Just log into your epic account and claim the games. You don't need to download it until you're ready to play.

No they do not. In order to use these games you must have the EPIC GAMES DOWNLOADER. This is a separate program from Steam and does not hook up or connect to Steam in anyway. You are NOT getting Steam keys. You must use EPIC, not Steam.
ยท
Yes, because if you use Steam, it won't work. You need to use Epic. Not Steam here. Epic Games downloader is what you need. Can't use Steam for this, so don't try. Just Epic only. nodPeaceApplause

Does this deal sync with steam so I can add to my library and download later or do I need to download and install now? Newbie to pc gaming so sorry for what may be a dumb question.

Not a dumb question!
I don't know about syncing to Steam, but I do know that you can grab the games now without having to install them right away. They get added to your Epic Games account so you can download them at any time in the future.

I'm wrong and don't know what I'm talking about. I'm sorry. I did some googling and it appears you'll have to download the games to your computer first in order to add them to steam Frown

Here's an article I found:

The Spirit of the North game reminds of the The First Tree game, another story-driven exploration game with a fox. I enjoyed First Tree, so I am hyped to play Spirit of the North. .
