GOG’s Connect service, which let users grab a free copy of a game they already owned on Steam to add their GOG library, is officially no more.
Launched in 2016, GOG Connect was a neat proposition on paper, allowing users to link their GOG and Steam accounts and then get a duplicate, DRM-free version of a game they’d already purchased on Valve’s platform over on GOG.
In practice, though, it was all a bit restrictive, with GOG only offering a very limited selection of eligible games – and even those could only be added to a user’s GOG library within a very strict timeframe for contractual reasons. Perhaps unsurprisingly, support for the service slowly dwindled and GOG Connect has now been inactive (if not officially dead) for years.
