• Best Steam Summer Sale 2020 Deals

Summer is always a busy time for deals, and while huge sales from Nintendo, Xbox, and PlayStation have already ended, one of the season's biggest gaming sales just launched. Every June, Steam users look forward to an absolute truckload of PC games going on sale as part of the platform's annual Summer Sale, and the time has finally come: Steam Summer Sale 2020 is live now, as predicted by a developer at SteamDB back in May.

A list of all Steam sale events. When is the next Steam Sale? Summer Sale 2020. 25 June — 9 July. Thursday, lasted 14 days. Like the Summer Sale or Winter. The Steam Summer Sale 2020 has provided a whole host of seriously tempting deals on some of the best PC games on the market. With thousands of games on sale, from indies to blockbuster hits.

Steam Summer Sale 2020 dates and times

Steam Summer Sale 2020 kicked off today, June 25, and will run until July 9, ending at 10 PM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST.

Steam Summer Sale theme and trading cards

While last year's Steam Summer Sale had a unique Grand Prix theme, Steam Summer Sale 2020 looks to have a more generic summer road trip theme. There's no real mini-game this year, but you can earn Summer Sale trading cards. You'll get one trading card for every $10 USD that you spend; plus, you'll earn one card a day during the sale by completing your Discovery Queue. You can then craft those cards to gain levels for the Summer Road Trip Badge.

A 'Road Trip Special' is also available during the Steam Summer Sale. You can save an additional $5 on any purchase of $30 or more. The discount is applied at checkout. There's also a free sticker to claim each day the sale is live.

Steam Summer Sale introduces Points Shop

Steam has launched the Points Shop alongside the Summer Sale, which will now be open year-round and lets you earn points as you shop. You'll earn 100 points for every dollar you spend, whether that's on a game, DLC, application, soundtrack, or in-game items. Those points can then be redeemed for Profile or Chat items, including animated avatars, frames, backgrounds, and badges.

You can also redeem your points to get a background or emoticon for games you already own, including those that were previously associated with trading cards. Another new feature: Community Awards, which let you reward reviews or other user-generated content that you find particularly insightful, heartwarming, or notable in some other way. There are also badges you can earn by rewarding others' content.

Unlike previous Steam sales where items you earned expired after a certain amount of time, any Point Shop items will be yours to keep and have unlimited uses, with the exception of a special Summer Golden Profile that you can purchase--it'll display for up to 30 days.

Best Deals This Week

Have some Steam wallet points to spend but not too sure on what to get? Confused over which game would give you more bang for your buck? We’ve got you covered. We’ve combed through the Steam Summer Sale and came up with 5 of the best deals you can get based on game ratings and discount prices!

A Plague Tale: Innocence – 66% Off

A Plague Tale: Innocence flew under the radar for many people in 2019, but this debut game from Asobo Studio ended up being one of GameSpot’s best games of the year. This action-adventure game is set in 14th-century France during a Bubonic plague that has set hordes of ravenous rats loose upon the land. After an attack on their family estate, a young woman named Amicia and her little brother Hugo go on the run from Inquisition soldiers, who are after them for mysterious reasons. The game is largely focused on stealth and strategy, as you must navigate both soldiers and rats while also protecting Hugo, and Amicia can use both her sling and various types of alchemy to attack and create diversions.

Doom Eternal – 50% Off

The latest entry in the Doom series doubles down on what made 2016’s Doom great. Doom Eternal provides you with new means of getting around, allowing you to more smoothly traverse combat arenas as hellacious demons give chase. Combat has new wrinkles thrown in as you not only need to keep moving, but do so while evaluating the threats around you (in order to target weaknesses with specific weapons) and your current needs (as there are particular ways of obtaining more health, armor, and ammo). It’s an intense, thrilling experience, and it looks particularly excellent on a high-end PC.

Half-Life: Alyx – 25% Off

There are quite a few great games you can play on VR headsets, but Half-Life: Alyx is one that really makes the case for games designed exclusively with VR in mind. Grabbing and throwing objects with the new Gravity Gloves feels fantastic, and trying to stay quiet so a blind, unstoppable monster doesn’t hear you makes you naturally hesitant to even close a cupboard door. Exploring City 17 feels incredible through a headset, from the moment you see a Strider towering above the city’s rooftops in the first few minutes of the game to the moment you begin a mind-bending trek near the end I won’t spoil here. Half-Life: Alyx quickly becomes an essential part of the Half-Life universe, even if you think you know how it all ends.

Red Dead Redemption 2 – 20% Off

Red Dead Redemption 2 is arguably the most photorealistic game this generation, especially on PC, where it has the potential to look even better. Rockstar’s sweeping western serves as a prequel to the beloved 2010 hit. Red Dead Redemption 2 has two compelling components: a wonderfully written campaign starring outlaw Arthur Morgan and the do-as-you-please online multiplayer mode Red Dead Online. The former is a lengthy, nuanced adventure filled with interesting and varied missions, characters, and fantastic acting performances. The latter is an ever-evolving mode with cooperative and competitive games that lets you decide how to spend your time in the lavish open world.

Tekken 7 – 75% Off

Tekken 7 represents the series at peak performance. Featuring a stunning roster of fighters, including long-time favorites like Kazuya, Heihachi, King, and Yoshimitsu, Tekken 7 also includes the guest appearance of Street Fighter’s Akuma–who manages to fit right at home in the King of Iron Fist tournament. Tekken 7 also has the most extensive set of DLC fighters in the series, including some original fighters like Leroy Smith, and other guests like FFXV‘s Noctis and Fatal Fury’s Geese Howard. With the fighting mechanics in top form and an extensive suite of unlockables to fight, Tekken 7 is not only a fantastic entry in the series but one of the best 3D fighting games today.
