CD Projekt Co-founder, Michał Kiciński, Acquires GOG.com
Hey folks, big changes are afoot over at GOG.com. Michał Kiciński, who co-founded CD Projekt with his brother Marcin back in 1994, now has full ownership of GOG.com. He helped kick off this classic PC game digital distribution platform in 2008 and just snagged 100% of its shares. Kiciński stepped down from CD Projekt in 2010 but has stayed in the loop with the company.
CD Projekt’s joint CEO, Michał Nowakowski, confirmed this move aligns with their fresh focus on ramping up new, high-quality game projects. Originally, GOG was built on strong values when Kiciński and Marcin Iwiński dreamed it up, and now Kiciński’s at the helm to keep that legacy alive. It’s wild to see how far things have come, and we’re pumped to see what GOG.com does next under Kiciński’s full control. CD Projekt has announced a nostalgic mission for GOG.com: bring those classic games we adore back to life and ensure that when we buy them, they’re truly ours to own forever.
This move is all about enhancing the vibrant user experience and expanding GOG.com’s library, which is such a win for gamers old and new. Their focus?
The RPS Selection Box: Jeremy’s bonus games of the year 2025
The RPS Advent Calendar for this year features a selection of games, including titles about Japanese assassins. However, not all nominated assassin games made the final list.

The choices in the Advent Calendar highlight a curated approach, aiming to appeal to a broader audience. By excluding some niche titles, RPS may miss out on spotlighting more unique genres. Interestingly, the focus remains on delivering a balanced mix of games for the holiday season.
