Playing on same computer without downloading game twice

There are two users on my PC who own Star Wars Battlefront II. One owns the celebration edition through Steam, and I own the basic version through Epic Games. Is there any way for us both to have access to this space monster without downloading it twice, or no?

  • I imagine each of you will need to go thru the process of installing the game (certain registry entries and all). From what I've gathered, the design is such that the executables can be in the same location (to address your free space point) and the user-specific files go in your own user folders.

    This being said, I doubt your scenario was a primary use case for the game. So, you may find it difficult to achieve.
