News | You can link your Steam and PlayStation accounts together

Earlier this year there were already rumors about the possibility of connecting the two accounts, but Sony has now launched an official webpage explaining to players how this works.

It seems that linking accounts has to be done game by game. The first game to make use of this is Marvel’s Spider-Man, according to a new Steam update. By linking both accounts in the menu of the PC version of the game, people will receive access to the Resilient Suit and the Concussive Blast Gadget, as well as two skill points. If players had already unlocked these perks in the game itself, they will not receive anything.

Sony writes that in future PC versions of PlayStation games, people can also unlock other extras by linking accounts. You will also receive updates on PlayStation Studios games. You can always choose to disconnect the accounts for each game afterwards.
