Apex legends (Steam)

[justBeneaux]

hello everybody !

ive been playing apex legends for a long time with origin. now knowing apex gonna release on steam as well, i have question.

i have the apex legends local files on origin directory already, do i have to "Download" the whole 50 gb again on steam in order to open it from steam ? or i dont need to download it ? 

Have a nice day !
Ben
