On the app, all you have to do is log in, wait for the host PC to appear in Computers, and press the connect button. On the client, you have two ways of accessing the host: through the Parsec app (available for Windows, macOS, Android, Ubuntu Linux, and Raspberry Pi), or through an online browser (your only option for iOS). It will give you an optional URL if you’d like to access the PC from a browser.
Finally, go to Computers and press the share button. Then in the settings menu check that Hosting is enabled and Stay Awake is enabled, and that the correct display is being recorded if you have more than one display. First, download it on your host PC (it works with Windows and macOS only). Lots of people play Steam games with controllers (hello), and one of the things Valve are suggesting is more use of the PlayStation button icons, so players using those controllers don't have to try and understand Xbox inputs all the time.Parsec makes use of open source libraries to bring a multifunctional remote access app into fruition. The only downside is that you can only have one player join without an account via the link, so any others that you want in that session will need to be invited through Steam.Įlsewhere in the world of Steam, Valve are trying to encourage developers to care more about controllers. It sounds pretty neat, especially if you want to play something with a friend or family member who's not so tech-savvy (hi dad). If they have regular Steam installed, that would be used to join the game instead. Send that link to whoever you want to play with (on Window, iOS, Android or Raspberry Pi) and they'll be prompted to download the Steam Link app.įrom the sounds of Valve's explainer, after they have it downloaded, opening the app should quickly connect them to you and your game. Once you're in, open up a game that supports Remote Play Together and grab an invite link from your friends list on the Steam overlay. To use the feature with a friend or family member without Steam, you'll need to use Steam's beta branch (which you can get on by toggling the "beta participation" section in your account settings).
