Good old Games has been selling DRM free classic PC games since 2008. Over the weekend, a mysterious message appeared on the site, and its entire catalogue was inaccessible.
Dear GOG users,
We have recently had to give serious thought to whether we could really keep GOG.com the way it is. We’ve debated on it for quite some time and, unfortunately, we’ve decided that GOG.com simply cannot remain in its current form.
We’re very grateful for all support we’ve received from all of you in the past two years. Working on GOG.com was a great adventure for all of us and an unforgettable journey to the past, through the long and wonderful history of PC gaming.
This doesn’t mean the idea behind GOG.com is gone forever. We’re closing down the service and putting this era behind us as new challenges await.
On a technical note, this week we’ll put in place a solution to allow everyone to re-download their games. Stay tuned to this page and follow us on Twitterand Facebook for updates.
All the best,
GOG.com Team
GoG also told Shacknews that, “as the message on the site says, this doesn’t mean GOG is gone :).”
