It's separate because it's not an add-on, DLC, or an extra. It is its own version. As others have mentioned, Nazi iconography is censored in Germany. I think the government makes an exception for educational media, which this is game (while enjoyable), clearly is not.

The thing I am not sure about is why people outside of Germany have the German version, but I guess it's easier to just provide it to everyone.
But if I change the language of say the new order I'll have the german version of that as well won't I? With all the censorship along with it?

It has been laxed a bit recently. You can get the uncensored version here in Germany as an option nowadays. By default you will still be offered the German censored version, but you can choose. It's different if you buy a physical copy since if it's a German version, it only has German language and censorship.

Edit: I've looked into my library and have a guess why they it this way: The Old Blood and The New Order have separate installers for the different languages but The New Colossus has a multilingual installer for the international version. So they made an extra entry because the German version is completely different and can't be included in the international installer.

I'm from Germany and own these games here on GOG. I can easily switch to the international versions and play them. But the international versions don't have German voiceover and subtitles.

Yeah, that link shows quite well that it is indeed a different product. If you have a physical copy bought from Germany, pretty much any WW2 game -- especially older ones, you do not have any possibility to play the uncensored version. It doesn't exist on the disk.
Magmarock, behind that link the relevant information is the table.
Zensierte Version - Censored version
Land: Deutschland - Country: Germany
Freigabe: Keine Jugendfreigabe - Age restriction: Not for minors (equivalent of R18+ in your country)
Unzensierte Version - Uncensored version
Land: Großbritannien - Country: UK
Freigabe: PEGI 18+ - Age restriction: PEGI 18+ (equivalent of R18+ in your country)

No you didn't didn't. I can download the the german version of other games are censored as well but new colosiss apparently can not be altered with a simple exe or something. I'm be asking support for further information.

Wait, what, why? I mean, of course you can ask, but I don't think you'll get an answer any time soon. They are busy with Cyberpunk 2077 returns at the moment. I have two actual issues open (not Cyberpunk 2077). The other one I solved myself and have asked that they close it a couple of months ago. They still haven't managed to do even that. I think it's a bit redundant to ask when you already have the information, but if you don't mind the wait, go for it.

In that case support is the way. You won't get official answers here. Only if someone finds an official document explaining it.
Luckily my Cyberpunk is fine. Nothing game breaking. But millions of people are refunding it and it takes time to process all the refunds. So they are pretty busy at the moment. But hey, when you eventually get the response (like I said, it will probably take time), share it here.
