Your journey to Night City is close at hand! As of today, you can pre-load all the necessary files to install Cyberpunk 2077 through your GOG GALAXY app. This way you’ll be able to dive into the most anticipated open-world RPG quickly on 10th December, when the grand premiere of the game takes place.

While we’re at it - take a look at our video below! We’ve created it along with the game’s creators to show you how super grateful we are that you’ve chosen to pre-order Cyberpunk 2077 on GOG.COM, where 100% of your money goes to CD PROJEKT Group.

We can confirm that offline installers will be available at launch, at 1 AM CET. We'll continue to immediately update them with the latest patches after the game's release.

You may have noticed the pre-load is getting updated - it's the 10GB release patch we've implemented now so you can enjoy a smooth launch. The update is 10GB BUT it actually implements changes to some of the existing files, meaning around 50GB of data has to be changed. That is why GOG GALAXY needs roughly 50-60GB of free space for the patch to successfully update.

Alternatively, you can uninstall the pre-load and install it again - that should also do the trick.

Lesser Blight Elemental: No, I play some proper smut when I'm in the mood. But when it comes to mainstream games, especially RPGs where I try to be immersed, I find it jarring and uncomfortable, just as I would IRL.

You sure? I played Witcher 2 and it had sex and nudity within minutes. Some of the actual porn I play has more restraint than that.

Only the sex bothers me, I'm not a soccer mom. And I didn't know it was supposed to be a defining aspect of the genre. And yeah, sorry to say, but that kind of thing can really sour me on a game. Maybe if it's one small part of the game that's tame like the club in Dragonfall, I can let it slide.

I'm not a moral crusader or anything, just trying to avoid material that I personally find uncomfortable in specific genres.

Tarhiel: Well, I don´t understand that, but I am not gonna judge.

This game definitely won´t be as that innocent part in Dragonfall club, so I guess you wouldn´t like it.

Witcher 2 - you´re right, that one scene right at the beginning was unavoidable, all the others are.
I have played all 3 of them and I don´t remember that there would be a compulsory sex scene in the first nor the third Witcher.
Yeah, I didn't imagine anyone would empathize with my weird hangups. Anyway, thanks. I'll have to give it a miss unless I become less prudish about mainstream games.

StingingVelvet: I can't imagine using offline installers for a brand new game this large and with surely many large patches to come. The time for a handy DRM free offline installer backup is a year or more down the road, when it's one big bundled game of the year edition.

toxicTom: They did offline installers for Witcher 3 five years ago. And patches. And the free DLC programme.
Unfortunately though they still did not manage to include the final patch (1.32) into the game as well ... years later.

I think it just added support for Simplified Chinese or something like that.

Are you implying that patch is less important and can be therefore neglected? Because your words suggest you imply exactly that :/

Wow, what did I just read??

I'm sorry that I didn't speak anything earlier, but I wasn't interested in Cyberpunk so I left this thread for later. Now that I did read it... I feel like throwing up.

I'm appalled at the depths Gog and CDPR are sinking to entice people to use their stupid "optional"-but-everyday-less-so client. I'm not even talking about them restricting preloading to Galaxy. Despite that being a dick move, anyone in this day and age should know not to preorder a game.

But gating content behind an online check, Gog? Seriously? Despite you having done it right in older times, for example like in The Witcher 3 where the extras are free DLC?

You've been trying your best to make yourself irrelevant when compared to Steam, but this... this is in a whole other level. You and your sister CDPR are not only embracing whatever DRM you can get away with, now you're the ones actually deciding to put it in as a way to promote your damn client.

"He who fights monsters should see to it that he himself does not become a monster."
It's sad that Gog started as the champion of DRM-Free and now it's just another monster. Almost a Steam clone, but one that will never be better at being Steam than Steam themselves. So one that is irrelevant now that their last unique selling point (the DRM-Free pillar) fell. I guess I have no reason to buy any other game here and instead I should invest in storage to back up my offline installers while I can.

Well, at least I have games enough to last me a lifetime. But if it wasn't for that I'd be opening pirateBay in a new tab right now.

Great post and I very much sympathize. Btw, Zoom Platform, whilst small, has a surprising number of good games DRM-free and seems to be worth supporting as a fallback, given GOG's continuing slide over the DRM precipice. It also has some games that GOG doesn't, including the Duke Nukem games and AvP Gold.
A client is not that bad............. as long as it stays optional .... like i mentioned before.... i joined GOG before joining Steam, i read about the existence of Steam and Gamersgate in the GOG forums, thats why i tried both after i noticed they had lots of HOG and casualgames.

I also knew Steam had a client, also read many posts on that so it was obvious a client had to be used.

Anyway , GOG always said optional client, that is why i don't use it .... also hope it allways will stay optional, cause having to use clients is easy, everyone uses one , and also 99.90% has DRM, Gog is one of the very few who are DRM free and have an OPTIONAL client.

Good thing is i also have a huge backlog of DRM free games still to play , have to become 150 or more if i want to play every game once :D ( also have >400 drm free casual games)....

True... but GOG has prepaid paysafe , Steam also has prepaid Paysave .... gamersgate used to have it but it is gone now ....

Thanks for the heads-up. I think I checked it out a while ago and did not find too much stuff I would like, but now I think I should look at it again with more attention.
And Zoom might be small now but I think they're going to see a sudden influx of people fed up with Gog's latest crap. I'm not sure they could ever reach Gog's size (from when Gog was the store we wanted to support), but they still might secure a decent release now and again after said growth.

They take credit card and Paypal. Good enough for me. I always just use a credit card on GOG anyway, never had any issues.

You should also know this:

Donwload/install on Galaxy: 60GB
Donwload/install for offline files: 104GB

It's as lazy packaging and anti-user-friendly as it can get. You actually get better (and smaller) options via certain "repackers" as they compress the files more and at least split out languages/localizations and extra files.

Are you serious? That is ridiculous. I'll be adding that to my list of reasons not to buy it ...

It's just another little way of trying to push users towards Galaxy & punishing non-Galaxy users, along with there being no pre-load for non-Galaxy users even though there's no technical reason why they couldn't do so & they've done so for their previous games (FU for not using Galaxy; good luck downloading such a huge installer at launch while the servers are hammered and download speeds are at a crawl!) and the "bonus" content requiring online activation via Galaxy.

Properties on the game folder shows 59.6, and offline files with 25 files at 4GB + 1 at 3.5GB + setup 1MB (27 files in total).

I used Galaxy to pre-load and to test if I could play without Galaxy once installed and then download the offline files at first, but at 104GB I'm going to wait a long time before downloading these (if ever), especially since the game needs lots of patching up, like W3 needed.

EDIT: It seem to run without Galaxy, but I'm going to remove it (finally) and move the game folder and see what happens...
EDIT2: Yes, it runs like Withcer 3 - portable. And I'll worry about updates later. :)
