CD Projekt Red has sold its digital storefront GOG to co-founder Michał Kiciński for 90 million PLN, about $25 million USD. The move allows GOG to operate fully independently while maintaining its DRM-free philosophy and game preservation efforts. CD Projekt plans to continue releasing its titles on the platform through a new distribution agreement.
