Confirmed.

The day has finally come and the holy grail of classic gaming has arrived on GOG.com. Welcome, Lucasfilm games! You are among friends, here! We're proud to announce our team-up with ©Disney Interactive that allows for the DRM-free release of 20+ classic titles from the cult-classic developer. We know you waited long for this moment, so we want to reunite you with those golden oldies with as little delay as possible. Today, to start with a bang, we are releasing a selection of 6 acclaimed titles from Lucasfilm's most famous gaming franchises, so that the Lucasfilm/Disney catalog on GOG.com is made impressive from day one. Here are the great titles you can get right away:

<i>Star Wars</i>&trade;: X-Wing Special Edition - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!
<i>Star Wars</i>&trade;: TIE Fighter Special Edition - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!
Sam &amp; Max Hit the Road (Windows + Mac + Linux!) - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!
The Secret of Monkey Island&trade;: Special Edition
Indiana Jones&reg; and the Fate of Atlantis&trade; (Windows + Mac + Linux!)

Note that numerous Lucas titles, including 3 from the launch lineup (Star Wars®: X-Wing Special Edition, Star Wars®: TIE Fighter Special Edition, Sam & Max Hit the Road), are available digitally for the first time ever, ready to play with no fuss on modern operating systems. With more fantastic titles headed for our Lucasfilm/Disney catalog, you can expect to see Lucasfilm games popping up frequently on GOG.com in the coming months.

Did anyone try these Windows only LucasArts releases in Wine?

I've waited for this day for so many years. Even if it were just TIE Fighter and Fate of Atlantis, I would be happy, but 20+ "CLASSIC" titles? Not even Episode 1 shovelware, but more real games on the way? I seriously want to give everyone at GOG a hug. Thank you so much!!

Way to go GoG mates´.

Gotta admit, wasn't expecting this when you announced a new publisher.

Well done.

Kudos

HypersomniacLive: And look at that - we bought the exact same games - funny coincidence, or great minds think alike?
hehe - maybe...but tell me - was twiddling with ScummVM settings to enable Roland MT-32 music was first thing you did after installing Indiana Jones? If yes is the answer - I agree with your statement :-P

I was somehow forced to buy only 2x5.99 games instead 5.99&9.99 as I hit the bottom of my card. Luckily my wife came home few hours later with a pair of new jeans - so I'm safe to recharge my Visa to buy (let me quote her) "yet another game you will never play" :-)

Huzzah! I've been secretly hoping for this day ever since Disney took over from a certain franchise ruiner... Nice to see it finally came! :D

...Although having said that none of these are the specific Lucasarts games I'm after, oh well certainly not gonna complain... Only a matter of time now I assume till we get the rest of the catalogue~

(and I'm sure I'll eventually end up with most of these come a sale anyway... )

You can enjoy playing games and simply enjoy owning games as part of a collection.

It is less frustrating not to play a game because you do not want / lack time than because you have lost it or it no longer works.

Umm... I haven't installed it yet (though did download it, and will today), but that sounds pretty much what I had in mind to do once I'm ready.

Cheers for the chuckles, great image to start the day. ;-D

Excellent news! Congratulations on this success, GOG!
Looks like my wishlist will be populated with A LOT of classic (and classy...) games now. :D

Was anybody else hoping that when the timer was up there would be a day of Star Wars and Indiana Jones Music on the main page of the site?
Posted October 29, 2014
Oh. My. God. This is a great success for you; congratulations; my dreams come true.

Really hope GOG's contract doesn't include only adventures and Star Wars titles, Outlaws is probably the more known of these other ones, but is nice to see people remembering games like Afterlife and Secret Weapons of Luftwaffe too
