Yes, you can link your FFVII Ever Crisis mobile and PC via Steam save data. Square Enix noted it’d be an option ahead of time, and it turns out the process is very simple.
How do I link my FFVII Ever Crisis mobile save data to Steam
The first thing you want to do is make sure you don’t delete or remove the mobile version of FFVII Ever Crisis before you start the link data process. This is because you need to create a backup first. It isn’t like you have an account and are logging into servers to access the file via the cloud.
Head into the game on your Apple or Android device. You’ll need to bring up the main meny once you’re on the Home Screen. This is by clicking the three lines in the upper right corner. (You know that familiar hamburger by now, I’ll wager.) When you’re in that Menu screen, you need to scroll down to the Game Data section. It’s right below Info, but ahead of the Other area. The third option in this section, just after the Full Download one that helps reduce load times, is Link Data. Choosing it will start a process that involves logging into a Square Enix Account and noting that you want to Link New Account.
From there, make sure FFVII Ever Crisis is running in Steam on your Windows PC to finish the Link Data save file process. As the UI is identical, you now want to click the three lines in the upper right corner to bring up the Menu again while on the title screen. Don’t tap to start. When in this menu, you’ll see the Game Data section above Other. The first option there is Link Data. Because you backed things up earlier via your Square Enix Account, all you need to do is log in.
Note that if you get a message saying Link Data is under maintenance, it means servers are down or Square Enix is updating the title. You haven’t done anything wrong, and you just need to check the official social media account to see when it’s back online or wait a few hours.
