NonSteamLaunchers is a tool to let you easily install launchers for different game platforms, as well as installing their games properly where they can be launched directly through steam.

Supported launchers:

  • Amazon Games Launcher ✔️
  • Battle.net ✔️
  • EA App ✔️
  • Epic Games ✔️
  • GOG Galaxy ✔️
  • Humble Games Collection ✔️
  • IndieGala ✔️
  • Itch.io ✔️
  • Legacy Games ✔️
  • Rockstar Games Launcher ✔️
  • Ubisoft Connect ✔️
  • Glyph ✔️
  • Minecraft ✔️
  • Playstation Plus ✔️
  • VK Play ✔️

It also supports making web apps for the following:

  • Website Shortcut Creator ✔️
  • Xbox Game Pass ✔️
  • GeForce Now ✔️
  • Amazon Luna ✔️
  • Netflix ✔️
  • Amazon Prime Video ✔️
  • Disney+ ✔️
  • Hulu ✔️
  • Youtube ✔️
  • Twitch ✔️
  • movie-web ✔️

There are better options for some of these game launchers, things like Heroic and Junk store would be better options for Epic for example. However this tool supports a ton of platforms, and is very possibly the easiest way to play games from a lot of these platforms on Deck.

This won't remove unnecessary launchers from steam games that require them, it just lets you more easily install games that you own on other platforms.
