The idea behind GOG Galaxy 2.0 is simple. Smash down the walls between PC game store and create a launcher which can integrate all PC gaming storefronts into one centralised location. Today, GOG has announced that it has teamed up with Epic Games to deliver "official integration" for the Epic Games Store. Through this partnership, GOG and Epic Games are allowing GOG Galaxy to work more seamlessly and reliably with Epic Games Store titles, which is great news for those who want one launcher to rule them all.    

Epic Games has become the first PC gaming platform to offer official GOG Galaxy support, unlike competitors like Steam, Origin and Uplay. Recently, GOG Galaxy has added support for subscriptions to GOG Galaxy, allowing PC gamers to see their gaming subscriptions using the client and browse, install and launch games using the GOG Galaxy 2.0 client. 
 
I'm curious is this will end up being a long-term collaboration.

    This is good since I hate having multiple stores for games. Some launchers I use far more then others but then you find that one game that is only available on one store.

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.
