PCGW Account

PCGamingWiki have transitioned over to using a single sign-on (SSO) Keycloak solution to bridge the wiki and community sites and accounts, which will be referred to as the PCGW Account. Instead of having two separate accounts with two separate passwords (and potentially usernames), your username and password is now shared between both sites through the PCGW Account.

If you do not already have a PCGW Account you will have to create one here. Note that email verification is required, so be sure to type the mail address correctly!

  • The PCGW Account will automatically link up with your existing account(s) on either site if the specified mail address matches an existing account.
  • If you did not have an account previously on either of the sites, a new profile will be created when you sign in to the site using the PCGW Account.

Please note that the verification mail will be sent from account@pcgamingwiki.com and might arrive to the junk folder of your mailbox, so if you have not received the mail after a minute or two be sure to check that folder out as well.

I already have an account to the wiki and/or community site(s). Do I still need to sign up for a PCGW Account?

Yes, if you do not already have a PCGW Account you will have to create one. Note that the ability to create a PCGW Account have been available for a few months now during its testing phase, so some users might already have a PCGW Account.

I prefer to sign in using my old account. Is this still possible?

No, this is no longer possible as that functionality have been disabled. The new PCGW Account will automatically link up with your existing account(s) on either site if the specified mail address matches an existing account.

I created a PCGW Account but I am unable to access my old account through it on one (or both) of the sites.

This is usually due to some data not correlating properly between the old and new PCGW Account. Please email help@pcgamingwiki.com where your ticket wil be generated and looked at by the server administrator.

How do I connect my Steam account to my existing PCGW Account?

Please sign in to the federated identities of the account management site and click on Add, which will take you to the Steam Community OpenID login page where you will finalize the link.

I would like to change the mail address, name, or password for my PCGW Account

Please sign in to the account management site where those options are available.

The verification mail did not arrive in time. How do I generate a new verification link?

Please use the Forgot Password? option on the PCGW Account and change password of your account and in the process you will get a new verification mail.
