GOG.com outages and problems
In the past 24 hours, 9 user reports came in for GOG.com. Counting only the 15-minute windows with a spike big enough to count as an outage, that comes to 100.00% uptime for the day.
The busiest 15-minute window had 3 reports, about 7 hours ago. That stays below our outage threshold, so it doesn't count as downtime.

How to fix GOG.com not working
GOG.com is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach gog.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check GOG status and try mobile data
Open the official status page. Then load gog.com on your phone with Wi-Fi off; if the phone works while your home connection does not, your router or ISP is the likely block.
Try a private window for GOG
Open gog.com in a private window. In Chrome press Ctrl+Shift+N; in Firefox press Ctrl+Shift+P. If the site works there, clear cookies and site data for it in your browser settings, then disable extensions that touch downloads or scripts.
Restart Galaxy and sign back in
Quit GOG Galaxy from the system tray. If the client is stuck, open Task Manager and end any GalaxyClient.exe process that remains, then launch it again; should connecting still stall, sign out from the avatar menu and sign back in.
Allow Galaxy through your firewall
Open Windows Security > Firewall & network protection > Allow an app through firewall > Change settings, then tick Private and Public for GOG Galaxy. Third-party antivirus can block the client. Check its block list or connection log if the client still cannot reach the store.
While GOG.com is down: what to use instead
- Launch from the game folder Because GOG games ship without DRM, you can start most of them by opening the game's executable in its install folder, with no client or login involved.
- Galaxy offline mode Switch the client to offline mode and installed games still launch, while achievements and cloud saves sync once it reconnects.
- Backup offline installers Installers you saved from your library earlier will reinstall games without the store.
- Steam If you want something new and the store won't load, Steam sells many of the same titles, though a copy bought there stays out of your GOG library.
Fix GOG.com on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
GOG.com on Windows
- Fix
- Restart the GOG Galaxy client or check if Windows Defender is blocking GOG.com. You can also try clearing the client's cache or resetting your network adapter settings.
- Check
- Try opening GOG.com in a web browser to see if the store loads, or check the connection status indicator in the GOG Galaxy client.
ping gog.comTest whether GOG.com's servers replynslookup gog.comCheck that GOG.com's DNS resolvestracert gog.comTrace where the connection dropsipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reloadGOG.com on Mac
- Fix
- Restart the GOG Galaxy app or clear your browser cache if you are accessing GOG.com via Safari. Make sure your macOS firewall is not restricting connection permissions for the game client.
- Check
- Check if the GOG.com website loads in your browser, or see if the GOG Galaxy client for Mac is stuck in offline mode.
ping -c 4 gog.comTest whether GOG.com's servers replynslookup gog.comCheck that GOG.com's DNS resolvestraceroute gog.comTrace where the connection dropssudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reloadGOG.com on Android
- Fix
- Clear your mobile browser's cache and cookies, or disable any active VPNs that might block access to GOG.com. You can also try switching from Wi-Fi to mobile data.
- Check
- Try loading GOG.com in an incognito tab to bypass cached pages, or test the connection on a different network.
GOG.com on iPhone and iPad
- Fix
- Clear Safari's website data for GOG.com in your iOS settings, or toggle Airplane Mode to reset your network connection. Disabling active content blockers or VPNs can also resolve loading issues.
- Check
- Attempt to access GOG.com using a mobile browser on both Wi-Fi and cellular data. If the site fails to load on both connections, GOG is likely experiencing server issues.
What happens when GOG.com goes down
GOG.com is a digital store for DRM-free games, and its Galaxy client is a desktop app you use to buy, download, install, and play them; people who avoid always-online launchers rely on the service for offline installers and a library they keep. An outage interrupts store pages, purchases, downloads, and Galaxy sign-in or sync.
Store pages and checkout fail first, so you can browse a game but hit an error when you try to pay or add it to your account. Downloads fail to start. The Galaxy client can sit at a sign-in loop, and cloud saves might not upload or download, which blocks progress if you switch machines. These problems are partial: some regions or features keep working while others do not, and the official status page or help centre is the place to check for service-wide notices.

How we track GOG.com
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for GOG.com, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for GOG.com, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from GOG.com's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
