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.
Why duos split across Steam and Epic
Sales, free-game claims, and habit push pairs onto different stores. The question is whether you both own the same title on a store you can launch tonight.
This workflow is for a fixed duo, not a rotating squad roster.
Duo workflow in PlayGrid
- Both link Steam, Epic, and EA on Windows.
- Add each other as friends by email.
- Open shared ownership for your pair and shortlist 2-3 titles.
- Schedule one session with a pinned game and time.
FAQ
What if we own the same game on different stores?
PlayGrid groups confident duplicate matches in one row with store badges. Pick the edition you both can launch before you schedule.
Is this only for couples?
Any fixed duo works: roommates, siblings, or two friends who always play together.
