Epic Games might like you to believe that Steam's policies don't have everybody's best interests in mind, but you can't deny that its seasonal sales are a boon to mankind.
Valve's digital games distribution platform currently has a Winter Sale underway, putting hundreds if not thousands of games available at a massive discount through January 4, 2024. Now that you've got a lot of time on your hands to play and clear your backlog, this is arguably the best time to add more.
While the selection of sales available at a massive discount should satisfy gamers of all preferences, Soulslike lovers are especially lucky as some of the genre's biggest and best games are available for cheap, starting with Elden Ring.
The reigning most GOTY'd video game ever is currently available for £30/$36. It's a significant price cut from its original $59.99 price tag, with nearly $20 in savings. It's not the lowest price for the genre's frontrunner ever but it's close. If this is your first time dipping into the Soulslike ocean, Steam has you covered.
