GOG's commitment extends to acquiring and updating titles no longer supported by their original publishers. ## Content # GOG’s Preservation Program Ensures Classic Games Remain Playable GOG is launching a new initiative called the GOG Preservation Program, with the goal of safeguarding classic PC games and ensuring they remain compatible with modern and future systems. True to GOG's DRM-free ethos, this program focuses on maintaining ongoing support and compatibility for older games in their catalog. Although this initiative will be a smaller part of GOG's overall catalog, it is a significant step in preserving gaming history. The program starts with 100 carefully selected titles, which will receive essential updates to ensure they work seamlessly on current technology. Noteworthy games in this initial selection include classics like the original *Fallout*, the *Resident Evil* series, *The Witcher: Enhanced Edition*, and *Warcraft I and II*, along with *Diablo* and *Resident Evil 1-3*. The GOG Preservation Program not only addresses compatibility issues but also aims to fix game-breaking bugs, ensuring that players can enjoy the best versions of these timeless masterpieces. Each game included in the program will feature a special 'Good Old Game: Preserved by GOG' stamp, marking it as part of this preservation effort. By launching this program, GOG is taking a proactive stance against the disappearance of classic games. They are committed to making these games accessible and playable 'forever'. The initiative also extends to acquiring titles that are no longer updated or supported by their original publishers, further cementing GOG's dedication to preserving gaming history. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don’t just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Unveils Schedule for KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Europe 2026](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-unveils-schedule-for-kubecon-cloudnativecon-europe-2026-ikhcoa5cb) · CNCF · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Debuts KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-debuts-kubecon-cloudnativecon-japan-2026-schedule-xp5pyudub) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#gaming](https://daily.dev/tags/gaming) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/gog-s-preservation-program-ensures-classic-games-remain-playable-on-modern-systems-c99pmqm3p) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"GOG's Preservation Program Ensures Classic Games Remain Playable on Modern Systems","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/gog-s-preservation-program-ensures-classic-games-remain-playable-on-modern-systems-c99pmqm3p","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/gog-s-preservation-program-ensures-classic-games-remain-playable-on-modern-systems-c99pmqm3p"},"datePublished":"2024-11-14T05:39:55.483Z","dateModified":"2024-11-14T09:35:25.478Z","description":"GOG has launched the GOG Preservation Program to safeguard classic PC games, ensuring they remain compatible with modern and future systems.
