There's So Many Great Game Sales Going On Right Now!
Summer has traditionally been one of the best times of year to find great deals on PC games. Usually this has come from Steam's famous summer sales, but we still have a little over a month until those sales even start. With Epic Games having some pretty good sales as well as Humble Bundle (along with a few good Steam sales) going on right now, it's not a bad time to be a PC gamer.
First up, we have to start with the Epic Game sales. I've already covered previously their awesome free weekly games including the newest addition, GTA V: Premium Edition, but there's tons of other great games that, while they still cost some money, are heavily discounted right now. If I had to guess, I'd say that they're trying to get gamers' money before the Steam Summer Sale is set to kick off on June 25th. Either way, when there's price competition... everyone wins.
For the next few weeks, Epic has some really good sales going on. Better yet, after every single purchase that's $14.99 or up (even if that's the sale price), you'll get a free $10 coupon that can then further be used towards more games that are on sale for some even bigger savings. Just by getting the free weekly game, it'll give you a $10 coupon so it's a nice start towards saving money on great games.
I pointed out to some friends that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was originally listed for sale for $14.99 meaning that with the coupon you could pick it up for just $4.99 plus tax, but I guess in the last day or so they purposefully knocked down the price by one cent to $14.98 meaning that you can't use the $10 coupon with it. I love Epic for a lot of things, but seriously fuck them for that one lol.
I'm going to list some of the notable games that are on sale right now in no particular order. I'll be including it's sale price as well as the price after applying the $10 coupon since everyone will start with a $10 coupon by getting GTA V for free and then get more $10 coupons with every additional game purchase. If you're wondering... no... they can't be stacked to get totally free games either lol.
This of course won't be a complete list as you can check that out for yourself over on the Epic Games Store.
Let's look at some great games that are on sale right now with their sale price.
Control - $29.99 ($19.99 with coupon)
Borderlands 3 - $29.99 ($19.99 with coupon)
Red Dead Redemption 2 - $47.99 ($37.99 with coupon)
Metro Exodus $19.99 ($9.99 with coupon)
Assassin's Creed: Origins - $14.99 ($4.99 with coupon)
Rainbow Six: Siege - $7.99 (Not eligible for discount with coupon)
Far Cry: New Dawn - $15.99 ($5.99 with coupon)
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands - $19.99 ($9.99 with coupon)
Alan Wake - $1.49 (Not eligible for discount with coupon)
Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair - $17.99 ($7.99 with coupon)
Rayman Legends - $7.49 (Not eligible for discount with coupon)
As you can see, there's a ton of great game sales going on right now over on the Epic Games Store. This list here is only a fraction of the games that they currently have on sale as listing all of them would have taken me the rest of the day to do so lol. So if you wanna save some money and don't want to wait to see what Steam may or may not have to offer next month, it's not a bad time to pick up some great games. With the sale that's going on and with $10 coupons that you'll get with every purchase of every game or add-on that you get that's $14.99 or up (sale price and before coupon is applied), you can get some really incredible deals to be honest. Don't just take my word for it, check it out yourself!
Lastly, we turn to the beloved Humble Bundle.
This week they have a couple great games bundles to check out. First, they have a "Play with friends" bundle which includes some indie and lesser-known games to well... play with your friends lol.
The real highlight this week of Humble Bundle though is their Humble Indie Bundle 21 - 10 Year Anniversary. This one has just over a week left and the final few games in the bundle hasn't even been revealed yet. This bundle includes popular indie games like Hotline Miami, Beat Cop, Starbound, and several others. I'm expecting the final few games that'll be revealed for it in a couple days should be pretty great considering this is their 10th anniversary bundle.
As always, you'll get to choose how much you pay and choose how much money goes towards the developers, Humble Bundle, and of course charity.
All in all, it's an awesome time to be a PC gamer right now!
