GOG Dreamlist Brings Back Breath of Fire IV, Could Mega Man Legends Happen Next?

On January 29th, 2025, Good Old Games announced a new program called the “GOG Dreamlist.”

We’re thrilled to announce the GOG Dreamlist!

What if all the games you love were yours to keep, DRM-free, forever? With this updated and improved version of the well-known Community Wishlist, we’re putting the power in your hands.

👉 Vote now: https://bit.ly/GOG_Dreamlist

Here’s how it works:

☑️ Vote for ANY game you’d like to see on GOG. From inaccessible classics to modern masterpieces, your dream games deserve their forever home.

🔎 Explore detailed game cards with trailers, screenshots, and descriptions, making it easier to champion your favorites.

💬 Share your stories and memories in the new Stories section—because every vote is more than a simple upvote; it’s a powerful message to publishers and IP owners that these games matter.

The GOG Dreamlist isn’t just a wishlist—it’s a movement. Your votes help us navigate the complexities of licensing, rights, and technology to bring these games to life on GOG, where they’ll be DRM-free and yours to keep forever.

Whether it’s a beloved game from your childhood or a title you’ve always wanted DRM-free, the Dreamlist is a tremendous help in making it possible. Together, we can build the ultimate library of games—accessible, preserved, and cherished by gamers worldwide.

87% of all games made before 2010 are inaccessible today. Only together can we try to bring this number down to zero.

Take a stand. Cast your votes. Share your memories.

It didn’t take long for one Capcom game to make a splash. On February 17th, GOG posted this message:

Reading the heartfelt stories shared by you on our Dreamlist is one of the most beautiful experiences one can have.

They’re a true testament to how games have shaped who we are today and how important it is to preserve them, allowing everyone to easily relive those memories and emotions.

We highly encourage everyone to visit the Dreamlist to read these stories and share their own. Let’s make games live forever, together 💜

25 years after its original PlayStation 1 release, Breath of Fire IV finally returns, available right now on GOG, thanks to YOU: the incredible fans who championed this legendary JRPG on the GOG Dreamlist 💜

We couldn’t be more excited. This wouldn’t have happened without the support of over 22,000 passionate Dreamlist voters and the fantastic team at @CapcomUSA_
, who trusted us to bring you this masterpiece in its very best form.

That “very best form” is a reality through the GOG Preservation Program. Our release is fully optimized for modern PCs, with Windows 10 & 11 support, both English and Japanese localizations, upgraded DirectX rendering, new display options (Windowed Mode, V-Sync, Anti-Aliasing, refined gamma correction), and a reworked audio engine (with restored missing environmental sounds & added new sound configuration options).

This JRPG classic is now made to live forever 💿

GOG would also dedicate a full page to going in depth about the game and what makes it special.

So first, as I did on socials, I want to congratulate the Breath of Fire fandom for making this happen. It’s not only heartwarming to see another Capcom classic preserved for future generations to enjoy, but I also find it inspiring. Motivating. I see hope.

You see, Breath of Fire IV is far from the only Capcom game on that list. In particular, and the impetus for me writing about it in this space, is that there are three Mega Man games not yet bundled into a Legacy Collection for modern hardware on that list. (Actually, more than that, but we’ll get back to that later.)

Some people may not be aware, but the Mega Man Legends games received PC ports back in the day, making them ideal Dreamlist candidates for inclusion on GOG. Well, technically, Mega Man Legends did, while Rockman DASH 2‘s PC version was exclusive to Japan. Not sure that would be an issue, though, since an official translated version of the game exists and they did feature multiple languages for Breath of Fire IV.

This is where they currently sit in terms of votes:

Admittedly, these are a little ways from the 20,000 votes Breath of Fire IV got, but if we spread the word, we can get those numbers up. Heck, the first game was even trending shortly after the news got out!

And if you find the 20,000 number discouraging, don’t. By the look of things, the Breath of Fire IV bandwagon got rolling as early as 11,000 votes:

Surely we can make that happen, right?

