Steam Families: The Sibling Peace Treaty for Gamers Finally Arrives
Steam Families is here to save sibling relationships! Now, up to five family members can access a shared game library simultaneously, but don’t expect to share with friends like it’s Netflix. Valve’s new feature is a game-changer, but with a few catches.
Hot Take:
Look out, sibling rivalries! Steam Families is here to make sure the only thing you’re fighting over is who gets the high score, not who gets to play!
