The first Blizzard game coming to Steam will be Overwatch 2, and it’ll be available on August 10th — just in time for Steamers (that’s what they’re called, right?) to participate in the Overwatch 2: Invasion event that introduces the long-awaited PvE story missions.

Well this will certainly make things easier than having multiple launchers. Wish we could link the two platforms instead of having to pay twice.. but I think that’s a pipe dream.

You can add non steam games to steam so you only have to look at one launcher. You won't have all of the information that gamea purchased on steam come from though.

Friends list too. On steam deck to play d4 right now you have to link to the bnet launcher I believe

Yeah just like ea and ubi games. You can buy them on steam but when you launch them it opens the respective launcher and then launches. I just did it with rocket League the other day because I have it on steam but I put some old parts together for daughter to have her own PC and you can only get rocket league through epic. So I installed the added it to steam so she can launch it right from there.
