GOG Connect - Get DRM-Free versions of Steam games!

Moon54

GOG.com have just released a fantastic free service called GOG Connect whereby you can get a DRM-Free copy of select Steam games that you already own!

Basically you can now link your Steam a/c with your GOG a/c, and GOG will scan it for the games that currently qualify for GOG Connect.
There are currently 20+ games in GOG Connect atm, e.g FTL. (See below)

This is a time-limited thing, on a game-by-game basis, but once you connect your a/c and click "Add Games" the game is added to your GOG library forever!
Here's a list of games that currently qualify on connect.gog.com, and more games should be added later;

• FTL: Faster Than Light
• Two Worlds: Epic Edition
• The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut
• Galactic Civilizations 3
• Trine Enchanted Edition
• Saints Row 2
• Shadowrun Returns
• Sherlock Holmes: Secret of the Silver Earring
• The Witcher: Enhanced Edition
• Breach & Clear
• Breach & Clear: Deadline
• Braid
• Surgeon Simulator 2013
• The Witness
• To The Moon
• Mount & Blade
• Xenonauts
• vvvvvv
• Bit.Trip Runner
• UnReal Gold
• Unreal Tournamnet GOTY
• Project Zomboid
• Broken Sword Shadow of the Templars

Note: The Steam API/GOG system seems to be under pressure at the moment, but things should calm down as the inital rush dies down. It may take a few trys to import & scan for all your qualifying games.

Btw, it looks like all the qualifying games are also on sale for 75% off until the 6th June; https://www.gog.com/promo/20160601_special_promo_gog_connect

Well done GOG, this is a fantastic addition to an already great service.

Great idea, but why no Witcher 2?

I'm guessing they'll add it in over time.
A DRM-free copy of the Witcher 1 & 2 can already be reclaimed by visiting;

Ah, cool. It just seems odd that it's not there since it is one of their own games, such as it is.

this working for anyone?

I was able to link accounts, but it gets stuck on PROCESSING YOUR REQUEST... before hitting WE COULDN'T REACH THE STEAM SERVICE RIGHT NOW.

Moon54

Don't worry, it definitely works, eventually.

I've just added 9 games to GOG but it took about 20 trys to get there.
When it finally scans correctly, don't forget to click the "Add Games" green button to add them to your GOG library.

Btw, it says there are only 5 days left to claim the games in the list.

Skerries

Looking for eligible games. Due to exceedingly high demand this may take up to several days, please check back later. Thank you for your patience.


days!?

Not sure if I should add my own account or my friends who have 100s more games than me and don't care about GOG. Hmmm...

Delighted with this. Had a few games added. I know we'll probably never be rid of DRM completely but it's nice to see some developers becoming more open to it by allowing people who bought restricted versions of their software to switch to their drm free versions.
