First off, add your Epic Games as a non-Steam game. Open Steam, head to the bottom left corner, click 'ADD A GAME,' then 'Add a Non-Steam Game.' Browse for the Epic Games Launcher or the specific game's .exe file, add it, and voila! You can now launch it directly from your Steam library.

I鈥檝e done this with a couple of games. It's a nice way to keep all my games in one place. After adding the Epic game to Steam, you can even access the Steam overlay while playing, which is pretty neat for screenshots or chatting with friends on Steam.

Honestly, just launch Epic Games directly, why bother mixing the two? It's like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.

It's a neat trick but remember, you're essentially just adding a shortcut in Steam. The game still runs through the Epic launcher, so you need to have that installed and running in the background.
