legendary list connects to the Epic Games Store and retrieves every title associated with your account, printing each game’s app name, title, and version. This is typically the first command to run after authenticating — it gives you the exact app names you need for install, launch, and other commands. On your first run the command may take a while depending on the size of your library, as Legendary downloads metadata for every title.
Usage
Flags
Platform to fetch the game list for. Defaults to Mac when running on macOS, otherwise Windows. Useful when you want to see which Windows titles are available from a macOS machine or vice versa.
Also include Unreal Engine content (Engine builds and Marketplace assets) in the listing. Without this flag, Unreal Engine items are hidden.
Include apps that cannot be installed directly through Legendary — for example, titles that must be activated and launched through Origin/EA App. These are hidden by default.
Output the game list in CSV format, suitable for piping into spreadsheet tools or scripts.
Output the game list in TSV (tab-separated values) format.
Output the game list as a JSON array, useful for programmatic processing.
Force a full refresh of all game metadata from Epic’s servers, bypassing any locally cached data. Use this if the list looks out of date or after purchasing new games.
Examples
Notes
The first run of
legendary list may take a while depending on how many games are in your library, since Legendary fetches and caches metadata for each title individually.
