Hi!
This new Heroic release brings amazing and exciting new features!
We now have a brand new console-like fullscreen mode built for joystick/TV navigation, a new Deals page showing current GOG promotions (and a reminder that buying games from inside Heroic helps Heroic development 👀 ), and achievements support for GOG games right on the game page.
Game covers can now be picked directly from SteamGridDB on the sideload dialog (when an API key is set on Heroic settings), the Wine manager screen has been cleaned up and gained a dedicated settings screen, Electron was updated to 41.1, How Long To Beat data is working again, and the release includes many other fixes and quality improvements.
There is also a native Windows Arm64 Build now (Linux next?!)
