Steam Spring Sale Ending Soon

March 20, 2024 | By Anthony

In case you hadn’t heard, Steam is currently running their Spring Sale, giving you a chance to catch some of the hottest games at a discount, or older titles at a fraction of their original cost. We’ll go ahead and highlight some games you should consider looking into, whether for yourself or to give as a surprise gift. Before you make any big purchases, you’ll want to be sure that your PC can run them. Customize a gaming desktop with ORIGIN PC to access the performance you’ll need for these and any future titles you want to play.

Hades

If roguelikes are up your alley, you’ve probably either heard of or already played Hades. For anyone that hasn’t, however, this game is a must buy. It’s arguably Supergiant Games’ biggest title to date and its sequel is currently in the works. Follow the story of Zagreus, the son of Hades, as he attempts to escape from the underworld to reach Mount Olympus. Fight your way through, gather power ups, and meet familiar relatives can be swayed to aid you along the way.

Cyberpunk 2077

In spite of less than flattering reception on release, Cyberpunk 2077 has become a well-loved title for its captivating story, gorgeous design, and exciting gameplay. Venture through the dystopian Night City as V, a customizable mercenary, and navigate your way through a vast open-world where you’ll meet a diverse cast of characters.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade

Final Fantasy VII remains a classic memory amongst gamers and the announcement of its remake took the world by storm. While some time has passed since the game’s release on Playstation and PC, you can snag the cult classic at a massive discount alongside a bonus side story. Enjoy new game mechanics and the world of Midgar, remastered and reimaged.

Persona 5 Royal

Another JRPG to look out for is Persona 5 Royal. Explore the world of high schoolers who double as vigilante heroes, the “Phantom Thieves” as they delve into the minds of corrupt enemies. While the game offers simple turn-based combat, it is heavily renowned for its artwork, story, and some richer complexity behind an easy to learn system.

Palworld

Jump into the action of Palworld – while still in early access, you can enjoy a small discount on a rather new release. Enjoy an expansive and diverse world where you can tame and train “Pals” who serve as your companions. With plenty of features built into the game, craft, build, farm, and partake in combat. Experience a unique twist on the survival genre with a game that might remind you of another classic.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

The latest addition to the Yakuza series, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is a direct sequel to Yakuza Like a Dragon. Follow the continuation to Ichiban Kasuga’s story in an enjoyable beat em’ up style RPG. Get some good laughs out of it too with some hilariously added content, while also progressing through a captivating main story.

Street Fighter 6

Street Fighter 6 released last year and if you haven’t already started the latest addition to the iconic franchise, it’s currently 34% off on Steam. With new characters, improved mechanics, and a new story to sift through, there’s something for both hardcore fans and casual button mashers (that’s not to say hardcore fans don’t mash too).

Lethal Company

Looking for a co-op game to enjoy with friends? Lethal Company could be the one. Play as employees of “The Company” as you scavenge abandoned moons to obtain and sell scrap, while fighting for your lives. Avoid traps and survive terrifying monsters for some cash – typical corporate life.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition

Embark on a timeless journey as the Dragonborn, a hero prophesied to save the land of Tamriel. Fans of open-world games will love the nearly endless possibilities left to them. Numerous side-quests, deep character progression, and customization options offer countless hours for you to immerse yourself into the spacious universe presented.

Sekiro™: Shadows Die Twice

Play as the Shinobi known as Wolf in Sekiro™: Shadows Die Twice, as they attempt to take revenge on the samurai clan who imprisoned him and his lord. Anybody looking for a challenge can expect just that from this game as it’s praised for its challenging gameplay, alongside beautiful art and a fleshed out world.
