How do Steam Trading Cards work?
Steam Trading Cards are virtual cards earned by playing games on Steam. You can collect a set of cards to earn items that help you customise your Steam profile.
Can I log into multiple accounts via Steam?
No, only a single RuneScape character can be linked to your Steam account. You can change which character is linked to your Steam account, but any Store or in game purchases you have already made will remain on the RuneScape character you originally purchased them on.
Can I have different RuneScape and Old School characters added to Steam at the same time?
It is only possible to have a single character linked to your Steam account. As soon as you link a character to Steam, both the RuneScape and Old School RuneScape profiles of that character will be linked to the respective games. You can change which character is linked to Steam.
Why am I receiving the error "Please add another authentication method in order to un-link your Steam account"?
If you are trying to un-link your Steam account and receive the following error message; "Please add another authentication method in order to un-link your Steam account", you will need to upgrade your Steam login character to a Jagex Account before following the steps to un-link.
