What is Hydra Launcher?

Hydra Launcher is a free and open-source gaming platform for managing your PC game library in one place. It lets you download, organize and play your games, track playtime and stats, unlock achievements, discover new titles, customize your profile, sync progress, and connect with friends.

Hydra includes an embedded BitTorrent downloader client that centralizes community-managed sources, so users do not need a separate torrent client. It also supports cloud save backups through Hydra Cloud, rich game discovery, custom download paths, HowLongToBeat integration for game time estimates, and regular updates.

Built with Electron, React, TypeScript, Python, and Rust, Hydra is available for Windows and Linux.
