GOG sees the mounting pressure of the payment processor. steam And other PC stores are game preservation, and the company's officials say a lot in recent interviews. This remarks provides a wider view of steam censorships that have caused important debates in recent months.
In July 2025, STEAM removed hundreds of adult games from digital stores. The valve was cited as the only reason for moving the pressure of the payment processor. The development caused an online backlash that ordered payment processors and collective Shout.
GOG claims that the payment processor censorship is a 'game preservation problem'.
In a recent interview with Automaton West, GOG's senior PR PIOTR GNYP is now called “Game Conservation Problem.” “I'm particularly worried when the game disappears because of external pressure,” GNYP said. The conservationist's point of view of this kind did not accurately dominate the recent discourse on this problem, but it is very consistent with GOG's extensive mission to preserve the “good old” game.
Censorship has affected Steam and ITCH.IO in recent months, but GOG has resisted such factors because it is a selective store, not a free platform. According to GNYP, the company chooses based on quality and relevance, but looks at people who match “value and audience.” Not everyone wants a platform to handle cue, but GOG's pitch is powerful because it focuses on DRM free downloads and offline installers. In other words, even if the company stops the business, if it is already downloaded, all the games you purchased may be played.
GNYP also emphasizes that it is bound by the laws of many countries operated by GOG, STEAM and all other digital shopping streets. This law may always be consistent, but it is not the center of censorship in 2025, but at least not directly.
Especially when the game is potentially disappeared due to external pressure.
Recently, some anti -censorship petitions have been broken by response to the wave of steam game listing. However, since mid -September 2025, a single title caught in the Geumpa Wave has not returned to the store's store. This removal can be an unusual thing, GNYP said that it is impossible to avoid completely.
