It’s hardly a surprise after yesterday’s teaser tweets, but it’s exciting all the same: the Jazz Jackrabbit games are once again available for sale, digitally at GOG!
The package deal includes both the main games and the expansions The Secret Files and Christmas Chronicles, so chances are that there’s something new in there for you even if you’ve had the original game for years.
Additionally, The Secret Files is bundled with JJ2+, so there’s no need to install the patch manually – just choose the “Jazz Jackrabbit 2 with JJ2+” option under Game Goodies to install a plus-enabled version of the game.
As a final bit of good news, GOG has generously given us some game codes to raffle among the community’s members. So if you want to have these shiny new versions of Jazz Jackrabbit 1, Jazz Jackrabbit 2, and Epic Pinball, simply leave a comment and we’ll (randomly!) choose five lucky winners in two days from now. Or, if you can’t wait, use the links above to buy the games right now!
(The raffle has now ended. Stay tuned for more GOG news to come.)

Holy crap! I have been waiting so long for this day… :D
Just in time to play some Holiday Hare with the music blasting on max through December. :D
They made me write this message.
Been waiting for something like this to happen for so long! Hopefully they will sell enough to warrant a Jazz 3 :D
Good to see it finally happen, after a lot of conspiracy within the big companies, lol.

Ohh, great news. So happy to finally see this avaiable. Many thanks to the JJ2 community for keeping up the faith, and making the excellent JJ2+, hope this will mean more new levels and people rediscovering this total classic. Cheers!
What a pleasant surprise this is! :)
Great news! I hope they will release it on Steam too :’)
so happy to see this!
Oh, happy day! People can finally enjoy playing as the little gun-wielding green rabbit dude once more.
Awesome! So happy to finally see them available to purchase again!

Very nice :-)
Texafornian: if you buy the “Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Collection”, which is now for sale on GOG, you get two separate games in your library: The Secret Files and Christmas Chronicles. JJ2+ can then be installed via the TSF page.
Congratulations to jazz jackrabbit gog.com petition maker from change.org I’m so happy and excited we won this petition.
Finally Epic Games decided to release these games on GOG. We can now obtain legal digital copies.
Just in time for Christmas! :)
I’ve waited a long time for Jazz to be on gog. So glad it’s finally on gog
snz used mieli = puhallettu. Its super effective!
No need for code, already bought! Just happy that everyone else is happy!
So now, when anyone ever asks where to get the games, just point them to GoG!
This made my freaking day. And it’s been a pretty good day.
This is incredible. I honestly thought this wouldn’t happen at this point. Bought them instantly, of course. Going to play the Christmas episodes on December 24th, as I’ve been doing during the last few years.
Also, it’s weird to log in here after so many years. Massive respect to all of you for keeping the community alive all this time.
Raffle, yesss…
I’m in!
Fantastic news! I’ll be hosting a server this weekend if anyone feels like playing online :)
This is amazing! Rock on Epic and GoG!
Ayyyy, nice to see one of my childhood favorite games on GoG. definitely going to get asap :3
Oh my god! Finally! I’ve been waiting for this to happen for years!
Beyond excited!
Excellent news!
YESSSS!!!! I’m so happy right now :D
Glad to see this has finally happened. Was thinking about the game just the other day.
Oh my god, can’t believe they actually did it. I even reviewed Jazz on my website recently sayin what a pity it is that we never had single digital re-release. Good work to everybody here for not letting these games die for 20 years and keeping the content coming. Hopefully we will see renewed interest in the series and who knows, maybe it’s gonna continue one day. Also good work with new website look, it’s beautiful.
I hope this brings new life to Jazz Jackrabbit, it enlarges the community and might wake up Epic to do something new with Jazz Jackrabbit we all have been waiting for for almost two decades :)
I’d love to see the GoG versions of Jazz and Epic Pinball :)

I’m very happy to finally be able to pay for games I love. If you randomly chose me, choose again as I want to pay for JJ1 to support Epic’s move.
I’m so excited to see JJ2 rereleased! And even better to make it easy by bundling JJ2+!
I’m in for the lottery.

It only took 15 years to re-release this classic. I will definitely buy the game for myself, but if I am randomly chosen, I know one very happy nephew-in-law who will enjoy the hell out of it.
Or at least his mother will.
Oh my, game of my childhood. Unfortunately, I never had it original and I didn’t play it for many years because retail versions are too expensive for my small wallet. It’s a shame I spent my money for mangas… so if I would win this copy I would be very happy… if I won’t, well, I guess I will wait for some sale :c
Saw this and bought it instantly. FINALLY, A DIGITAL RELEASE! Great job!
Also bought this immediately, happy to support a digital version that was long overdue!
Finally, after so many years! This is a great announcement.
Honestly, didn’t think we would ever see the day :D
Woohoo!
I’m happy they finally released Jazz Jackrabbit again :D Especially the first one, since I hadn’t play it yet. Gotta get it on Christmas
When I saw the e-mail from GOG I couldn’t believe it :D
I’ve been waiting for a jazz jackrabbit copy since i was a kid, I’m glad they are selling it on gog now.
It’s great to see old games available again in legal ways.
Jazz Jackrabbit 2 is the best! Alexander Brandon’s music has no parallel.
Aaand results are in! Congratulations to Robo4900, rionaam, Bartjaah, nukkus and Obi1mcd – you’ve won the Epic bundle and will receive an e-mail and PM with further instructions soon.
good news everyone :)
This is superb news; though I have not interacted with the community nor played JJ2 since 2012 when I graduated from university, this may be the spur for me to revisit this classic. I’m sure there will be many others in my situation too!
It’s incredible to think that for the first time since the eary 2000’s, people can buy this game again, new. Fantastic news! Bought it immediately
Finally, I have a chance to get these games legally after many years. It’s a step that they should have done waay before.
