Ultima Underworld, Wing Commander & other EA classics arrive on GOG.com

On the same day that Electronic Arts launched Origin as a digital platform for its major franchises (FIFA, KOTOR, etc.), classic gaming site GOG.com announced a deal that will see more than 25 retro PC titles from EA’s rich back catalog launch on the DRM-free portal over the next few months.

With today’s announcement three widely known and much awaited brands get the revival treatment from GOG.com: Wing Commander: Privateer, Dungeon Keeper and Ultima Underworld 1+2.

Additional titles will be added gradually over the coming months, but GOG confirmed that they will include Crusader: No Remorse, Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri, and Magic Carpet.

The deal does not, however, include the System Shock or Syndicate series’.
