Valve has officially announced the dates for all Steam Sales throughout the rest of 2021. This includes a Winter Sale around the holiday season, an Autumn Sale that runs during Black Friday and a (currently available) Halloween Sale.
Steam Sales typically offer the best discounts you’ll find all year on popular PC games. Their exact dates often leak a few days prior to their arrival, but it’s great to see Valve jumping the gun and giving its community a chance to properly prepare for the massive promotions. You can find full dates for the three remaining Steam Sales of 2021 below:

  • Steam Halloween Sale: October 28th – November 1st
  • Steam Autumn Sale: November 24th – November 30th
  • Steam Winter Sale: December 22nd – January 5th

Although Valve didn’t offer an exact time of day these sales will become available, Steam is typically updated around 1 p.m. ET – which also happens to be the time its current Halloween Sale was pushed live.

From the Epic Games Store to Origin, here are a few other great deals that will only hang around during the spooky season:
