Three pillars of Electronic Arts now DRM-free

No matter your personal take on the gaming giant – the many people, teams, and studios behind Electronic Arts brought us some of the most unforgettable experiences, marvelous worlds, and exceptional titles in gaming.
Each of today's three classic releases from Electronic Arts represents a pillar of game design: exceptional world building, mastery in storytelling, an admirable understanding of the balance between scope and focus. Straight from the EA Games vault, making their DRM-free debut on GOG.com, are:



Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition — the birth of a universe. A complex, extensive universe of raw fantasy and imperfection which spawned countless works reaching far beyond gaming - from graphic novels and novelizations through tabletop games and more. The Dragon Age universe is among the most ambitious fantasy settings ever created, and if you'd like to get more acquainted with the universe, turn up the fantastic soundtrack and take a look at the comprehensive guide to Dragon Age by Kotaku.

Dead Space is a glance at a gritty, hard sci-fi world in a state of irreversible disrepair. This is a game where the horrors lurking around the corner are just as disturbing as ghosts of the past. The glimpses are few, but they meticulously paint a vivid world of dark, scientific wonders and despair – a world you barely know, but a world nonetheless worth saving. A world you will remember. Check out the animated comic prologue available here, as well as the OST on Spotify.

SimCity 3000™ Unlimited is more than the sum of its parts. It's neither the biggest nor the most elaborate in the series, but it's success lies in balancing complexity and accessibility to deliver truly exceptional and welcoming gameplay. It doesn't hurt that you'll spend countless hours listening to a wonderfully jazzy soundtrack (also on Spotify!). Whether you succeed or stumble, one thing is certain: your stay in SimCity 3000 will be… nice.



Experience three pillars of game design by Electronic Arts – the marvelous worlds, unforgettable storytelling, exceptional gameplay – <span class="bold">Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition</span>, <span class="bold">Dead Space</span>, and <span class="bold">SimCity 3000&trade; Unlimited</span> are now available, DRM-free on GOG.com!

DRAGON AGE ORIGINS! GO GRAB IT NOW! INFINITE FUN!

Dragon Age 2 however.. might literally be the worst game I've ever played.
Uh.... Cool release?

Gog, are you sure you got permission for these games? :P
It seems beyond EA to do release them here.

Also, go and grab the DA toolset and other goodies as well!

EA realized after all, that money from sales is more important than segregation of services and exclusivity ;)

You know, it's funny how EA is starting more "modern" games while other publishers haven't even signed up yet. Different mindsets. We live in a weird world.

I also like that Simcity 3K is only released now. It took them this long to part with it. It seems to be of much value to EA ;D

Dead Space and Dragon Age on GOG?

My reaction.

What's next? A PC port of Red Dead Redemption?

Prrhaps an actually properly optimized working port of Arkham Knight?

Or maybe? No it's impossible? Half Life 3?!

htown1980: And people were just complaining.... I guess they will still complain.
"Where's my Linux version?!?!?!!?" ;) =P
In my opinion one of the greatest games of all times.
Alright, I went ahead and bought all 3. I was kinda iffy on Sim City 3000, but I suspect it's probably worth it. I've never actually played it before, though.
Nice! Can we have American McGee's Alice and Alice: Madness Returns? xD
*droool*

Oh, my poor wallet! Well played, GOG!
Bought all 3 games. Thank you for releasing them here!
Isn't it a bit late for April Fools' jokes? Kind of obvious too, DA:O released on GOG, come on! Joke is on you, I`m not that gullible.
WOAH~!

Hey there, GOG... easy there... I didn't really belive you could get this games here...

But one, curious, question - Origin has a nasty habit of scanning and forcing EA games on itself... Will it do the same with GOG versions of Dragon's Age?

Could you be more specific?
