In 2015, Gretech Corporation released GOM Player Plus, a premium version of the software that offered additional features, such as ad-free playback, priority customer support, and exclusive content.

Even on a 64-bit Windows OS, the 32-bit portable version is often more compatible with older subtitle filters and custom DirectShow filters. However, for high-bitrate 4K HDR content, always launch the 64-bit portable executable.
