How Do I Install Steam on ChromeOS?
Asked by

I'm using a Chromebook with ChromeOS and want to install Steam. What settings or steps do I need to follow to enable the Linux environment and install Steam correctly?
Answers
Check the Chromebook’s app launcher first—Steam may already be available there if your device supports it. If it isn’t listed, you’ll probably need to enable Linux support in the system settings.

Enable the Linux development environment in ChromeOS settings, then open the Linux Terminal. Download the Steam .deb package for Debian-based Linux, install it, and launch Steam afterward. The exact steps can vary by ChromeOS version and Chromebook model, so make sure your device supports Linux apps and has enough storage.
