Catto Pew Pew requires a third-party account through the Catto Pew Pew Account System to save progress, sync ranks across VR and PC, and persist settings between sessions. Steam lists this as a required third-party account agreement. This guide covers account creation, linking, cross-platform sync, and troubleshooting the most common login problems players encounter at launch.
Creating Your Account
On first launch, Catto Pew Pew prompts account creation through the in-game registration flow. Provide a valid email address and create a secure password. Username becomes your visible identity in lobbies and on leaderboards.
Steam requires agreement to the Catto Pew Pew EULA and third-party account terms before playing. Read the privacy policy to understand how Oakley Blade Games handles your data — particularly voice chat and proximity chat recordings if applicable.
One account per player — account sharing violates terms of service and causes sync conflicts. Each household member needs their own account for separate rank progression.
Linking Steam and Cross-Platform Sync
Link your Steam account during setup to connect PC purchases including Coolest Catto DLC and cosmetics. Steam Link VR sessions on Quest also authenticate through the linked Steam account chain.
Progress syncs automatically when online — trophies, ranks, cosmetics, and settings upload to account servers. Launch on any platform with the same account to continue where you left off.
Offline play may not sync until reconnected. Avoid playing ranked modes offline if possible, as trophy changes might not persist correctly without server connection.
CLASSIC Migration and DLC Verification
CLASSIC players with prior DLC purchases claim bonuses separately from standard account creation. Provide SupportID and proof of CLASSIC Coolest Catto DLC purchase through the official Discord channel.
Migration bonuses are processed manually by the development team — allow time for verification. Keep purchase receipts from Steam transaction history as proof.
New game accounts do not automatically inherit CLASSIC progress. Ranks and trophies start fresh in the 2026 release. Only DLC ownership transfers through the bonus program.
Account Security
Use a unique password not shared with other services. Enable any available two-factor authentication if offered in account settings. Account theft means losing rank progress and purchased cosmetics.
Never share login credentials with friends, even for "host-share" DLC purposes. Host-share works through in-game lobby hosting, not account sharing.
Report suspicious account activity through official Discord or support channels. Oakley Blade Games can investigate and restore compromised accounts with sufficient verification.
Troubleshooting Login Issues
Login failures at launch often result from server load on release day. Wait and retry. Check official Discord for server status announcements during outages.
Sync conflicts occur when playing on multiple devices simultaneously. Log out of one device before switching to another. Force-close the game on unused devices.
Lost account access requires email recovery through the registration address. If email access is lost, contact support with Steam purchase history as identity verification.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a Catto Pew Pew account required to play?
Yes. Steam lists a required third-party account for Catto Pew Pew. Account creation is mandatory for multiplayer and progress saving.
Does my account work on Quest and PC?
Yes. One account syncs progress across PC flatscreen, PC VR, and Quest via Steam Link. Log in with the same credentials on each platform.
Can I change my username?
Username change availability depends on account settings. Check the in-game profile menu or account website for rename options and any associated costs.

Account deletion permanently removes rank progress, cosmetics, and purchase linkages. This action is irreversible. Contact support before deleting if unsure.
