Game Download On Mobile
You should be able to download games on mobile or at least have a URL to google play or apple store (I guess they HAVE to link for apple but just have an .apk for android)

Mobile games and PC games are separate products. If a game you see on Steam has a mobile version available in Google Play or the Apple store, you can buy it from there instead of on Steam.

Games are not compatible with mobile devices. Game devs can port their games to mobile already. You can already use the remote download feature to dl and install to your PC.

There's Steam Link for that, even if it's only Streaming.

You must have a PC to play Steamgames, period.
Steam does not sell mobile games.
Apple and Google wouldn't allow Steam in their ecosystem if that was the case.

And yeah, the reason why Steam doesn't sell mobile games is this one. Apple and Google won't cut their revenue to make space to another company.

Epic tried, and look and what is happening between Google/Apple and Epic.

If you have a fast internet, you can play some of your Steam games via GeForce NOW, by the way.

It's not as easy as you think. Not everyone is tech-savy and knows what an APK is (without counting other technical reasons). Please, just buy a new computer *if* and *when* you have the money to afford it, and stop complaining about not being able to play your library on your phone.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
