Connect your Steam account and grow or jumpstart your GOG.com library.


UPDATE: Last chance to grab your games from the original list! Make sure to get them until June 8, 12:59 PM UTC.

Want more games? We've got more games! Three new titles are now available through GOG Connect:

- Kona
- Defender's Quest
- Door Kickers

You can get them until June 13, 1:59 PM UTC.



Today, we're launching a new program called <span class="bold">GOG Connect</span>. The premise is simple: connect your Steam account and add your eligible games to your GOG.com library.

Whether you're checking us out for the first time or have been with us for a while, <span class="bold">GOG Connect</span> gets you DRM-free versions of your games, digital extras, and a whole lot of freedom of choice (like whether you go with the GOG Galaxy client or not). It gets you our take on game ownership, and we say: why buy the games more than once?

Thanks to our awesome partners including Deep Silver, Harebrained Schemes, Jonathan Blow's Number None, TaleWorlds and more, you can now add more than 20 games to your GOG.com library if you previously purchased them on Steam.

The full list of games will always be available on connect.gog.com, starting with these and more:

- The Witness
- FTL: Faster Than Light
- The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut
- Galactic Civilizations 3
- Trine Enchanted Edition
- Saints Row 2
- Shadowrun Returns
- The Witcher: Enhanced Edition


While <span class="bold">GOG Connect</span> will stick around, the available games will come and go. These are limited-time offers made possible by participating developers and publishers, so stay tuned as we bring new titles onboard in the future (and grab your copies before they go away)!


For a bit more library-building, a bunch of our favorite titles will also be discounted up to -85% all week long, including The Witness, Saints Row: The Third, System Shock 2 and more. You can check out all the deals here. The sale will last until June 6, 12:59 PM UTC.

People (me) are probably battering the service with excited refreshes. People (you) should stop doing that so other people (me) can get their (my) games.

:D

Seriously, I'm not even angry it's not working. It's to be expected, I'm sure the traffic right now is unmatched.

Nice feature!

I couldn't get the language of the initial Connect page to change to English from something that looked Russian'ish to me, but the green connect button resulted in my account being successfully connected. Now it won't change to English from German, which must be based on geolocation.

However, the games I have at Steam in the list at the bottom of the page (Braid and VVVVVV) are not being detected. I've tried refreshing a good few times.

Dear GOG,

This is great but I already have the games on offer today. If you could please hurry up and make these games available:

Darksiders
Fear 2
Grid
Hitman 2
Mortal Kombat
Risen 2
Sacred 2
Underrail
Vampire Bloodlines
The X series

No rush, just whenever you get to it.

Your pal,

<-------

Yeah, same here. It's not detecting listed games I have but I guess they'll get around to it.
Posted June 01, 2016
still ain't working. it just connects and times out :(
Posted June 01, 2016
The connect feature isn't working for me, I take it the servers are being hammered?

As someone who wants to switch to primarily using GOG but has too much of an investment in Steam, I think this is a fantastic move and I really hope you guys continue to get more partners for it.

This is absolutely awesome to offer! Thank you gog!

Although the detection seems a bit off, I've got GalCiv 1-3 on steam but it's not detecting it, as well as Project Zomboid, Shadowrun, Saints Row, Breach & Clear, VVVVVV, Braid and Xenonauts. Along with a few titles that are marked as a check mark as well. Oh well, I can wait! =)

edit: Works fine now! Thanks again for the awesome feature!

Hey folks, if you're having trouble importing your games – try setting your Steam account settings to public, not private. This should help at least in some cases!
Posted June 01, 2016
Gog you sly foxes, you did this because you couldn't release Senran Kagura:Shinovi versus on the same day as steam. I'm onto you.

Good job. Good job.

Your move Steam.

It doesn't work for me either, I did set my profile "Public".

I fear we could have overloaded their service and brought it to its knees ^^. Many of us seem to be interested, it's a great feature.

Aha! I changed my Privacy settings to "Public", unticked the box that kept my Inventory private anyways, and now I'm getting a possible timeout error instead - "Oops, something went wrong. Please try again."

Progress! I was never so happy to see an error message. It means there's something there to go wrong. :)

For me it picked up:

Braid
Galactic Civilizations III
FTL: Advanced Edition
Mount & Blade
Project Zomboid
Saints Row 2
Shadowrun Returns
Trine Enchanted Edition
VVVVVV
Xenonauts

So Galciv should be working at least.

I'm getting an error everytime I try to link up my steam account.

Clicking sign in through Steam gives me an error;

"error": "bad_request",
"error_description": "Invalid redirection uri"

Any ideas?
