Progress transfer across storefronts?

If I own Hitman 3 on the Epic store, and purchase the game again on STEAM, will my progress be accessible on both storefronts?

Answer is still no.

So my freelancer progress on the EGS won't transfer to STEAM? Why even have always online in the first place if the progress stored in the cloud isn't shared across platforms?

No. Freelancer wasn't even a thing when they set up the progression carryover. It's from H2 to H3.

That was never the intent of their always online requirements. It's essentially being used as DRM.

the always online isn't for you, it's for them

it's for control and data collection, not for quality-of-life features for the players
