Valve’s final sale of 2025 is here. The Steam Winter Sale brings massive discounts and the final showdown for the Steam Awards.
The wait is over for PC gamers looking to expand their backlogs. The Steam Winter Sale has officially begun, marking the platform’s last major seasonal event of the year. From now until January 5th at 10 a.m. PT, players can find deep discounts on “all kinds of games across the entire Steam Store.”
Whether you are looking for the year’s biggest AAA blockbusters or hidden indie gems, the Winter Sale is traditionally one of the best times to pick up titles at their lowest prices of the year.
Cast Your Vote in The Steam Awards
Alongside the deals, the community-driven Steam Awards have entered their final phase. During the Autumn Sale, millions of users nominated their favorite games of 2025. The finalists have been selected across 11 categories, and it is up to the players to crown the winners.
Voting is open now, but don’t wait until the end of the sale to make your voice heard. Voting for the Steam Awards closes on January 3rd at 10:00 a.m. Pacific, two days before the sale itself ends. Winners will likely be announced shortly after voting concludes.
