CD Projekt has sold its PC gaming storefront GOG back to Michal Kicinski, the original co-founder behind the digital store and the iconic RPG developer.
While Michal Kicinski founded the Polish company in the 1990s, GOG didn’t come about until 2008 with the mission statement of helping people find, buy, and play older games free of DRM. The distribution service now often also covers new, big-budget games, while also getting fans involved in restoring and preserving classics like, most recently, Dino Crisis.
“If you’re a GOG Patron, or you donate to support the Preservation Program, those funds stay within GOG,” an FAQ page explains. “GOG will remain independent in its operations. We will continue building a platform that’s ethical, non-predatory, and made to last, while helping indie developers reach the world. We’re also committed to giving the community a stronger voice, with new initiatives planned for 2026.”
