GOG Galaxy for Mac is the gaming Client for macOS designed for a convenient purchasing, playing and updating games, as well as an online play between gaming platforms, GOG Galaxy is also built with optionality in mind, and a belief that you should own the games you buy. Universal Cloud Saves, in-game overlay, bandwidth limiting, capturing screenshots, desktop notifications and more... GOG Galaxy for macOS is as much about bringing the GOG.com experience up to modern par, as it is about offering completely new features and standards.

Always optional
'Beyond all these features, GOGGalaxy will never be mandatory. And that’s a great motivation for us - we want to make it so good, that you actually want to use it.'
