The Video Game History Foundation has recently shared that 87% of games created before 2010 are inaccessible today. With the help of the gaming community, GOG is set on getting that number down to zero with the launch of the GOG Preservation Program.
The GOG Preservation Program ensures classic games remain playable on modern systems, even after their developers stopped supporting them. By maintaining these iconic titles, GOG helps you protect and relive the memories that shaped you, DRM-free and with dedicated tech support.
They begin with the re-release of 100 classic games from their catalog with updated, improved, or quality-tested builds, including masterpieces like Heroes of Might and Magic 3, Resident Evil, and Diablo+Hellfire.
With so many titles being delisted lately, including the recent announcement from Sega that they'll be delisting over 60 SEGA Classics titles, I think this is a great start to hopefully preserve our gaming history.
Will you be buying any of the currently released games from the GOG Preservation Program? What classic games do you wish they would add to the program in the future?
