Lucasfilm strikes back.

January 27:
It's been a long weekend for Star Wars™ fans among us. Today marks the return of Lucasfilm on GOG.com: WAVE II, with the final batch of three Star Wars™ titles:

A 20% launch discount awaits those who join the fight against the dark side in the next 72-hours with three new releases:
Star Wars™ Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II
<i>Star Wars&trade;</i> Republic Commando
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade; Starfighter&trade;

As the Wave II timer ticks down to a zero for the last time, one of the most exciting weeks in the history of GOG.com comes to a close. We couldn't be happier with the series of amazing titles we added to our catalog this week, and we're proud to have teamed up with ©Disney Interactive to finally restore six iconic Star Wars™ games back into the hands of gamers exclusively on GOG.com.

January 22:
The time is now! Lucasfilm strikes back with three more Star Wars™ classics available now on GOG.com! This means the exclusive GOG.com digital premiere of two more spacefaring titles:
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade;: Rogue Squadron - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade; Rebellion - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!

<i>Star Wars</i>&trade; Empire at War: Gold Pack is now also available for purchase, DRM-free with a 72-hour, 20% launch discount!

The timer is still ticking, so stay tuned for one more reveal from ©Disney Interactive and GOG.com!

January 20:
A long time ago in a galaxy near you, ©Disney Interactive and <B>GOG.com</B> teamed up to bring you the holy grail of classic gaming: six Lucasfilm cult-classics were added to our DRM-free catalog, including three titles which saw their digital premiere on GOG.com. We also made a promise to bring you many more cult-classics in the future and, believe us, we did not forget.

Today, with great pride and joy, we're excited to announce Wave II of Lucasfilm games on GOG.com! Starting right now, six new Star Wars™ classics are available in our DRM-free Lucasfilm/Disney catalog. This includes three amazing titles available, for the first time in digital distribution, exclusively on GOG.com:
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade;: X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade;: X-Wing Alliance&trade; - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade; Galactic Battlegrounds Saga - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!

We're also celebrating the DRM-free release of these Star Wars™ games with a 72-hour 20% launch discount:
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade; Battlefront&trade; II
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade;: Dark Forces
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade; Knights of the Old Republic&trade; II: The Sith Lords&trade;

Just in case you missed your chance last time, you can grab three more Lucasfilm classics for the same 20% discount, until Friday, January 30, at 1:59 PM GMT!
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade; Knights of the Old Republic&trade;
Indiana Jones&reg; and the Fate of Atlantis&trade;
The Secret of Monkey Island&trade;: Special Edition

Our Lucasfilm/Disney is made that much more impressive today thanks to our team-up with ©Disney Interactive. The 6 new Star Wars™ releases, which include 3 digital premieres exclusively on GOG.com, are barely the beginning. We're not saying more right now, but we know the wait will be worth it for six great reasons - keep watching the front page and stay tuned for more exciting Lucasfilm titles releasing on GOG.com when the timer strikes zero!

I'm still waiting for the adventure games. I could give a toss about this Star Wars stuff.

Hopefully we start seeing LA's classic P&C adventures and stuff like Outlaws soon/next.

I'm finally gonna come out and say it: I have no idea what you think this sentence means. "Our Disney catalog is made that much more impressive thanks to Disney agreeing to put their games in our catalog?" I mean, yeh ...

Star Wars–related products are obviously the tribbles of our days and we need more than one sun to get rid of them...it took LucasArts eleven years(!) to publish their first SW-PC-Game ("X-Wing"), because they had better things to do (producing some of the greatest Computeradventures ever made, for example)...if this flood in black and gold goes on, it will take Disney only a few months to transform GOG into one of their Money Stars...don't make it so!

Is it worth sharing these tweets for those concerned or am I just being spammy? ;)

Seth: "Stay tuned!"

Thank you very much GOG.COM team!!!!! There are so many great Star Wars games on your website now, you really choose amazing classics! I'm looking forward to seeing Jedi Outcast & Academy here soon aswell.

Awesome that there's finally a version of the first Jedi Knight game for modern machines... :) (Like AvP, the game ran fine, but the menus were more than a bit glitchy with the classic retail/disc version.) Install, click, play - thank you GOG! :)

Couldn't agree more!

I'm glad GOG is releasing more Lucas Arts games, but I am disappointed that there were no adventure games in the mix. This makes me think it will be months before we see anything adventure related.

Absolutely, especially for folks like me, who do not have Twitter (and do not plan to have).

Just sign up for this cause! ;-) Give Seth some feedback.

Okay so this was a big Star Wars push, but can we have a number of the other classics next... Please.

Thanks! Noo, it's not spammy! Tried to tweet him not sure I managed that :)
Let's stay tuned then... I'll try that.

You have my eternal gratitude GOG. Many of these games I either missed but wanted to play, or had many great memories with (90's kid here!).

All I can think of in the Star Wars department now, from games I played at least, would be the both Episode 1 Racer, and most importantly for me, Shadows of the Empire. I have a feeling that might be a bit though after this crazy wave, but it will be worth the wait.

I wonder, could you ever port the entire Rogue Squadron series to PC, even though many were console only? Most notably of course, Rogue Squadron II Rogue Leader (Gamecube launch exclusive), and Rogue Squadron III Rebel Strike:

I can't wait for Shadows of the Empire though!

I bought every single game in Wave 1 and 2! Can't wait for 3!

This was a cool wave, but I'm already waiting for the next! ; )

(p.s: GOG, you haven't forgotten Rebel Assault games, right?)
Posted January 27, 2015
Let me start out by saying I'm OVERJOYED that we are getting LucasArts & LucasFilm games on GOG. That being said, PLEASE BRING ON THE ADVENTURE GAMES! 20 Star Wars games are awesome, but what about:

--Full Throttle
--Day of the Tenticle
--Maniac Mansion
--Various Indiana Jones games
--Various Monkey Island games

(We did get Sam & Max, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, and Grim Fandango, so I am SUPER happy about those)
