How to check what accounts are linked to Steam


A benefit to online gaming is linking specific platforms together. Steam is no exception to this ability and can be linked to many other platforms for different reasons and benefits. For example, Steam can be linked to platforms like Epic Games or Discord to use non-steam games on Steam or share profiles.

The problem with this is Steam doesn’t have an option to view what you have linked to. You can only view this by checking the platform you link Steam to. If you link your Steam account to Epic Games, you will need to open the Epic Games launcher and view your accounts connections.

Method – How to view your linked Steam account on Epic Games

  • Open the Epic Games launcher
  • Sign in to your Epic Games launcher
  • Go to your account icon
  • Click “Account”
  • Sign in to the web browser
  • Go to “Connections”
  • Click “Accounts”
  • You can see if Steam has been connected to Epic Games

Why would you link your Steam account to other platforms

Steam can be linked to many other platforms, each with its benefits and reasons to link. However, you can’t view these links on Steam unless you visit the site you linked to.

The benefit you get from linking your Steam account depends on what platform you link to; this guide will cover how to view your Steam account link and link and unlink your Steam account.

The main benefit of linking your Steam account to Epic Games will be to add Steam friends to Epic or if you need to link your Steam account to play a game from Epic Games.

Another reason to link to Steam is to use the feature where you can “Add a non-steam game to my library,” you can export some of your Epic Games library onto Steam. This allows you to start these games from Steam, and you can use Steam’s controller support and other Steam features. Using these features is one of the main reasons to use Epic Games with Steam, as some games on Epic Games lack controller support.
