Release GOG Galaxy 2.0 for Linux
Added by
matj1 The wish to release GOG Galaxy on Linux is one of the most voted wishes. Now the developers probably focus more on Galaxy 2.0 so it's more likely that Galaxy 2.0 will be released on Linux than the original Galaxy.
eldersnake90 Adding my support.
ep2023 Please GOG add support for Linux. Thanks
capitkin I use Linux for most things so I would like a Linux client. I'm moving my collection to DRM-free and ownership as much as possible and I would like to play Linux-supported games on my Linux box which my wife uses the Windows machine for her games. It is 2024 and Linux desktop is only going to grow. Also, with so many companies moving to the renter model for games more folks are going to move to GOG.
Toberic +1 --> Linux gaming is not the future...it's the present!
JohnnyGamer I've been using Linux to play games for 3 years now and I actually prefer to buy my games from Steam again because I know they run there and the client doesn't cause any problems.
JohnnyGamer A native client would probably still be too expensive. But it would be great if there was at least an unofficial client, because the emulated version tends to run poorly. Or if the emulated version runs better.
I've been using Linux for gaming for 3 years now and I don't want to go back to Windows.
Colday5518 Still no GOG for linux then? Thought I would come here and just grab it. Nothing ever changes. Back to Steam I go.
Zenatore It is ok. I will just buy from steam. Don't bother and invest in your DEI BS and DIE with it!
edwardborland When is it coming? Galaxy on Lutris, Galaxy on steam.. getting a bit silly. Running X4, Stardew Valley and many others natively on Linux.. (from Gog!). Come on guys.
Birb_man JUST DO IT
horstfreigang It's ridiculous to have to start Galaxy via Steam to play games bought from GOG on the Steam Deck, at least if one want to use cloud saves.
Come on guys, its 2024.
sycpuppy I take that back, looks like I have spent a bit more than $100
sycpuppy I've spent less than $100 on GoG in the last ten years because I've been using Linux for over 20 years. I've spent over $18,000 on Steam in that amount of time
The part where you have a Mac client when there are a lot less gamers on Mac than on Linux is funny as hell.
slime_hunter same. I am moving away from Steam and toward GOG and itch more often, and I'm also moving away from Windows so I'm seconding this. It would be great to have in the near future.
visionviper I am 1 of 2 computers down to fully transitioning to Linux for all my computers and gaming needs. I would absolutely love to see native GOG Galaxy support for Linux and especially incorporating Proton.
efim I really like GOG and would love to purchase more games here.
Unfortunately sometimes it's not enough to use Heroic launcher - I can play my Cyberpunk 2077, but I cannot install Spanish Audio though it. Now I'm afraid of purchasing Fallout 4, it lists spanish audio, but I might not be able to download it, if it's not included into initial default installation
blazer73 + 1
R_modoe Win10 and linux user here. Going on forward eventually i will switch full on to using ubuntu. I think that creating an GOG Galaxy client for linux would be a smart move for cd project red. Better than releasing a shite on release buggy as fuck open world cyberpunk RPG.
nThor Until now, I bought everything I could on Gog, and only what wasn't sold on Gog on Steam.
I don't understand how Gog galaxy can exist on Macos and still not on Linux.
With Microsoft approaching the end of Windows 10 support, I'm considering going full Linux, and as much as it pains me, all my next games will be bought on Steam.
Please release a Linux version, or at least give us some info on its development.

Wujaszek13 Czy powstanie oficjalna wersja GOG Galaxy dla Linux'a? bo to co jest do instalacji za pomocą pakietów nie da się zainstalować, a ma u was sporo gier i chciałbym z nich korzystać na systemie Linux tak jak ma to miejsce na Steam
stormyyynoway @Inkyubasu87 the only one popular for desktop use*
Lore-Friendly One of the reasons I stopped using GOG and the client is that there is no native Linux support. Although while I was using Windows, I was an apologist for DRM free and GOG as a replacement for Steam in particular, trying to buy games in GOG.
