It’s true for me at least. If I like a freebie from Epic, I’m more likely to buy it on Steam also just so that I can use it easily with the Steam Deck without additional configuration.
Yeah, you need to install the Heroic launcher. Download the game, then in steam, add it as a non-steam game. This will let you access it from the nice UI.

Or install Decky and its plugin Unifydeck to have your Epic and GOG libraries appear seamlessly in your Steam library.
