GOG adds LucasArts catalog titles to its service 27 Oct, 2014 / 5 comments

Update 2: The news is now official, so the link has been changed to the correct, working one.

Update: The link to the confirmation is now broken because it was a leak of information GOG intends to make public tomorrow. Check back then for the real deal.

Original Post: As Jennifer broke, the rumors were true! GOG has cut a deal with Disney to release LEC games on its service. And now we have titles. GOG confirmed that "about" 30 games will be made available in total, starting tomorrow with the following six:

Star Wars™: X-Wing Special Edition - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!

Star Wars™: TIE Fighter Special Edition - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!

Sam & Max Hit the Road - digital distribution debut, on GOG.com!

The Secret of Monkey Island™: Special Edition

Indiana Jones® and the Fate of Atlantis™

Star Wars®: Knights of the Old Republic

You'll note that only three of those are digital debuts, but hey, Sam & Max Hit the Road and TIE Fighter are finally available again! Let's hope all fourteen classic adventures make the cut. Seriously, these are exciting times. Speculate below!

    I know it's probably futile, but I'm gonna go ahead and hold out hope that this means they'll let Telltale both finish and release Sam & Max: Freelance Police.



    It'd be nice to see them make an adventure game again too. I'm not sure we'll see either of these things happen any time soon though.

    I do look forward to Mojo bringing us the story of how this came to happen though!
    Seeing as many Mojo staffers are committing to recent expressions of speech and song, maybe Remi could explain the story through the lost art of interpretive dance?

    You mean the old game started by Lucas? No probably not, but it wasn't going to be good anyways. Remember the yellow cat police officer, everyone hated him! See, http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=192446

    Totally radical, I've never been more excited to buy 30 games I have already owned before! I'm not being sarcastic, I'll probably buy them all.

    Also Mojo, Telltale says their Game of Thrones game starts this year, https://www.yahoo.com/games/news/confirmed-winter-coming-2014-155002237.html
