Yes, you read that correctly. InXile is going to be releasing a new and updated version of Wasteland 2 with many, many fixes and improvements, and they're going to be giving the upgraded version of the PC game to all current owners for free. If you already own the game on PC, you will own the GOTY Edition upon its release. InXile is hoping that this gesture of goodwill will increase confidence in their company and make people more willing to continue supporting their games.

Works for me. D

Here is a trailer for the upcoming Xbox version in case you wanted more hype.

I have been wanting this game forever. Still not in my library, though... Humble has it for 50% off right now but I've been holding out at that price. Hmm.

Damn I've been waiting for the 75% discount since the release to buy it...
I hope it will happen before the GOTY release or I'll have to wait forever for the 75% discount on the GOTY ;_;

Is it free GOTY upgrade to everyone (including those who will buy it in the future)? or just people who currently own it?

Id assume just curr3nt owners or else the goty would never sell. That way people buying it now for the upgrade means instant money for them while they still get cashflow down the line from those who want to pay when everythings available and/or reduced. If it wqs all future owners everyone would justwait for the big sales on the original or go to the shady resellers which would really hamper the games takings.

It's free-for-all because imagine backlash known as "pc have worse version than consoles, even through it was pc that funded nearly whole game".

Yeah they announced it a while ago due to the engine upgrade. Still a nice touch by them.

It's so nice to see when game makers care about their product enough to update it for free. Too bad State of Decay didn't do that too but understandable when game makers make you pay for the new stuff.

My opinion, just another cash grab technique. also from when wasteland 2 is a goty game :P

I remember back in time goty updates was free, check UT2004.

GOTY used to mean something, like a reputable gaming community gave your game an award. Now GOTY normally just means "We're done releasing DLC for this game, so buy it again with all the stuff included for way cheaper so we can get a few more bucks off ya."

Actually, it doesn't even mean that - Borderlands 2 GOTY, PayDay 2 GOTY...

That's the reason why I no longer buy games from both studios/publishers.

Payday 2 DLCs my ass.

I was little sceptical of the goty tag the last years, here is the truth.

Here is the Kickstarter page for the update: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/inxile/wasteland-2/posts/1223310

Can't wait for Torment and Bard's Tale.

They are basically updating the game engine to Unity 5 and redoing character models. Those were extremely ugly.
