In Steam we can have lists of friends and to these friends we can give them a game. It is a procedure that we can do entirely on the platform. At the same time, we are given many alternatives to customize the procedure, such as choosing the date and time to deliver the game. Below we explain the steps to follow in this procedure.
So if you plan to gift a game to one of your friends, you will be able to know the way it can be done. This is not a complicated thing and some of your friends on Steam are sure to be excited. What steps do we have to take in this regard?
It is essential to know that Steam only allows you to give gifts to users who are on your friends list. No vas a poder darle un regalo a otro Username si no está en esa lista. Es por ello que es esencial tener esto en cuenta antes de iniciar el procedimiento de regalar dicho juego.
The first thing you should do is select the game you want to give away to that person. In the profile of this game, you must click the button to add to shopping cart. Next, you go to a page where you can see what you are going to buy. There you have a couple of alternatives, one of which is Buy as a gift.
On the next screen, Steam will show you your friends list. You just have to select the friend you want to send said game as a gift. If there are friends who already have the game, their profile picture will be deactivated, so that they do not have the game twice. When you have chosen the friend, you must give it to continue. Subsequently, the platform will ask you to choose the date and time you want to receive the gift. Perfect if it's for his birthday.
Steam then allows you to include a message for that person, which has a maximum of 160 characters. Once this is done, you can finish the purchase, as if you were buying a game in the usual way on the platform.
