As the leaves begin to change and the air turns crisp, the gaming community finds itself in the midst of an unexpected seasonal delight: the 2025 Steam Autumn Sale. Traditionally, this sale has graced the end of November, but this year, Valve has chosen to usher in the discounts a bit earlier, starting today, September 29.
Early Discounts and Exciting Offers
This decision to launch the sale ahead of schedule seems to be a strategic move, likely aimed at creating a more distinct separation between the Autumn Sale and the upcoming Winter Sale. In previous years, the proximity of these two major events often left gamers feeling rushed. With the 2025 Autumn Sale now in full swing, players can enjoy a plethora of discounts on thousands of games.
Among the standout offers is a 20% discount on the 256GB LCD Steam Deck, bringing the price down to 9/£279. This deal has been available for a week but will continue throughout the duration of the sale, making it an excellent opportunity for those looking to dive into portable PC gaming.
- Discounts on thousands of games
- 20% off the Steam Deck 256GB LCD unit
- Steam stickers available through the discovery queue
- New items in the Steam Points Shop
While the sale offers a treasure trove of bargains, it is worth noting the absence of the Steam Awards this year. Historically, nominations for these awards have coincided with the Autumn Sale, but this time around, they seem to be missing, perhaps due to the earlier start date. It remains to be seen how Valve will navigate this change in the future.
The 2025 Steam Autumn Sale is set to run until October 6, providing ample time for gamers to explore and take advantage of the exciting deals on offer.
