Valve has just launched Steam’s Summer Sale 2019, called Steam Grand Prix Summer Sale. From today and until July 9th, PC gamers will find a variety of PC games at great discounts. Steam’s Summer Sale 2019 ends on July 9th at 10:00AM PST, and each and every day Steam will have brand new offers/discounts for different games.

During this Sale event, players can team up with friends to complete quests, earn personal rewards, and race to the finish each day of the Summer Sale. Furthermore, the best drivers of this Grand Prix will be awarded their Most Wished For games throughout the event.

Users/drivers from the top three finishers on a given day will be selected at random to receive an item from their Steam Wishlist. The higher the team’s placement, the more drivers that will receive free games!

At the end of the entire Grand Prix, drivers from the top three overall teams will be selected at random to receive up to three games from their Steam Wishlist as well.

Currently Steam is down so we don’t know today’s offers/discounts, however we expect everything to be working properly in a couple of hours (so yeah, there is no reason at all right now to keep pressing F5 on your browser until Steam loads).

UPDATE:

Those interested can find all of the Steam Grand Prix Summer 2019 sales here. There will be 700 games on sale, including Mortal Kombat 11, Yakuza Kiwami, Yakuza 0, Ryse: Son of Rome, Valkyria Chronicles 4, Just Cause 4, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and more.

Steam Grand Prix Summer Sale 2019 has been launched, more than 30.000 games on sale

[The Cockatrice]

Just bought Spellforce 3 and might get Dusk and Amid Evil even tho these 2 are technically not part of the Summer Sale and maybe Call of Cthulhu but it's still kinda pricey... Need to finish Supraland which btw HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to any puzzle/Metroid fans and it's 33% off. Any 10+ hours story focused hidden gems on Steam that I might've missed? https://steamcommunity.com/id/stealthycockatrice/games/?tab=all These are all my games. I'm looking desperately for some really great stories bu

 

[DGrayson]

EDIT: *checks wishlist ... "nevermind, go about your business..."

 

[Bakkus]

The entire Valve library for only 10 dollars? Bought

 

[zeroFiveNine]

Damn it, I saw Dark Souls Remastered for 93% off earlier but they fixed the discount now:

 

[jcage01]

Worst steam summer sale ever? Just look at the discounts.

 

[sol_bad]

I bought the Capcom Beat'emup Collection, will probably buy Megaman X Collection 1 too.
I also want the South Park games and Assassin's Creed Syndicate, it's the only AssCreed game I missing from the original series.
I also bought a few $1 and $3 games in my wishlist.
lol

>none of the Unreal games are on sale

Which Unreal do you like?

 

[brap]

Haven't played any of them.

Haven't played any of them.

They are fun. Especially the older ones.

Do you mean Bjork?

They've been like that the last couple of years after they removed daily and flash deals.

>none of the Unreal games are on sale

On epic game store you can play the newest completely for free.

 

[jcage01]

I am on tortoise don't worry in the end it will win the race.

 

[Hoya Destroyer]

Street Fighter Collection for $30 AUD? Not bad. Bought.

 

[Orta]

Rise of the Tomb Raider for €7 is a ridiculous bargain.

 

[AV]

Picked up Slay The Spire since everyone's been banging on about it this year. Card games not usually my forté but happy to try something new(ish).

 

[shaddam]

>none of the Unreal games are on sale

You can get it on gog. Its often on sale. I'm only missing unreal 2, I know it's not a great game, but

 

[BlackOlivesMatter]

In for Civ 6 gold edition, and Grim Dawn.

 

[sixamp]

I have 101 games on my wish list and most are now under $10 but I can't just can't find the reason to buy any of them .

 

[Heebie Jeebies]

So unless you spend a monumental amount of money, idling for 30 minutes for that game you have hundreds of achievements for is pretty pointless. My capacity=1676 points, my Civ V achievements are worth 65598, and it says that if I use 1676 points, 63922 points will get sent to the abyss lmao.

 

[Domisto]

Team Corgi needs to rename itself Team Whale.

Cockatiel and proud.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

You know what I'm here to preach:

Triangle Service Shmups Collection on Steam

https://store.steampowered.com/app/688140/Tempest_4000/

https://store.steampowered.com/app/377860/Mushihimesama/

https://store.steampowered.com/app/720150/Shikhondo__Soul_Eater/

https://store.steampowered.com/app/250110/Assault_Android_Cactus/

No stinkers included.

 

[jshackles]

Just like DunDunDunpachi , you know what I'm here to preach

All of the above are amazing RPG games that I personally consider to be among my favorites. They all have pretty steep discounts too.

