Dealing with the subject of death is always difficult, because in some cases it comes unexpectedly, either due to physical accidents or simply due to an unexpected way of behaving in the human body, and in those cases who leave for more. Normal and “ordinary”, they usually prepare a paper to leave their belongings with their loved ones. With that in mind, there are people in the gaming world who have analyzed it and wondered if it could somehow be the successor to Steam’s digital game collection.
Through the platform’s forum valve, a user asked if there was a way to inherit games acquired from trusted individuals, leaving passwords to transfer them, such as DLC and other additional payments. However, the company gave him a direct answer, and it was a resounding “no”, which is somewhat logical for those who have analyzed the situation.

Here is its description steam:
Steam is a digital video game distribution platform developed by Valve Corporation. Started in 2003 as a way to distribute and update your own games, Steam has grown into one of the largest digital video game distribution platforms in the world.
Steam has transformed the video game industry by providing a centralized platform for digital distribution, making it easier for both large and independent developers to reach a global audience.
As already seen in the post, at the moment there is no way to transfer the game to other users in case of death on any given day, so the user has to think of other options which might be easier to find. Well, the players commented that the username and password can be added to the will so that the heir can use it as best suits him, only the means of payment must be excluded and replaced with the data of the current owner along with the changes. Player Name

Author’s Note: No one is thinking of leaving this world anytime soon, but it may well be that video games have the potential to inherit. However, there is always the option to leave the account keys and that’s it, the previous owner will have access to the titles.
