GOG has joined the European Federation of Game Archives, Museums and Preservation Projects (EFGAMP) as it continues to push for game preservation.
The PC game platform is the first Polish institution to join EFGAMP, which was founded in 2012 to represent over 20 organisations focused on collecting and preserving digital games. It’s the largest organisation in Europe of its kind.
“GOG was created with video game preservation in mind,” said GOG managing director Maciej Gołębiewski, emphasising the company’s game preservation ambitions.
“Classic games and the mission to safeguard them for future generations have always been at the core of our work. Over the past decade, we’ve honed our expertise in this area. The GOG Preservation Program, which ensures compatibility for over 100 games and delivers hundreds of enhancements, is just one example of this commitment. We were thrilled to see the Program warmly received not only by our players but also by our partners and the gaming industry as a whole.”
