When was GOG created

GOG, originally known as Good Old Games, was founded in 2008 by a group of Polish entrepreneurs including Marcin Iwiński and Piotr Karwowski. The platform was designed to offer DRM-free video games, focusing on classic titles that had been neglected or were difficult to find. GOG's mission was to bring back older games and make them accessible to a new generation of gamers while preserving the joy of playing without any digital rights management barriers.

In its early years, GOG gained significant attention for its curated selection of classic games, along with its user-friendly interface and commitment to supporting independent developers. Over time, the platform expanded its offerings to include modern titles and a variety of genres, solidifying its reputation as a go-to platform for gamers seeking quality titles without restrictions. In 2012, GOG rebranded simply to GOG.com, reflecting its broader catalog and commitment to the gaming community. Today, GOG continues to thrive, promoting a philosophy of fair play and supporting a diverse range of games.
