If you’re a PC gamer, Steam is your best friend. Valve changed how the best PC games were bought and played when it created this platform and we’ve never looked back. Others like Epic and Ubisoft have tried to create their own launchers, but the hardcore gamers will never abandon Steam. It isn’t just for convenience, either. Steam sales offer the best deals in the entire industry, with massive games regularly seeing discounts of 50%, 60%, 70% or more. Most of us hold off on buying upcoming PC games we’re excited about in hopes that the price will be slashed in an upcoming Steam sale. But how long will you need to wait until the next sale? Steam sales come regularly, but if you’re looking to save up for the next one, here’s how long you have.
When is the next Steam sale?
After the Spring Sale kicked things off, the next time Valve is turning up the heat on sales is the Summer Sale. This event is right in the middle of the hottest months of the year and runs for two weeks rather than just one, starting on June 26 and ending on July 10. That’s a lot of time for to grab all the games on your wishlist so plan ahead and save some cash because there are sure to be some deals that are just too good to pass up.
Steam sales do pop up all the time between the major seasonal ones, but the four big sales are always the Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter sales, so your best bet at a great deal is to wait for these events.
