Buy the DRM free version on GOG if you haven’t already.
Can steam and gog players play together?
There was in their previous game DOS2 and Larian's website says you can.
Sorry, dumb question, what's GOG?
It is another digital game store owned by CD Project, parent company of company that made the Witcher series and Cyberpunk 2077. They originally started by selling old games that they would get running on newer OSes. They have since started selling new games and have an alright launcher that you can link to other stores to see your entire game collection.
Most importantly, GOG as a storefront does not allow DRM. If you buy a game on GOG and keep the installer around (on a drive that's regularly backed up), you'll always have the ability to play that game even if GOG's servers die.
Gog.com Alternative games with some focus on old games.
