Does anyone know if Steam is having a halloween sale this year?

Archy · 9 Oct 2020 at 10:51

After a quick google, October 29th, but nothing confirmed.

Thanks Archy, theres a few horror titles I'd like to pick up to play for Halloween and hoping that Steam might have a sale so I can grab them a little cheaper

Of course they will. Trine 4 is the only game I really want to buy discounted. I'm still hundreds of hours into Skyrim will no intention of dropping it any time soon.

Halloween steam sale is up now.

Decided to spend the 49.99 that I would have spent in November on Cyberpunk, so I picked up...

Hades
Song of Horror
Little Nightmares
Night of the Dead

£50 all in, so that balances out the money that would have gone on Cyberpunk

Sale is up
Going to have a proper trawl through the deals this weekend but the standouts for me are Pathfinder and Stellaris right now

Pathfinder Kingmaker is worth every penny of its £11 price, plus about another £100 on top

Really tempted to grab Jedi Fallen Order now Cyberpunks been delayed, but its still seems bit expensive?

I subbed to Origin Access for a month, played through Fallen Order, and cancelled. Unless you want to actually own the game it's def the cheapest way of playing it.

I've recently built my new rig, 10900k, 3090 and a 4k monitor. I'm looking for some games to play that are going to look good with this setup, I've currently got Doom Eternal and WatchDogs Legion, are there any other games in the sale that are recommended to push my system?

I haven't played it but I've read that Control is a good looker - as is Metro Exodus.

I picked up defence grid 2... Love a bit of tower defense

is Metro Last Light redux worth a pop at 2.99? never played any of Metro games before

At 2.99 it is a very good deal, I love all the Metro games....... Go for it mate

I went crazy and bought the 3 STALKER games for 7 quid. They come up fairly often as recommendations here. Fallout 4 was on offer not long ago too, so there's more than enough to keep me busy.

Nevakonaza · 31 Oct 2020 at 09:46

Bought Daymare 1998 as that looks good, Under £7 too.

Did the same, it's a decent game but one playthrough and no need to play it again. There's little of value on Origin to maintain a subscription. It's worth a $10 for a month rental.

Oh wow...Song of Horror is excellent. Love it, sort of old school Resident Evil in some ways but modern in others, love the mechanic of having multiple characters to use and how the events follow on from one character to the next. I've played it a few hours tonight and thought I was nearing the end but turns out it was only the end of Episode 1. Terrific game, some good jump scares too. Highly recommended from me.

This actually looks great.

I'm a big fan of the old school RE and Silent Hill games and this looks very reminiscent.

Halloween steam sale?
