GOG confirm they are working towards GOG Galaxy on Linux
a day ago
- GOG previously stated Linux is a major frontier; now they have hired a specialist and are actively exploring GOG Galaxy support for Linux.
- GOG's joint-CEO confirmed the company is investing time and effort into Linux support, but no specific plans or timelines yet.
- Currently, GOG offers Linux downloads for games via web store, but the Galaxy client has been missing. Users can use third-party tools like Heroic, which already support cloud saves and achievements.
- Some users question whether GOG will adopt Proton or develop native support, and note that Heroic already provides similar functionality.
- The community has been requesting Linux support for years, and this announcement is seen as positive but long overdue.
