We’ve reached out to GOG and Red Candle Games for more information, but have not heard back before publishing. Red Candle Games has apologized multiple times for its “critical and unprofessional error” that angered Chinese fans. Chinese players began review-bombing the game on Steam before Devotion was eventually pulled for a “complete QA check,” the developer said at the time. After receiving many messages from gamers, we have decided not to list the game in our store.- GOG.COM December 16, 2020ĭevotion was removed from Steam shortly after its release date in February 2019, after a meme critical of Chinese president Xi Jinping - which compared his likeness to Winnie the Pooh - was discovered in the game. CD Projekt have indicated that the available games list will continue to grow over time, though some games may only be on it for a limited time.Earlier today, it was announced that the game Devotion is coming to GOG. You can find the full list of compatible games here– it currently includes all three Witcher games, Galactic Civilizations, Shadowrun Returns, and more. Yep, it’s basically Cross Buy, across two competing services. However, of late, CD Projekt and GoG have been making moves to have GoG be a viable contender in the AAA PC gaming market too- their moves have included courting some big name PC game releases, such as Age of Wonders 3 and CD Projekt’s own The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, as well as the development of a client, GoG Galaxy.īut this new move by GoG might represent their boldest, most aggressive attempt at trying to win some Steam and Valve users over- starting today, GoG is introducing the GoG Connect initiative, which allows you to link your GoG and Steam accounts together, and for certain games that are available on both services, lets you gain the GoG version of those titles, DRM free and everything, for absolutely free. CD Projekt’s PC store, GoG, has long been a popular second place runner in the PC gaming market, thanks to its emphasis on DRM free gaming, and of course, thanks to its niche as the premier delivery service for older, classic PC games.
