Hi all i am looking for a active multiplayer RTS game or something active to play :)

On GOG?
Well, good luck with that...

Most people come here for the offline single-player experience. And many games don't have cross-platform multiplayer.
I wish you the best, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Not to leave you empty handed here's at least something.

There is a star system which GOG's playerbase has made as sort of home. Not exactly ''active'' but something you could check out if you have the game.

“Of all the multiplayer game platforms in all the world, you walk into GOG”. :)

Seriously, though, GOG likes to disable multiplayer.

aah :D okay thanks anyway

Have you considered something like this?

Unless you're willing to travel the world just to play LAN with other people. But maybe you could try playing multiplayer using GameRanger if the RTS game you play can indeed be played using it.

thanks i gonna try cnc then :)
My point was to be be something on GOG even if its old i am not a hardcore gamer anymore ;) but thanks for everything

Hi,, don't be discouraged by local malcontents, there is still some good stuff to work with.

(and I consider statement that main object of interest here is "offline single-player experience" as debatable)

I admit that I'm more into turn-based strategies than real-time, but I know for sure, that following games are on GOG, have functional multiplayer and some community, still active:

1.Original War - regularly updated, would highly recommend to check around the https://original-war.net/
2.Total Annihilation - check around https://www.tauniverse.com/, they have discord server as well.
3.Giants: Citizen Kabuto (I know, not RTS) - organizing weekends with Giants in multiplayer, I have tried once, very cool experience, they have discord server: https://discord.com/channels/399682992987045888/440630081610711040

Those came to my head, but I guess it's because i have more orientation amongst TBS.

Hey! Do not listen to the people saying you can't find great multiplayer experiences on GOG.


The only titles that I've personally played multiplayer lately (even though they are not RTS) are:

1. Diablo with the DevilutionX mod installed

The mod helps the game run on modern systems, including modern resolutions, and offers some quality-of-life features.

There is also a DevilutionX discord server there are channels where people sometimes gather for multiplayer games.

2. Heroes of Might & Magic III - with the Horn of the Abyss & HD mods installed

Link where you can download both the Horn of the Abyss mod & the HD mod for HOMM3 compatible with HotA:

The game has a HUGE multiplayer following, there are games going all the time.

Also, as someone mentioned before, GameRanger supports a HUGE amount of games and you can use it to play multiplayer. The only game I recently played personally through GameRanger with a couple of friends was Empire Earth, but it has a huge selection of all kinds of genres.

Finally, if you are ok with using the GOG Galaxy optional client, there are many games that support multiplayer natively through Galaxy. I've recently actually finished playing Divinity Original Sin 1 with a friend from another country through GOG Galaxy (I have no clue if DOS1 multiplayer actually worked without the client, never tried).


Sure, many games released on GOG might come without a native multiplayer framework/solution/etc but don't let that discourage you! There are a ton of community solutions available, especially for older games!

I've been playing CNCnet on and off for 10+ years. Most of these games are free downloads now, and there are 1000+ players online most of the time. Especially Red Alert 1 & 2 are very active. The skill level among the player base is very high by now though.

Not exactly GOG exclusive but I did remember 1 game that has an active community.
Supreme Commander

Granted, you will need to get Forged Alliance Forever (https://www.faforever.com/play) but it has an active community, that is kicking still after 15 years! Plus it's currently on sale for just 3€...

"StarCraft II" is an active multiplayer RTS game to play.
