F.E.A.R. Platinum, the renowned first-person shooter developed by Monolith Productions, will join the GOG Preservation Program by next month. This initiative aims to honor the legacy of Monolith following the studio’s recent closure.
Originally released in 2005, F.E.A.R. Platinum includes the base game and its expansions. GOG’s Preservation Program seeks to keep classic games playable on modern systems while ensuring they remain DRM-free and supported with dedicated tech assistance.
Monolith’s contributions to gaming extend beyond F.E.A.R., with a portfolio that includes titles such as Blood, Condemned: Criminal Origins, and Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor. The latter gained acclaim for its innovative „Nemesis System.“ GOG has indicated that more Monolith titles may be added to the Preservation Program in the future.
This move comes amid challenges faced by Warner Bros. Games, which has seen cancellations and studio closures, including Monolith. The preservation of F.E.A.R. Platinum serves as a recognition of the studio’s impact on the gaming industry.
