video Game History Foundation has recently shared that 87% of games created before 2010 are inaccessible today. This is something that we cannot accept, and with the help of the gaming community, we are set on getting that number down to zero. 

We’ve put in great efforts to make it happen, and we truly believe that with the GOG Preservation Program, we can fight the dire situation of video game preservation and make games live forever.

Your opinion and feedback are invaluable to us. So please share your initial thoughts.

And lastly – thank you; your support and love for games make everything possible.
