GOG.com Big Fall Sale Starts Today--Grab The Witcher 2 and Mount & Blade For Free

Flash deals to drop every 40 minutes during the sale; two bundles will be on offer every day.

Digital distributor GOG.com kicks off its Fall sale today, with over 700 games discounted on its online store. For the first 48 hours of the sale, customers are able to pick up a copy of open-world role-playing game Mount & Blade for free.

In addition to this, sequel Mount & Blade: Warband and the Mount & Blade: With Fire & Sword expansion are marked down by 75 percent. All of Hasbro's D&D games are also 80 percent off, including the positively received Baldur's Gate and Planescape: Torment.

Two daily bundles and flash deals occurring every 40 minutes are planned for the duration of the Fall sale. Returning GOG.com customers will also be able to pick up free copies of The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings and The Gamers: Director's Cut film. As per the distributor's usual approach, all games will be free of any DRM.

GOG.com turned six years old this in September this year. For more on how the site evolved from a niche online platform for classic games and plans for the near future, check out our interview with managing director Guillaume Rambourg.

Already have it and frankly have no interest in ever buying anything on GOG, as I have never had. If Guilty Gear Isuka and XX had come to Steam first and not GOG, I'd literally never have bought anything from them. Yes, lament my disregard for DRM free.

<< LINK REMOVED >> I think it is free. You just have to log in daily to collect the stamp of the day. On the site it says "Collect stamps every day, get a free game + movie for 7 stamps". I'm now on the third stamp (third day) and last time I bought something was a month ago (more or less).

Mount & Blade is such a terrible game...in the best of ways, I loved it!

Would love to see some AAA attention to it's style, it really is a deep, if not flawed, action/RPG/strategy/sim game.

It's getting to the point where GOG and GWG are all I need. I have more games than I can play thanks to these two services, and many of the games are of higher quality instead being only indie games.

<< LINK REMOVED >> I would like to say the same but unfortunately I am often interested in big games from publishers like Square Enix or Ubisoft. They dont put them on GoG. Although I will alwys buy a game on GOG instead of any other service if that game is available there.

Thanks, I'll have to think research mount and blade. I bought the Witcher 1 and 2 on Steam to support CD Projekt Red (would have bought it off GOG if they had prepaid cards in stores like Steam, itunes, Nintendo, Google, and Sony do) but I'll pay them a visit each day for the next week for it.

Well, I guess waiting a week and collecting stamps to get The Witcher 2 won't kill me.

During one of their "insomnia" sales I actually waited for The Witcher 2 to show up, but it never did. It was only afterwards, that I heard about there being a forum thread that had all the games on sale listed there. If I had just taken a look there, it would have saved me lots of anxiety and time. I have plenty of games already on GoG and even though my wishlist is about 20 games large, they're mostly "might-be-good" games that I keep there, so I don't forget about them.

<< LINK REMOVED >> It's usually a bit cheaper (a few cents or so) for me to buy in euros, which is surprising, because everywhere else it's more expensive to buy in euros.

"positively received games" Baldur's Gate and Planescape Torment. Hehe - two of the most loved RPGs ever among RPG aficionados, more like.


Looking forward to all the deals, GoG!

The Witcher, THE WITCHER!!!!


I feel so privileged thanks to CD Projekt Red, they make possibly my favourite franchise/games of all time, and they can't be beat when it comes to customer appreciation! What a fantastic combination of awesomeness!

I actually had an account from when I purchased Vampire: The Masquerade. So I clicked the stamp... will this special end before I can hit all these stamps?

As for Witcher 2 and the movie, you have to scroll down at the middle of the page, come back every day and check the "stamps" thing. When you complete 7 of these "stamps", you'll get the drm-free game.

But it's free nonetheless. They're trying to make you see all the discounted games every day; and of course, buy them. Which I think is briliiant. :)

<< LINK REMOVED >>Well, since there is no DRM, nothing prevents you from simply pirating it. There's no difference since the devs aren't getting any money either way.

<< LINK REMOVED >> there are pirated GOG versions out there with all the patches, with all the goodies. No different than one in GOG store now. Btw - everything can be pirated, everything.

P.S. I actually bought a game long while ago. Just in case if someone's decides to start crusade in comments against me :D
