Steam como alternativa Linux a Origin
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
Steam is a solid replacement for Origin if you primarily need a stable client to launch and update EA games. It handles installation, updates, cloud saves, and social features well on Linux. However, it is not a direct 1:1 swap because it lacks the specific EA Play subscription management interface and may not support all legacy EA titles that are exclusive to the EA app. If your library consists of modern EA titles like Apex Legends or newer Battlefield games, Steam works well. If you rely on older, Origin-exclusive titles or specific EA Play perks, you may still need the Windows client.

Abrir tus archivos de Origin
Steam does not open or import save files directly from the Origin client. Save data is typically stored in different directory structures. If a game supports SteamCloud, it will sync its own saves. For local saves, you will need to manually copy files from the Origin directory to the Steam game directory, though exact paths vary by title.

Can I play all my EA games on Steam?
No. Only EA titles that are officially distributed on Steam can be played there. Legacy titles exclusive to the EA app or Origin will not appear in your Steam library.
Does Steam support EA Play?
Steam does not have a dedicated EA Play management interface. You must manage your EA Play subscription through the EA website or the EA app. However, if a game is available on Steam and you have EA Play, you may be able to access EA Play content within the Steam version, depending on the title.
Will my save files transfer automatically?
If the game supports SteamCloud, saves will sync automatically. For games without cloud save support, you will need to manually copy save files from your Origin directory to the Steam directory.
