When do games go on sale on Steam?
Random sales can pop up anytime, but the big ones to mark on your calendar are the Summer and Winter Sales. They're like the Black Friday of gaming.

Honestly, just add games to your wishlist. Steam will email you when they're on sale. It's like setting a mouse trap for deals.
Steam sales are kinda like magical gaming holidays that happen throughout the year. There are big ones like the Summer Sale and the Winter Sale where tons of games get massive discounts. These usually happen in late June for the Summer Sale and mid-December for the Winter Sale. But don't forget about the smaller sales, like the Halloween, Autumn, and Spring Sales! Keep an eye out for publisher weekends too, where specific developers slash prices on their entire catalog.
Pro tip: Steam sales follow a pattern but there's always that surprise sale nobody expected. Summer and Winter are the big ones, but always keep an eye out for those mid-week madness deals and weekend specials!