Now, I know what some of you are probably thinking: “I would rather have a Mega Man Legends Legacy Collection. With Misadventures of Tron Bonne and Great Adventure on 5 Islands and the Mega Man Legends 3: Prototype Version they promised us and never delivered! And blackjack and…”

Right. I hear you, and I’m right there with you. However, if Capcom were to see sufficient interest in the games here on GOG.com, then maybe that would light a fire under them to do such a thing instead. Or maybe we get both; maybe one of the games (most likely the first, since it’s got the most votes as of this writing and has an English PC version ready) gets released here as a way for Capcom to test the waters. Or maybe Capcom sees enough interest and decides it warrants skipping GOG and going right to the multiplatform plan.

It would certainly have to be a better gauge than their last release, which was on the PlayStation Store for PlayStation 3 almost two years after the non-backwards compatible PlayStation 4 had hit the market. Bless the folks at Capcom who made that happen, and I got all three, but at the same time, I’m not sure that would provide the best metrics for gauging interest.

So, what can you do to show your support, and help make this a reality?

1) Vote. You’ll need a GOG.com account in order to do so, but hey, it’s free, and might just come in handy someday — especially if this works.

2) Share a story about the game. Mega Man Legends has 47, and Mega Man Legends 2 has 18. They seem to hold these in high regard, so be sure to say something (for reference, Breath of Fire IV has 194 stories)! I’ve left posts on both and pretty much exhausted the entire 2000-character limit each time, but you only need a minimum of 160. But tell why the game is great or important to you. Failing that, they offer the following suggestions for what you can talk about:

• What made this game unforgettable?
• Who did you play this game with?
• What made it fun or challenging?
• Why do you want this game on GOG?

Just be honest, respectful, and have fun talking about a game you enjoy — or, for those who haven’t played it yet, why you want to finally play it, and how having it on GOG would help facilitate that would be great, too!

Oh, and don’t forget to upvote other stories you like there, too!

3) Spread the word! The more people who get in on this, the better our chances! Don’t just stick to the Mega Man community, but if you know of a good place to talk about it — say, your YouTube channel or TikTok or whatever, or maybe on a Discord that’s just about great video games in general — let them know! Just don’t get spammy about it, posting it everywhere you can. That’s probably just going to make people want to ignore it, and raiding some Facebook group about collecting tea doilies and telling the people there to vote for Mega Man Legends is just going to make you — all of us, really — look like a bunch of jerks.

The page for Mega Man Legends can be found here, while Mega Man Legends 2 is here.

And when all that is done… hey, look around! There may be other games you’d like to see receive their due again — or for the first time — on the list! It doesn’t have to just be Mega Man you vote for, after all!

But, since we’re on that topic, you might also be wondering: “What about The Misadventures of Tron Bonne?”

Well, there’s good news and bad news regarding that.

The good news is that yes, it is on there.

The bad news is manifold:

As of this writing, it has the least number of votes at 1,035, and the fewest stories of the three at eight. On top of those two things, there’s also the fact that unlike the two Mega Man Legends games, it does not have a PC version. Whether this is a determining factor for what does or does not get on the list is unknown, or if they have some sort of workaround (emulation wrapper, one would guess).

By all means, support this one, too — I sure did. I love it just as much as the mainline releases, even more in some ways. But just don’t hedge all your bets on that one. Hopefully some degree of success can help lift it up, too, but don’t count on it alone.

Now, I mentioned other Mega Man games on the list, and boy howdy, are there ever. Official games, fan games, PC games, PSP games, games from pretty much everything. Yes, even the other biggest omission from the Legacy Collection lineup at present, Mega Man Star Force (I think every version of every game). I’m not linking everything here, because that’s a lot, but the search bar on the site can bring it up for you.

Again, I encourage you to support any and all you want to see on there, though I don’t know how realistic some are (The Sequel Wars, for example).

The Mega Man Legends games have the most votes by far, though, and are probably the spearhead we need to penetrate Capcom and GOG’s consciousness, hopefully leaving a hole big enough for other games to get through.

But still, this needs your support in order to make it happen! So please, vote, leave a story, and spread the word! We can do this, but we have to do it together!

Thanks for reading! And in case you haven’t heard, the hosting costs for keeping this place running ain’t cheap, so if you like what we’re doing here, would like to see us expand our breadth of content, and can kick in a few bucks to our Patreon, buy us an E Tank on Ko-fi, or just do something with PayPal, we’d greatly appreciate it!
