Weekend PC Game Deals: Showcase sales, demo festivals, and co-op events

Free Events

It’s time for another demo festival as Valve began its second Steam Next Fest of 2024 earlier this week. There are hundreds of demos from upcoming games to try out, most are from indie developers but a few major publishers are participating too. Head here for more information.

Aside from the horde of demos, standard free events are ongoing through the weekend too. Interestingly, most of them are focused on providing cooperative experiences. Ubisoft’s third-person action RPG The Division 2 as well as the competitive tactical shooter entry Rainbow Six Siege are both having free events right now.

Meanwhile GTFO is for friends looking to get their horror fix together, and Deep Rock Galactic is for those wanting a coop experienced that’s focused more on mining rock and stone surrounded by alien bugs. Lastly, Hell Let Loose is offering 100-battles set in the second world war for everyone this weekend.

Big Deals

The Steam Summer Sale is right around the corner, but keep in mind that discounts that are appearing right now will probably keep those same rates when the big promotion hits. Also, thanks to all the showcases last week, we now know many series with new entries on the way. There are plenty of older entries from those series heralding deep discounts right now if you want to check them out beforehand.

Containing all that and more, check out this weekend’s hand-picked big deals list below:
