Adding Games to Steam on Linux

How to add your Heroic library to Steam?

If you're facing problems in launching your Heroic games on Steam, you can take a look at Heroic Bash Launcher.

What is Heroic Bash Launcher?

Heroic Bash Launcher is a tool that helps launch your Heroic Games library from the terminal or any game manager/launcher.

Syncing

Once you've run the HeroicBashLauncher executable, the AddToSteam bash script will be generated that helps sync your Heroic library to Steam. It basically displays a list of installed games and lets you choose games to be added to Steam.

1. Go to LIBRARY
2. Click ADD A GAME

4. Select BROWSE on the new window that appears
5. For File Type, make sure to choose All Files
6. Navigate to ~/HeroicBashLauncher/GameFiles and choose the game's launch file
7. If you want to add more games, repeat steps 4-6
8. Finally, click on ADD SELECTED PROGRAMS

You're all setup!
