It’s not just Steam that has sale events, albeit those are the ones most PC gamers think of. Other outlets such as GOG also put some deals on as well, and the CD Projekt-owned distribution site has recently started its winter sale.
If you head over to Good Old Games, you’ll see a host of titles that are currently on offer. The event is going until January 4, so you’ve got some time to get a few downloads in around the Christmas period.
As for what’s on offer, there’s a veritable bevy of classic/retro and more modern releases. For example, the original Mortal Kombat games are currently 75% off, as is the complete Yakuza series. The remake of System Shock is 35% off and, naturally, Cyberpunk 2077 and the DLC are discounted at 50% and 15% respectively.
Yes, of course Skyrim is in the sale, too
All-in-all, there are around 6,000 games that are part of the winter sales event. Oh, I could list off many more examples, but I’d be here for quite some time.
Suffice it to see, there’s quite a few that I’ll be tempted to pick up between now and January. I was pleasantly surprised to see the Myst 30th anniversary collection at nearly 60% off. Not because I’m a fan of Myst (have never played it), but because I don’t think I even knew it was that old. Time is fleeting, etc.
Anyway, as we approach the end of 2023, all the gaming platforms and websites will be putting on their own sales. Look out for the Steam winter event next week. Admit it. That’s probably what most of you are waiting for.
