If you’re a PC gamer, Steam is your best friend. Valve changed how the best PC games were bought and played when it created this platform and we’ve never looked back. Others like Epic and Ubisoft have tried to create their own launchers, but the hardcore gamers will never abandon Steam. It isn’t just for convenience, either. Steam sales offer the best deals in the entire industry, with massive games regularly seeing discounts of 50%, 60%, 70% off or more. Most of us hold off on buying upcoming PC games we’re excited about in hopes that the price will be slashed in an upcoming Steam sale. But how long will you need to wait until the next sale? Steam sales come regularly, but if you’re looking to save up for the next one, here’s how long you have.

Now that the Steam Summer sale is over, our next major deal event will be the Autumn Sale. As the leaves start to turn and the weather cools off, we will have one solid week of sales starting on September 29 and wrapping up on October 6. We have no idea what games will be discounted as of now, but we always make sure to find all the best deals and highlight them for you.

Steam sales do pop up all the time between the major seasonal ones, but the four big sales are always the Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter sales, so your best bet at a great deal is to wait for these events.

This is a fully open world take, with townsfolk on routines who respond to what you do, even when you think no one’s watching. It’s still chasing that mix of heroics, petty crime, and dry British humor, only with modern action RPG muscle.
