Can You Move Games from Xbox to Steam? How to Access Xbox Games on Steam
Learn if you can move games from Xbox to Steam and how to link Xbox games to your Steam library using shortcuts.

Moving games directly from Xbox to Steam is not supported because these platforms have different ecosystems and licensing agreements. However, you can repurchase games on Steam that you own on Xbox, or use Steam's 'Add a Non-Steam Game' feature to link to games installed on your PC, regardless of their original platform. This creates a shortcut in your Steam library for easy access, but it doesn't transfer the game license from Xbox.
