Since GOG is actually owned and operated by CD Projekt, of course, it&rsquo;s not exactly a massive shocker.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What is interesting about this, however, is that The Witcher 2 is launching 100% DRM-free, just like the rest of GOG&rsquo;s catalogue. BUT WAIT, THERE&rsquo;S MORE. As a special offer, GOG is also chucking in a free game with orders, offering one of five classic RPGs &ndash; Gothic 2 Gold, Realms of Arkania 1 + 2 (as one bundle), Realms of Arkania 3, Divine Divinity, or Beyond Divinity. &nbsp;BUT WAIT, THERE&rsquo;S MORE. You&rsquo;ll also get the game&rsquo;s soundtrack as well as four extra songs that didn&rsquo;t make the final cut, 10 avatars for GOG&rsquo;s forum, a digital art book, 10 HD wallpapers, and a photo tour of CD Projekt&rsquo;s RED offices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You can preorder the game right now, and get some of that bonus stuff immediately.&nbsp;<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Retro games site set to add non-retro release<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-pc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8623"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8623\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
