Top 10 Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

An absolute gem of an adventure and the recipient of a stellar 5/5 score here on Twinfinite, Ni No Kuni II is a must-play for any JRPG fan. It’s about to become even more must-play, with the Steam Summer Sale bumping 40% off the usual price of the standard edition, and 30% off the Prince’s Edition, which comes complete with the season pass and equipment package.

You know whose edition it really is? Yours. So go and scoop it up. Before it’s claimed by Ted. Hate that guy.

Fallout

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

Fallout 76 lies on the horizon (have you preordered your Power Armor edition yet?), so there’s no better time than the present to partake in the previous games that have made this series so universally adored. Especially since almost every single Fallout title is on sale. We were so excited, we couldn’t limit our list to just one – so why should you?

Fallout 1? 75% off. Fallout New Vegas Ultimate? 50% off. Fallout 4? 50% off. Fallout Shelter? Stubbornly full price. But don’t let that smug little Vault Boy deter you, there are so many other offers you won’t stay mad for long.

Darkest Dungeon

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

The experience of Darkest Dungeon is hard to quantify. It’s a game in which your back is constantly against the wall, and the threat of death looms large for every single one of your party members. Imagine a game where characters get so distraught, they can suffer a heart attack right there on the spot. It’s stressful for them, it’s stressful for you, it’s stressful for society – and yet we can’t get enough.

You know what’s a lot less stressful, however? 70% off the base game, or a cool 59% discount on the Ancestral Edition bundle in the Steam Summer Sale. So go forth, be merry, and probably suffer a grim fate! It’s just like real life!

Life is Strange: Before the Storm

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

A compelling narrative. A thrilling drama. And a hella good sale to boot.

This standalone adventure is set three years before the beginning of the original game, and follows the exploits of Chloe and her unlikely friendship with Rachel. Stuff goes down, and we know you’re intrigued.

Even better: Life is Strange: Before the Storm is now 50% off, which drops it below $10 USD. That’s less than a new shirt! Unless it’s a particularly crappy shirt, in which case, it’s no good and you should stay away. You’re better than that.

Nioh: Complete Edition

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

Now that the sequel is waiting in the wings, it’s time to revisit the frantic chaos (and frequent punishment) of Nioh. A game that will challenge your wits and your timing, but not your wallet – because it can be obtained now at a delectable 40% off in the Steam Summer Sale. Your samurai ancestors would be so proud of you. They liked a good deal just as much as anyone, after all.

The Complete Edition also comes equipped with the dragon of the north DLC, the defiant honor campaign, and bloodshed’s end, giving you many more opportunities to die a brutal death. Lucky you!

Rust

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

A game of survival. A game of betrayal. A game of teabagging. We’ve played enough online sessions to know what Rust is all about. If you’re hoping to last another day out in the cruel elements, you’ll want to build yourself a suitable shelter before venturing out to rummage for supplies. Remember: anyone you come across isn’t just a threat to your wellbeing, but potentially a tasty snack. Rumor has it that millennials taste of avocado – yummy!

Now having taken a 75% price cut, this is your chance to delve into the fray and hunt down some tasty competition.

Rocket League

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

The only thing that sounds better than soccer with cars is soccer with cars at an amazing price! And, well, a billion dollars, but we haven’t found that on the Steam Summer Sale so far (though we are cautiously optimistic).

Rocket League is a game that came from humble beginnings to become a sensation. Equally fun to play as it is to watch others compete, both the base game and the game of the year edition can be yours at 50% off. Go forth, kick goals, and enjoy cross-platform gaming with those filthy commoners on the home consoles! It’s much better than actually going anywhere near them, after all. They have cooties.

Left 4 Dead 2

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

We may still be desperately waiting for a new entry in the beloved series, but while we continue counting the days since we last banded together with our buddies to slice up some boomers, you’ll be thrilled to know that Left 4 Dead 2 is a startling 90% off. That’s literally a pinch under $2 USD, you could probably pay it off with the spare change in your wallet. No need to hang onto your pennies for a wishing fountain, because all of your prayers have come true right here.

Just don’t startle the witch. Or my nana. She likes to nap at this hour.

Dark Souls III

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

Word on the grapevine is that you hate yourself. Like, you just want to suffer immensely. Put away that flog, you kinky whelp, because we’ve got just the death sentence for you: it’s Dark Souls III, and it’s now a tantalizing 75% cheaper.

If you’ve never tried out a Dark Souls title, it’s a throwback to the games of your youth, with its excessive difficulty, absence of clear instructions, and a lack of sympathy for your feelings. You want a learning curve? Screw that, we have a learning slope to ascend, so you’d better stop crying and start climbing if you don’t want to end up a bloody pile of goo. Tell Iudex Gundyr we say hi; you’ll be playing with him for quite some time.

Grand Theft Auto V

Best Steam Summer Sale 2018 Deals

If the sales figures are any indication, you may have already purchased Grand Theft Auto V. At over 90 million copies sold, you probably own two copies, in fact. But you know what? It’s on sale again, so why not dip into that well once more and procure yourself a third copy? One for each hand, and another for your nose, just to show how talented you are. Smells like success! And sweat. Mostly sweat, actually.

As part of the summer festivities, GTA V is now 67% more affordable, which seems like an arbitrary number, but there’s probably some kind of reason for that figure. If you figure it out, be sure to fill us in! But maybe buy a fourth copy before you do so. We won’t judge, we’ll just applaud politely.
