Steam now offering remote downloadsGet games downloaded before you get home Posted by Alex 'SpectralShock' V on May 16, 2012 - 5:16pm EST (May 16, 2012 17:16) |
Valve has confirmed that starting immediately, users’ Steam library of games can now be managed remotely via the web.
With an active Steam client running on the remote PC or Mac, users may log into the Steam web site or mobile app to access and manage their library of games, downloading pre-loads, new releases, or their latest purchases, as soon as they’re available. To kick off a remote download, simply visit your Games list on the Steam Community site, which can be accessed from your own profile using a web browser or the Steam mobile app on iOS or Android. If logged into the latest update of the Steam client on a PC or Mac, there you’ll see which games are currently installed, and have the ability to install others from your library. Or, seamlessly complete your online purchase with remote installation: When a remote session is detected, the Steam store will ask whether you'd like to download your new purchases immediately. The feature was previously in beta, and is now available to all. |
