Release the GOG Galaxy client for linux
Added by
herbwest Please release the GOG Galaxy client for Linux, because there are many penguins out there who would prefer to buy games on your site, but don't do so, because of the convenience of the Steam client. Sorry for my bad english, but I'm no native speaker ;)
sbritorodr Maybe making a CLI option like steamcmd it's just the minimum, at least we can make a frontend later using the CLI
sbritorodr Waiiting too. Anti-DRM philosophy goes pretty well with an open source platform as Linux. We, devs of some FOSS proyects on Linux, can also help the linux port. It's a shame since there is already Linux versions for games. <br /> <br /> Why don't partner with Epic and help release it with their platform avaliable, since EGS is officialy implemented in GOG Galaxy 2.0? <br /> <br /> Thanks if you read ths
ryantang waiting for good news
Volpe262 lol. lmao, even. still waiting
thegamerpc Really.. thank you for starting this up.

TroepHero Please make a linux client, Minigalaxy does not work for me, lutris always has issues with some programs as well and even Crossover has issues now with running GoG Galaxy. (yes I even emailed them, so they might fix it soon, but it would be nicer to have a supported client.) <br /> <br /> Definitely older games just work way better on GoG than Steam. <br /> <br /> Note : I am not missing basic Linux plugins, Steam works fine, <a href="http://Battle.net" class="light_un" target="_blank">Battle.net</a> runs perfect in crossover and many windows programs are 100% working.
ArneBab I’m using minigalaxy for the games where it works (i.e. for DEX, that’s an example of how unfree gaming on Linux should work: if you bought it, just click install, click play, and it works). Would it be an option to support minigalaxy instead of trying to port GOG Galaxy?
Cap.Kappy I haven't really regretted using Linux as my daily driver instead of Windows 10, but I don't like how Steam is so good when it comes to Linux support, but GOG is not catching up with them.
Cap.Kappy I really like supporting GOG when it comes to their DRM-free philosophy and it & Steam are my go to places for PC games, but I much prefer playing games on Steam in Linux compared to GOG because they haven't made a native linux version of GOG Galaxy. I know tools and apps like Lutris and Heroic Games Launcher (the one I mainly use) exist, but I'm very concerned about my save data and cloud saving. Please release a native GOG Galaxy client on Linux.
Aphotica Even Valve is moving to Linux with Steam Deck and SteamOS, even AMD is making their firmware open source! Come on, guys!
Aphotica What do we have to do to get you to release the GOG Galaxy client for Linux?
Freniere Amazing. I gave up on GOG years ago, when it became clear that they would never offer Linux support. Today I was reminded that GOG exists, so I came back here to check. Made the right call!
rodrigofapp I'm using Linux now. Windows 10 was too slow in my PC. I wish I could play all games I have on my Linux.
CreepyLPYT C'mon GOG, I don't want to download all of my games manually and launch them from hand on Linux. <br /> GIVE US GOG GALAXY! <br /> PLEASE!
jonathankelt GOG is my absolute favorite games platform. <br /> Galaxy for Linux would be so cool.
DarknessKiller123 I have more than 100 games on my GOG library, but I stopped for the bad Linux support. I really want this to come back to GOG.
Nopraz It will be so awesome to have the launcher on Linux !
Richard_Mumolo Add me to the list of people that would like to purchase & play games from GoG on my Linux based, POP_OS gaming machine.
sjlawson A very large number of GOG games run on Linux with Wine or DOSbox. It would probably take 1 developer like two or three sprints to port GOG Galaxy to Linux.
karloff10 Haha the guys had even marked that one as work in progress in the past only to remove it then quite secretly
Haringat I think this has been no. 1 on the galaxy wish list since release and it is an electron app. What is holding anyone at GOG back from porting it over to linux?
EnderIce2 Yup, I wanted to buy games from this site because of DRM free, but I saw that there's no GOG Galaxy client on Linux and I gave up. I will stay on Steam, at least I have support for Linux there.

poseidon84 I stopped buying stuff on GoG now, because it is so much easier to buy on steam and play than it is to buy on GoG and use wanky apps and methods to make it run on linux. Just release a simple stupid launcher on linux or make it open source so I can compile it myself.
Torolas Lutris' experience is nowhere near as slick & functional as Galaxy.
folgoris I would really appreciate it for my steam deck
Griggs305 DRM-Free platform but no Linux support? Wat..? C'mon GOG.
KoKINGoK Try Heroic Games Launcher on Linux, it has Wine and Proton integration too, or Lutris as mentioned below. I do hope for at least an official GOG thin galaxy integration someday, but at least there is software that works great right now!

MarSanMar I still waiting for Linux client... Greetings from EndeavourOS
xman1 I forgot to mention... Lutris will let you run many different types of runners. The Glorious Eggroll guy makes a specific one for Lutris directly and it is an automated download. If you had a Linux native GoG Galaxy client, you would have none of these options for your games.
xman1 I'm not sure I like this.... How would the GoG client work exactly as most games are Windows? And the next question is... Why not just let Lutris handle it? Lutris has a GoG Galaxy plugin and will handle all your games for you for GoG. I am not seeing an advantage to a Linux Client here. I see it as a disadvantage over tools like Lutris unless you simply want to use it for Linux only games. No way are GoG going to add say a Proton client to it. Maybe I am thinking wrong, but I just don't see the advantage. <a href="https://lutris.net/games/gog-galaxy/" class="light_un" target="_blank">https://lutris.net/games/gog-galaxy/</a>
AHemlockLies I'm beginning to question my insistence on buying games through GOG. You clearly have a huge amount of support and desire for a Linux client. You consistently do NOTHING while Steam not only supports it, but actively attempts to further gaming on Linux. We don't expect you to make your own Proton or integrate it. Just give us a version of GOG Galaxy that can at least *manage our Linux games*.
GabberFox It would be great to have gog galaxy native on steam deck!
enyz Totally right
Faustrecht80 Totally agree. Linux Client pls.

definv2 GOG Galaxy client would be convenient. <br /> <br /> GOG Galaxyは便利だからLinuxで使えるようになったらいいなと思う

ilikemyanon I just switched to Linux and want your DRM free store on here. Please add a client

Thanaquil I have seen so much companies dying like this. No Linux client. No Silicon client. After two years of M-Processors and the SteamDeck. Windows-PC is for companies. Not for Gaming anymore. Everybody can see this. Your actions shout out so loud - i can not hear what you want to tell me. - More or less translated to english. I will go with steam. This Ship is sinking. I will not invest anymore into this till i see where this leads to. And i have a bad feeling.

deides Yes please! GOG is about non drm and linux is about escaping the evil mchinations of apple and microsoft. this makes complete sense.
