Download for WindowsFrequently Asked Questions
Is Kolektor really free?
Yes! The Game Launcher is completely free, forever. Premium features (library sync, physical collection) will be $10/year during early access, $30/year after.
Why Kolektor over Playnite?
Zero configuration—just install and your games appear. No plugins to install. Plus, we're building physical game support that Playnite doesn't offer.
Why Kolektor over CLZ Games?
CLZ is great for physical games but doesn't support digital. Kolektor will show your complete collection—digital AND physical—in one place.
What about Heroic Games?
Heroic is excellent for Epic/GOG on Linux and Mac. Kolektor supports 8 platforms built-in (vs 3) and focuses on the collector experience.
When will physical games launch?
Physical collection with barcode scanner is part of Premium, currently in development. Join Discord for updates.
