What is Steam?
Steam is the PC gaming equivalent of Netflix. Steam is an online platform that lets gamers play, buy, create and discuss any game. It is the largest digital distribution platform for PC gaming.
A Steam account gives you access to play the newest games, and awesome classics, get free trials or early access to games and even download mods and add-ons. Steam automatically updates your game, saves content and synchronizes the cloud with your account.
Steam has millions of players who connect with each other, make friends and share the joy of gaming with people from England, Europe and across the whole world. There are thousands of titles on Steam coming from major game producers and from indie developers alike.
With cloud-based technology Steam allows users to download and buy their favourite game titles on their hardware but store the data in the cloud meaning that they can store a huge number of titles without using up computer storage.
To access Steam’s features users have to install the “Steam engine”, or rather Steam’s software, onto their PC. Once installed you get access to every service Steam offers.
Steam also offers cross-platform play meaning you can play across various platforms and games like Playstation or Xbox series games.

Steam has created a system which allows users to share their game library and download it onto multiple devices. Although not all titles are able to be shared many are and to do this you can create a gaming group. Within this group, each invited member can share their entire library.
You cannot share one specific game with others so much choose to share the whole library of titles. These games can also only be played simultaneously when offline. Only one person may play online at any given time, and the priority goes to the person who initially purchased the game.
