I have updated my project to the latest version of Unreal Engine and when I run the game in standalone steam doesn’t integrate with it (pop-up in bottom left and overlay) I have read the UE4 documentation and I don’t see any extra steps.
Is there anything I am missing?
Change notes I found about steam /
Have you found any solution? i tried to set it in any ini without luck.
Works fine when launching, but for testing is not worth, standalone would be better.
This is just a work around to test fast for projects in 4.25, in place of the Stand Alone method, which is broken. Using this method Steam Overlay started working again, as if it was done using Lauch or Package Build
Yeye, thx dude, literally just having this problem. lmaoo cant believe the answers was made 13 hours ago.
btw, You forgot to mention to add the Project name + .uproject after path (c:***~projectname~~projectname~.uproject -game) , got me suck there for few minutes
if you still looking for it, check the post below. hope this message sends you an alert of some kind.
LOL, ya we got stuck on this for about 4 days, Epic needs to fix this bug, it is killing everyone’s ability to test.
Thanks man, you are my hero!
I wasted almost the entire day and then I find this, and it works!
Just to clarify in case someone gets confused, the value of “Target:” on the shortcut properties are
"UE4Editor.exe path" + "Your .Uproject path" + "-game"
in my case it goes:
W:\UnrealEngine\Engine\Binaries\Win64\UE4Editor.exe W:\Projects\MyGame.uproject -gameIt didn’t help me on 4.25.4 
I’m sure, I’ve done everything correct. Do I need to move the original file somewhere or rename a “UE4Editor.exe - Shortcut”?
Hello
There is no method that could help me. Maybe I did something wrong.
But if you still have problems with getting Steam-overlay working in Standalone, you can use my free simple editor plugin that fixes that
Just place it in Plugins folder of your project (If it doesn’t exist, then create new one)

Added UE 4.26 and UE5 EA support
Checkout my answer below. Maybe it’s too late, but I hope it would help
Hm. I got an error message
UE4 games require a project file as the first parameter. Any help?
Engine version: 4.25.3
When I click ok, the engine crashes
Oh, I got it
I guess you have spaces in your path to your project:
E.g: C:/UnrealEngine/My Project/MyProject.uproject
My fault 
I gonna fix it within a hour
Could you provide log file or error message here?
Maybe it’s too late, but if you still have issue with Steam, then take a look at my answer below
Create a Batch file and start it every time, it works fine without any incident.
Hey, I have downloaded your plugin but it says about not being built in the same version as I’m using 4.26, does this mean it won’t work? Really struggling to find anything to get my steam working