 

[Holammer]

Bagged Slay the Spire, DXBall 2 20th Anniversary Edition, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons, Regalia Of Men and Monarchs. I'm going to buy another 5-6+ more, but there's no hurry.
Regalia in particular looks interesting, but the user score is only 77%.

 

[12Goblins]

Hm, never played witcher 3 or dragons dogma, but my backlog is getting out of control

I also wish they would release dragons crown on steam D:

 

[Senhua]

Making several list of PC Exclusive Strategy games (RTS,TBS,4X,GS,CTG,DBG)

Spoiler

 

[Holammer]

Just get them both. I've made peace with the fact that I'll never be able to clear my backlog in my lifetime, so I instead think of it as my Pokedex... Gotta catch 'em all.
Agreed on a native PC version of Dragon's Crown.

 

[Senhua]

Spoiler: List 2

 

[b0uncyfr0]

Any Indies on the level of Guacamelee and Hollow Knight?

 

[LOLCats]

i dont get the grand prix race thing. What is the point?

 

[Nymphae]

They are fun. Especially the older ones.

Unreal Tournament is incredible and it's a damn shame that the arena FPS genre just isn't big anymore.

 

[Holammer]

Any Indies on the level of Guacamelee and Hollow Knight?

You want Metroidvania? This is the first Touhou based game I ever played and it deserves the 97% user score.

 

[prag16]

Gonna sit this one out I think, though I am tempted by a few things. My backlog is already such that I'll never finish.

 

[Pejo]

You want Metroidvania? This is the first Touhou based game I ever played and it deserves the 97% user score.

I had my eye on the Touhou game, it looks really good. I'm also considering this one:

I'm not buying anything until the weekend, but definite buys so far for me are:

• Disgaea PC
• Dead Rising 1
• Fractured But Hole
• Gato Roboto
• Rain World
• Yoku's Island Express (I just found out about this one recently, looks really cool. Mix between a platformer and pinball)
• Wonder Boy: Dragon's Trap
• Baba Is You
• Katana Zero

Strong maybes are:

• Furi
• Crawl
• NightCry
• Friday the 13th

Question to GAF about a few games I'm unsure of:

• Sonic Mania - Worth it if I only enjoyed the Genesis/32X Sonic games, hated the rest?
• Danganronpa and Zero Time Dilemma - What kind of games are these? VNs? I heard them compared to Ace Attorney games.
• Dragon Quest Heroes - Is getting the second one good enough? I know most Musou games are additive and there's usually little reason to play earlier games in the series, so if the sequel has most of the content in the first game, I might pick it up.

 

[newtypepilot]

This is one of the worst steam sales ever. Not in terms of the "deals". They have been mediocre ever since flash deals were removed, but this event is just plain bad. It's confusing and unrewarding. The rules are needlessly complicated and the chances of you winning any free games are slimmer than winning an actual lottery. Why weren't the teams assigned randomly? Everyone was going to pick corgi when they saw the "middle finger" on their screens.

Clearly they didn't test this at all and were like "hey, sounds cool on paper! Let's just roll it out!"

 

[Meted]

so if you refund a game you keep the points you earn from buying the game. so in theory you could buy a few really expensive games then refund them to get a discount code. not suggesting people do it but it seems like an oversight on steams side

 

[Ichabod]

Is Under Rail any good? I really like Xcom style games but I dont know if I should pull the trigger.

 

[Domisto]

I always find something in these sales regardless. Usually some older and smaller games to muck about with on the cheap. Few things that caught my eye.

 

[JimmyRustler]

Meanwhile the entire Bioshock Collection is 8 bucks on PSN right now. Steam sale has become a joke.

That's not Valve's fault, it's up to the publisher to set the desired discount during sales. The PC version most likely still sells well at 50%, so they don't see a reason to discount it further. But you go ahead and buy it on PSN then, play it like an animal with poor framerates and joypad.

 

[T-Square]

Assetto Corsa or Project Cars 2?

 

[Robot Pants]

How is the PC version of Blood Money?
I hear mixed reviews. Some say they have no problem modding it to run at higher resolutions and framerates. Others say it won't even open or recognize a controller.
I mean for 2 bucks it's worth the gamble. But if it's good, I was just gonna get the whole original trilogy collection (with lame Absolution which I already own) cause it's only 5 bucks.

Where are you seeing this?

 

[Boris The Spider]

Damn it, I saw Dark Souls Remastered for 93% off earlier but they fixed the discount now:

I got this for £3.49 literally 2 mins ago, said I had a special discount for my account but didn't explain why.

50% off because you own Prepare to Die edition already

 

[Bonfires Down]

I'm happy to see so many people recommending 502 Bad Gateway. One of my favorites from the last year.