Today I have Linux on both my laptop and PC, and I also have a Steam Deck. And although I can install each specific game from GOG via Wine or a third-party client, it is easier for me to use the ready-made functionality of Steam.
It would be nicer to have an official and native GOG client.
cryoscope Given how popular the Steam Deck is, it seems rather daft for there to still not be a native GOG Galaxy client for Linux yet. Back when Galaxy launched, you could argue that there wasn't enough demand for it but now there are millions of Steam Deck users out there who most likely have a GOG library they would like to access without relying on third-party workarounds.
Bulb5522 Not to make too fine a point of it, but this is really THE time to pour all-in for Linux.
Bulb5522 Darnit, I came here for this after literally just deleting Window and switching to Ubuntu and it sucks that this hasn't been prioritized.
vintaned Para cuando la plataforma en linux?
Inkyubasu87 The embarrassing thing is not that they don't release an app that allows you to take advantage of the various compatibility layers (wine, proton ecc...) to run windows games on linux but the fact that they brag about drm free games without supporting the only truly free operating system...
motching +1 this is getting awkward
matheusrosa94 GOG Galaxy for Linux + Wine integration to run Windows games
karlanguss Yo también necesito Galaxy GOG para Linux.
Gracias
shei31416 PPPPPLLLEEEEEEAAAASE give us GOG Galaxy for Linux!!!!
skuzzie How is GOG Galaxy for linux not a thing yet?
darkyl3in Just bought Metro Exodus, to play the enhanced edition which has a native Linux binary. Now I realized, that I can only download the windows version o0. If a Linux client does not happen okay. But pls give me the option to download the Linux binaries from web! <3
Danneel Please many of us love the platform and having GOG Galaxy for Linux would be great!
mambouna Please have better Linux support! It doesn't need to be as good as Proton on Steam but even an automatic wine integration with an installer would be worth gold!
unrulycow Lack of full Linux support is the biggest reason to buy games on Steam instead. Please fix this
gogamer13 Me, too! GOG Galaxy for Linux, please!
unruffled_solomon I stopped buying games on gog.com many years ago because of the missing Linux support.
TypicalFinn Why is gog telling linux users to sit at the back of the bus?
_Sampler I joined GOG in 2017 or wtv, 200+ games and counting and there's still no Linux installer! How hard is it? Hire the right nerd and he'll do it in a day!
ccongolese I'll never switch to gog from steam for this exact reason: no Linux support. So GOG, if you want my money, you know what you've got to do.
solocord I'm surprised this still isn't a thing yet, GoG seems like the exact kind of people who WOULD support a native linux version of the store because it just makes sense
TheSerial We are asking for years...
Yes, Itch.io has a linux native installer, Valve has SteamDeck and is doing a lot for linux (I guess).
And GOG do it. I'm sure you will rewarded for that.
mudkipz2 Still waiting on GOG to release Galaxy on Linux. Steam is on Linux and Valve is doing so much to push the gaming ecosystem forward on Linux. I hope GOG embraces Linux as well.
Angelin_Castilho_R I hope thre is a gog galaxy for linux in the future, and work as good as steam does.
EnderIce2 I hope they will release it in the future…
uggeli69 i want gog galaxy for linux.
SaxoPupper Pretty please release it for Linux. Linux is an open source software with a community of people who value and prioritize a client-first ideology that puts the control and the freedom of their computer in their own hands rather than that of a monopolistic company. GOG and Linux go together like bread and butter, and I would be willing to bet that even if the community of GOG-Linux users isn't the majority right now, it may be a great pillar of your userbase in the future. Support for GOG Galaxy on Linux would be a valuable and greatly appreciated investment, ESPECIALLY if it has built in compatibility layer support.
DrFiemo Not yet?
Well we will continue expending our money in other stores.
Happy new year!
