[EDIT: September 9th, 2pm GMT]

Update 1.1 to the GOG Galaxy beta is now available for everyone! Enjoy the new features and remember to submit your feedback in the dedicated GOG Galaxy Beta forum thread and report any bugs at mantis.gog.com.


Rollback, friend search, pausing downloads, and more in the biggest update yet.

Have you tried the GOG Galaxy beta yet? This is an awesome chance to jump on board. Our DRM-free online gaming platform has already been tested by so many of you we can barely count, and today we're ready to roll out the first major patch with new features and plenty of quality of life optimizations.

Update 1.1 to the GOG Galaxy beta will bring the anticipated Rollback feature, allowing you to restore your game to prior states with just a single click. Game updates are now not only optional, but also reversible.

The weeks following our GOG Galaxy-powered release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt were a chance for the team to collect feedback and to work on perfecting the Client while addressing many of your top feature requests. The newest 1.1 update includes much-requested improvements to the friend system (making it easier to find and invite friends), pausing & resuming downloads, extended pre-installation options with more ways to configure your games, and an improved app UI and navigation. The entire client will now be more resource-friendly while also becoming faster.

The 1.1 update is available today for everyone enrolled to receive preview updates through GOG Galaxy, but it will also be rolling out very soon to the entire userbase. Those of you eager to test out the announced improvements today, can simply navigate to your GOG Galaxy settings screen and select the option to “Receive preview updates”.

To download the client and read about what’s new and improved in update 1.1, visit [url=http://www.gog.com/galaxy]www.gog.com/galaxy[/url]. Make sure to subscribe to the preview updates to try them out yourself, and as always, you can submit your problems and find new solutions on the dedicated GOG Galaxy Beta forum thread.

Please rollback the current chat system into the good old message system! Chat is infuriating!

Matruchus: Well the client is getting a bit more usefull at least. Will maybe try it in a year or two when it gets out of alpha testing phase.
This.

But does it actually work as well as GOG Downloader for actually downloading games yet? I didn't/don't see that in any of the patch notes. I guess it will still re-download anything you queue, without even checking to see if it's changed or not. It looks like it's still putting its temp files in the wrong places while downloading.

How to get the in-game overlay? It's there in settings but no shortcut is specified anywhere.

As far as I know, there is no in-game overlay yet, sorry.

Galaxy 1.1 still spams the Start Menu folder with unwanted and stupid things. Stop it!

Psiborg: The back/forward buttons are handy. Perhaps you could make them work with the back/fwd mouse buttons too - like on a website?
I Want to second this. I am always trying to use the mouse back/forward buttons and I get frustrated not having that functionality.

Also, just curious, but when is Galaxy coming out of beta? I thought that version 1.0 was supposed to signify a full release. I guess version numbers are more arbitrary than they used to be.

Wasn't 1.0 the first beta release? Before that there was only the alpha that came with AvP Classic 2000 and The Witcher Adventure Game. Have any other game received Galaxy multiplayer/Crossplay threatment since then?

From Galaxy page, two planned core features are still missing: Game overlay and Game inviting & joining. So at least one major build is to be expected, likely more. There's also the planned Linux port to consider.

Looks great so far. I like the fact that the list of installed games is small on the left hand side, and finally the Back button has been fixed :)

Maybe this has already been asked, but I am very curious when will the final version be released? I know you guys don't have any clear date, but some kind of road-map with milestones must exist. Would be great to hear at least something like "We aim to release it in Q1 2016"... or something.

But still, cheers for the great work you are doing.

Wouldn't recommend that GOG do that. If they did and went past schedule, there'd be a line of people waiting to give them grief for not having it done fast enough.

That's why I would be happy for something like aiming for next year, or something.

Does it still come with the feature to allow you to have your account stolen by Russians?
