Directly transferring GOG games to Steam is not possible because GOG and Steam are separate platforms with their own libraries and purchase systems. However, you can add GOG games as non-Steam games to your Steam library for convenience in launching the games. This is done by selecting '+ Add a Game' at the bottom of your Steam library, and choosing 'Add a Non-Steam Game.' Although this won’t give you Steam-specific features like achievements, it does allow for easier access and organization.
