Anyway to get games already owned to Steam?

★★★ Newbie

Title. Since C&C: The Ultimate Edition has just been released, I want to try playing it on steam instead of the Origin app, but I don't want to try and repurchase it. Is there a way of doing it properly, or will I still need to use the "Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library" button?

@DailyEvilKiller There isn't a proper way to do that because they are two separate platforms you purchase the game through. Unless you purchased it again, you would have to use the add a non-steam game option.

@Jehute Both being PC have nothing to do it with. They are two separate platforms, two separate stores with separate entitlements.
