Valve has officially announced the annual Steam Winter Sale, which will start on December 18, 2025, and last until January 5, 2026. For almost three weeks, gamers from all over the world will be able to replenish their libraries with hundreds of games – from big hits to indie projects – with discounts that sometimes reach 95%. The Winter Sale is traditionally considered one of the most profitable events of the year for video game fans, so this is a great opportunity to buy what you want at the lowest price.

Valve has also published an official trailer for the winter sale, showing some of the projects that will receive holiday discounts. The video showed both well-known hits and expected new releases that attracted special attention from the community.

Among the games featured in the trailer are Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon, Borderlands 4, Dune: Awakening, Dying Light: The Beast, The Last of Us Part II Remastered, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Hades II, and ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN.

In addition to them, the winter sale will also offer discounts on many other popular titles from previous years, including large-scale RPGs, story-driven action games, cooperative projects, and indie hits. Thus, Steam’s winter sale promises to be a great opportunity for both those who have been waiting for a bargain price on major releases and players who want to discover new game worlds for minimal money.

So, winter is not only about tangerines and blankets, but also about official permission to spend your salary on games to the best of your ability. Steam’s Winter Sale proves once again that buying more than you can use is not a weakness, but a tradition. So prepare your wish lists, free up disk space, and don’t be surprised if the New Year holidays fly by – somewhere between a 95% discount and the phrase “one more game and then go to bed”… 😉
