- Guide
Find PC games your whole friend group already owns
Shared games are titles every invited friend can launch tonight from linked Steam, Epic, and EA libraries. Not wishlists, backlog polls, or games only one person owns. Compare ownership for tonight's roster, then shortlist from overlap.
- Guide
What games can we play together on PC tonight?
Tonight you can only launch what everyone on the roster already owns across linked Steam, Epic, and EA. Build a shortlist of two to five from that overlap, pick one, and pin a session. Skip the backlog poll in Discord.
- Guide
Co-op when one of you buys on Steam and the other on Epic
Compare libraries as a pair. Shortlist shared titles. Schedule one session. No library screenshots in chat.
- Guide
PC co-op game night checklist before you send the invite
Six steps so Friday starts in-game, not in another planning thread.
- Guide
Pick a multiplayer game without another Discord poll
Filter to titles everyone owns, shortlist 2-5, then pin one on the session invite.
- Guide
Add PC gaming friends by email. Without store friend codes
One friends list for your squad. Compare linked libraries across stores.
- Guide
Your first PC game night with PlayGrid
Six steps from Discord setup to a pinned session. No installer.
- Guide
Wishlists vs owned games for multiplayer planning
Shared games counts libraries you can launch. Not what everyone wants to buy someday.
- Guide
Rotate who picks the co-op game each week
The picker builds a 2-5 list from overlap. Not from personal backlog favorites.
- Guide
Plan a co-op night when only part of your squad plays tonight
Run overlap for the people actually showing up. Not the entire Discord server.
- Guide
Find shared Steam and Epic games in Discord Activity
Ask “what can we play?” for the people on the call - with ownership across stores, not a Steam-only slash command.
- Guide
Own Friday game night without another hour on Discord
Same weekly slot, honest overlap list, one invite with game, time, and who's in - sync, shortlist, RSVP without reopening chat.
- Guide
Gaming session invites with RSVP your group can trust
Pin game, time, and roster in one session. Friends accept or decline in the app or via optional Discord DMs.
- Guide
Schedule PC gaming when friends live in different time zones
Pin start time and timezone on the session so nobody does mental math in chat.
- Guide
PC game session host notes. DLC, edition, and Discord
Put details on the session so late joiners skip scrolling chat.
- Guide
Plan a co-op game night in Discord Activity
Skip the poll thread. Open Activity while you are already in voice chat, link stores in the browser, and lock a session before anyone alt-tabs away.
- Guide
Sync your Steam, Epic, and EA libraries in one list
PlayGrid merges linked Steam, Epic, and EA into one library with store badges. Re-sync after purchases, free claims, or a long break so friend overlap stays accurate.
- Guide
Friend owns the game on Epic, you on Steam. Can you still play?
If you each own the title on your store, it counts toward shared games. PlayGrid shows that overlap before you pitch co-op. Ownership first, then confirm the game supports cross-store multiplayer.
- Guide
Same game on Steam and Epic. How PlayGrid groups duplicates
One row with badges for your copy. Shared games checks that everyone owns the title somewhere.
- Guide
When to sync your library after a new purchase or free game
Run sync before overlap and game night. Especially after Epic free claims.
- Guide
Set up PlayGrid for a Discord co-op server
Admins add the bot once. Members plan from Discord Activity: link stores in the browser, match games in voice chat, RSVP. Start the game in Steam or Epic.
- Guide
PlayGrid Discord commands and Activity
Use `/playgrid help` in any server with the bot, or skim this page when you want the full list, prerequisites, and how Activity differs from channel posts.
