Plus they choosed a publisher for the current promo who only has 8 games ( 2 still in EA ) in the Gog catalog .

According slightly broken layout on mobile phone I'd say that Xmas sale is closer than around the corner :)

If God of War (2018) is going to be GOG's only big release for this Winter Sale (and it seems like it is), then that wouldn't be enough to carry the sale strongly starting from this week and then all the way up until the end of December.

On the other hand, it's very odd that no usual weekly sale has been posted by now, which almost certainly means that a new, but non-standard, non-weekly is coming today or tomorrow or Wednesday.

Maybe GOG will do something like a "Warm-Up to the Winter Sale (but this is not the Winter sale)" sale.

The Hack & Slash Sale however lasts an additional day beyond that, which to me indicates that Thursday is when the winter sale will kick off.

And i'm going to say Friday the 8th because it's the weekend and everyone's more willing to throw money on junk during the weekend.

I guess there will be 4 free games in total. One per week :)

i see you are having fun =)

My guess is that it will start Thursday 14th.

I think we have been mislead by sales ending days before so I'd say the 11th seems most likely to me. Although I recall one week pre-sales when they did that so if there is a pre-sale then the sale date might be a week after that starts (I think Monday and Wednesday have been the most common start days).

Wingspan has a new DLC release on the 12th, I would love to see a special bird themed event for that :). Not likely to happen, though. A special Sony Sale with the new release before the main Winter Sale seems possible or as a special themed day or weekend during the sale. I'll guess this weekend (starting Friday) before the big sale starting on Monday.

Going off the last 2 years trend, +1 with the others on Monday, Dec 11, 2023.

If not, then Wednesday Dec 13 or Thursday Dec 14. Somewhere that week.

I question the use of the current sale timers as a predictive mechanism. There are usually some promos that overlap with a big sale.

New promo . It will ends on the 13rd .

Monday is probably the day in most cases... I'm not sure if not-ended or parallel sales are any problem for GOG today. Rrecently they are permanently transferring games from one active sale to another (with no visible impact on discount/price).

you're out =)

sorry , i'm bored
