May the 4th come to GOG.com!

Star Wars Day™ is near, a time when the world comes together to celebrate the long, long history of a galaxy far, far away. And so it is, once again we combine forces with Lucasfilm and Disney to join in on upcoming May the 4th celebrations the way we know best: with new releases, a classic Digital Premiere, and peecha chakka no wookie boonowa tweepi Saleo. Ho, ho, ho, hooo.



What do we have in store this week?



-- <span class="bold">Star Wars: Rebel Assault I &amp; II</span> - a new digital premiere. The famous live-action, FMV rail shooter returns - blast through the ranks of the Galactic Empire, revisit familiar movie locations, and experience the rebel assault. Both of the classic titles come in one DRM-free package for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux!



-- Collector's CD-ROM editions of: <span class="bold">Star Wars&trade; X-Wing</span> and <span class="bold"><span class="bold">Star Wars&trade; TIE-Fighter</span></span>. The space-flight simulators finally become complete exclusively on GOG.com. The Collectors Edition, often considered the absolute re-release, combines upgraded graphics with the classic MUSE sound system, and a refined flight engine. It's a free upgrade to all of you that own it, and comes with every new purchase as well.




-- <span class="bold">Star Wars: Jedi Knight II - Jedi Outcast</span> and <span class="bold">Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy</span> now on GOG.com. Are these the best lightsaber swingin', force-pushin' simulators ever made? Search your feelings, you know it to be true.




-- Two big bundles, with every remaining Star Wars™ game on GOG.com:
<span class="bold">Blaster Bundle</span> - with 7 titles including the upgraded Star Wars X-Wing & TIE-Fighter series, and more Lucasfilm games brought back into the digital world from old CDs and dusty floppy disks.
<span class="bold">Saber Bundle</span> - with 10 games at a flat 77% off, including Star Wars Battlefront II, Knights of the Old Republic I & II, the two Dark Forces games, and our two new completely new releases: Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast & Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy.

Grab your blaster, wield your saber, and celebrate the days counting down to May the 4th with us! The entire shebang will last until Thursday, May 7, 6:59 AM GMT.

Leroux: Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it should be possible to buy the bundle as a gift to yourself and then redeem only the games you want, so that you can give the others away or trade them in for something else? (Too late for you now though.)

Grargar: You are correct in what you are saying about how bundles work, but why is it too late for him? He bought the Blaster bundle, because he wanted everything in it and now he's pondering about the Saber bundle. I don't see any indication that he definitely bought it.
Ah, right, sorry. I added the last comment after taking another cursory glace at Hanglyman's post and I confused Blaster and Saber bundle, thinking the latter had been bought already.

Nope, it's too late. I only got the reply after I'd already shrugged my shoulders and bought them, not seeing any other option beyond paying double. :(

Before it's declared too late, have you downloaded any of the games from the Saber bundle yet?

Then, it's not too late. Don't download any of them, go here, select "order change (from regular to gift order)" as the problem type, explain the issue to support, and support should convert those 10 games into a giftcode. You should receive said giftcode in your e-mail, and you can then choose to redeem only the games that you really want, and give/trade the remaining ones to another person.

Hey, thanks a lot! I gave it a try, and hopefully they'll be okay with it. Much appreciated!

I used to have Jedi Knight + Mysteries of the Sith, I guess I must've sold it. I really really wanted it, because of Darth Vader having a saber battle against you on the cover. It was all lies!

No. There is normally no announcement before.
Posted April 30, 2015
And so beside the point whether today at 15:00 or later there will be more games on offer GOG.com?

Will there be? Nobody knows, there is no guarantee. It used to be that games were released on Tuesday and Thursday at 10:00 (GMT+0), but lately there are deviations like releases at 13:00 (GMT+0) or on other days.

Finally! Thanks GOG!

Thank you for your response. Maybe today something will give a new offer, if only it were some older games.
