Steam is the most popular launcher and storefront on PC, housing millions of players worldwide who love to game on their computers. Like any other platform, each person has a unique profile that belongs only to them. In the case of this beloved program, it's tied to a Steam ID.

Your Steam ID is a 17-digit code that identifies your Steam account and can be used to help people find your profile. You can also use Steam IDs on SteamDB to find a lot of information about a profile and its standing on the service. If you'd like to find your own Steam ID, we'll tell you how to do so below.

You'll finally be able to play Palworld with friends on other platforms later this month. Developer Pocket Pair announced the news on social media earlier today, along with a surprise discount for PlayStation 5 and Steam players — 25% off for a short time. Pocket Pair also hinted at "some little surprises" in the update, though the team didn't give any clue as to what those might be.

Crossplay is easily one of the most requested features in Palworld since its release in early access in 2024. Fans of the game could only play with others on the same platform as themselves, but now anyone — including players on macOS — can join up to build massive bases, fight off the Syndicate, and take down that pesky Menasting.

I can’t stop thinking about this enigmatic new game about AI
A child stands in a doorway in Centum.

It’s a Monday morning as I write this. My day is just beginning and I’m getting my to-do list in order.

Centum. Was it an indigestion-induced fever dream? My Steam account begs to differ, reminding me that I went on a three-hour point and click odyssey over the weekend between social gatherings. It’s not that I had forgotten what I’d played; it’s just that it was so otherworldly that it feels like I played it in another life entirely.
