Jack into the underbelly of Hong Kong.

<span class="bold">Shadowrun: Hong Kong</span>, the newest entry in the revived tech-meets-magic universe, is available now for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com.

The Shadowrun renaissance continues in Shadowrun: Hong Kong the newest Kickstarted entry in the gritty cRPG series. If you're familiar with the increasingly impressive Shadowrun releases you should know what to expect - this time we're entering an Awakened Hong Kong, where life is cheap and everything is for sale. You're thrown into a high-tech-meets-magic corporate conspiracy, once again destined to navigate a complex network of contracts and social graces. If you're not yet familiar with the series, the Shadowrun experience is a mix of brilliant writing, a unique cyberpunk universe with a splash of magic, and challenging tactical combat. It's a cRPG lover's dream come true, and it seems we're not waking up anytime soon.

For more extra goodness, you can pick up the <span class="bold">Shadowrun: Hong Kong - Deluxe Edition</span>, complete with original soundtrack and PDF Art of Shadowrun: Hong Kong book. If you're not ready to make the commitment before trying the game, you can always upgrade later on.

Curse, deck or charm your way across the seedy underbelly of <span class="bold">Shadowrun: Hong Kong</span>, available now, DRM-free on GOG.com!

Stream watch:

Want to see the game in action? The MatCatPlays streaming pair will show it off tomorrow (Friday, August 21st) at Twitch.tv/GOGcom starting at 10pm GMT / midnight CEST / 6pm Eastern / 3pm Pacific. Jack in, jack out!

Is the install supposed to take very long? It's stuck at 2/3s for the past 20 mins now.

Yeah, I've got the same problem. Left it running for an hour but no progress. Guess I'm not playing this game just yet.

It shouldn't take this long I feel? Not to mention the HDD activity doesn't seem to be installing anything.

First time I cancelled the installation (after about an hour and a half) it only managed to write 300mb to the folder. I'm going to try getting it through Galaxy now, which sucks, cause I don't want to be using Galaxy.

I'm at 2 hours now, about 65% progress.

Mines currently at 7.46GB was 6GB before. Damn it GOG, fix the installer.

Myeah, I gave up on the installer after the third try. It might have worked but I felt that an hour and a half was way too long for me to be stuck at 2/3. Not really happy about this.

Finally done after 45 mins... Didn't think a game like SRR would take that long. Dragonfall surely didn't take that long.

I used the http download method with around 3 gb to download. When I started the installer it stated that a space of 11 gb is needed to install the game. I had no problem installing the game that way.

Seeing your post, I decided to check it out. Installing now. Looks like it's decided to hang at about 2/3 for me as well. I'll edit when it's done (if it's done before I have to leave).

*edit* Okay, finished. Took a total of about 9 minutes. Longer than some games, but not outrageous. Hung at 2/3 for about 4 minutes.

Tried downloading it through both regular internet and the downloader, that made no difference. Right now I'm running the installer again and I'm also trying out GOG galaxy. The odd thing is that the installer does appear to be writing files to the folder right now, but it's taking forever, and I've been stuck at 6,67GB for the past fifteen minutes.

I think my Witcher 3 installation was faster than this, which is ridiculous since TW3 is much more demanding.

The 6GB to 8GB installation writing seems to be insanely slow. After 8GB, it speeds up a lot and finishes in the next minute.

A big THANK YOU to GOG support (and qpOn in particular) for sorting out my missing code issue so quickly! :-D

I just installed SR Hong Kong on Linux Mint 17.2. The installation took around 8 minutes. I do not know your system specs, but if you install it on an old laptop for example it might take a while to finish the installation.

My installation is stuck at 2/3 through for the past 4 hours! Help! I'm installing from a backup copy cause I couldn't get it to download through Galaxy.
