Downloads

Platform File Notes
Windows 10/11 x64 GameOS-Launcher-win-x64.zip Extract and run GameLauncher.exe
Linux x64 (Bazzite / Fedora / Ubuntu / Arch) GameOS-Launcher-linux-x64.tar.gz See Linux quick-start below
macOS Intel GameOS-Launcher-osx-x64.tar.gz chmod +x GameLauncher && ./GameLauncher
macOS Apple Silicon GameOS-Launcher-osx-arm64.tar.gz chmod +x GameLauncher && ./GameLauncher

Game detection (all platforms)

The launcher automatically finds installed games from:

  • Steam — reads libraryfolders.vdf to find all Steam library folders
  • Epic Games — reads .item manifest files (DisplayName, InstallLocation)
  • GOG Galaxy — scans default GOG install folder
  • Xbox / Game Pass — scans XboxGames\ folder
  • EA / Origin — scans Origin Games\ and EA Games\ folders
  • Ubisoft Connect — scans Ubisoft game launcher folder
  • ROMs — PS1/PS2/PS3/PS4/Switch/GBA/SNES/Xbox 360 with TitleID detection

Quick start (Windows)

  1. Download GameOS-Launcher-win-x64.zip below
  2. Extract the zip to any folder
  3. Double-click GameLauncher.exe
  4. Sign in — same username and password as the Game.OS website

Quick start (Linux — Bazzite, Fedora, Ubuntu, Arch, …)

  1. Download GameOS-Launcher-linux-x64.tar.gz below
  2. Extract: tar -xzf GameOS-Launcher-linux-x64.tar.gz
  3. Run the installer to add it to your application menu: 
    chmod +x install-linux.sh && ./install-linux.sh
  4. Launch from your application menu (Game.OS Launcher) or run ~/.local/bin/GameLauncher
  5. Sign in — same username and password as the Game.OS website

Note for Bazzite users: If the site appears stuck in demo mode,
run check-github-mode.sh (included in the tarball) — it does the
same diagnostics as check-github-mode.vbs on Windows, with no Wine needed.

Requirements

  • No .NET runtime required — fully self-contained single binary per platform

Same login as the website

The launcher uses identical authentication to the Game.OS website:

  • PBKDF2-SHA256 password hashing (100,000 iterations)
  • Same private GitHub data repository (Game.OS.Private.Data)
  • Same accounts — create an account on the website, log in here
