Linux users: GoG.com lauches more than 50 games for you

If you buy something from a Polygon link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

The good folks at GoG.com are all about making new and old games accessible to modern gamers. To them that means scouring the back catalogs of publishers large and small for treasured oldies, a new push to publish day-one releases alongside outlets like Steam, and a commitment to DRM-free gaming at all costs.

Now, the Polish publisher is formally expanding their game offerings to Linux.

More than 50 games are available, starting today, for Linux platforms worldwide. Nearly half of them have never been playable on Linux before. You can learn more at their site.

Polygon's features team traveled to Poland in the first half of 2014. Our goal was not just to profile a single person or game. We wanted to go deeper.

Over two weeks we covered more than 300 miles. We visited some of the largest and oldest cities in Poland. We met with nearly two dozen teams, and spent time in the homes and workplaces of the individuals making games in the heartland of Central Europe.

Polygon's feature set, Polygon Goes To Poland, contains six feature stories and two short documentary films.
