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 ;)
NLFD3S +1 and yes please ! :)
deluxequadrat Simply the fact that Steam puts so much effort into its Steam client for Linux shows that it's worth it.
Posag +1 - still waiting for Gog on linux
Kerek-N I think that with the EOL of Win10 it is a good time to get a GoG Galaxy for Linux, especially with Steam having such great support for Linux.
Lualey Would be extremely helpful
scullhead Yes, please release for Linux. I ditched Windows because Win11 wont install on my computer because it is "too" old - Win10 ran fine though...
Elmeri GOG Galaxy is one of my favourite game launchers due to its excellent tag system. And it doesn't work on Linux (running it via Bottles somewhat works but is very unstable). After ditching Windows, I've noticed I've started to prefer Steam over GOG due to how simple and fast it is in comparison. Please port Galaxy 2 to Linux, I really want to both own my games AND manage them in a convenient way.
AccelMR Please GOG!

NetX_G come on cd projekt we need gog galaxy on linux, btw add an input helper, my xbox controller does not play that well with linux mint but steam does change that, i will purchase silksong on gog if we get gog galaxy!
KihariJellywing I don't get why they can't be bothered to release for Linux, they claim to care about games and preserving them while refusing to make a clien for anything but windows, a product made by a company that goes against that goal.

Buntish33 For those who don't know:
As an alternative, you can use Heroic Game Launcher on Linux, and login to your Gog account and play, all games might not work but many do, you just have to test your games.
Hope this will help some people.
Maybe not the best but at least it's something.
mellon85 I restarted using gog after a long time to play Silksong, just to find out that Galaxy still don't support linux (my main platform) and can't sync cloud saves

aspiderweber Please! We beg of you! We would love GOG Galaxy!
kurotoshiro Like everyone I had to go back to using Steam to game on Linux, please add a Linux native client of GOG Galaxy, you're already using QT as a library so it's like it would be a complete rewrite

I switched to Bazzite over 5 months ago to be able to play without necessarily installing Windows 11. And I was surprised to see that my games run better than on my Windows. So I decided to download my games to Bazzite first, to see if it ran properly, and now I only buy SteamDB-compatible games. So please!
I love GOG and would love to be able to buy more games on it. But it's not native to Linux, which puts a brake on buying new games.
AGuyThatPlaysGames 100% in support of this, Heroic is a decent open-source solution for GOG, Epic and Prime but it doesn't have social features, achievements, GOG Mods, etc. and the store integration isn't as seamless as GOG Galaxy.

D4rkN0un0urs +1 make GOG Greater on main Linux Distros (Arch Linux, Ubuntu, Fedora,...)
TriForcePoWer I've been a strong supporter of GOG and would like to keep it this way, but since I've switched to Linux in April 2025 my preference is shifting towards steam again. Simply for ease of use.
As an advocate for DRM-free games and their preservation I would love for you to support an open source operating system. Considering recent developments in the industry, this might become the only way to hold onto these ideals.

Saberu I'm pretty sure that with the death of windows 10, more people will switch to linux. GOG, it's the best time to do that!

Darkwing33 90% of my game library is on steam over GoG for 1 reason. Steam took the time to support Linux. in fact Steam OS / steam deck are both running Arch Linux KDE. I'm puzzled by the fact for over a decade that a company like Gog proudly declare that your purchased game belongs to you and you can store the install files on your local drive. Sounds like advocate for real ownership and freedom. Yet despite multiple calls each year for over a decade users asking for a Linux port for Gog galaxy they stubbornly ignore the request. There are many many players that would collect in GOG instead of steam if they actually listen and make Linux compatible Galaxy. All you have to do is at least copy steam and release it for Arch Linux. Instead sticking with Windows platform only that works hard to push it's xbox pass over steam. Go open source and you will see the little time and money you have to spend to make Linux compatible Galaxy it would come back 100 fold from your customers picking you instead of steam. Grow some balls and some brains and add Linux support.

MrBear77 I would love to see this happen. Please GOG, let this come true.
KrispyKreme_2012 Proper linux support is the main reason I've continued to primarily use steam over the last few years. A linux version of Galaxy that has achievements, game hours, and cloud saves would make GOG my go to store for digital games.

Crylyte Boosting this
Napsterfelon With more people moving to Linux, this should be a must!
BabaYaga._.02 Wow its been 10 years since this request was added :/
pulloc Why does everyone still think that everyone wants to use Windows?
Even with the latest Wine, GOG Galaxy doesn't work.
