I doubt Microsoft would allow that or the game's developers OR Valve. MS would want their cut, Valve would want theirs and that means the developer gets less.

Ultimately it would be up to the developer anyways as it is their product and chances are they would see it as a lost sale and lost income.

It would be "cool", but it's not a very realistic scenario. Like it would be cool if I could fly like superman, but that's not very likely to happen either.

Cross save progression.

Linking to Steam allows Xbox players and Steam Users to play cross-play for games that support it.

Back 4 Blood is a good example of this.

MS sells PC games and they use their Xbox app for PC gaming too. MS does have their Xbox anywhere feature where games bought on Xbox or PC (purchased on their platform) can be played on either.

But between MS and Steam, sharing save games or some other limited user account info is a lot different than sharing game licenses between services.

Yep, that's my gaming dream. Linking Xbox to Steam and vice versa. So far, we have Ge Force Now where we can play Steam thru our Xbox. That'll have to do for now.
