Official info.
Steam is becoming more and more popular. Many people want to buy games at relatively low prices. Typically, Steam sales took place every year in October, towards the end of that month. This year will be the same.
I remember exactly that last year (2015) the sale was somewhere at the end of October. But this most likely was not a seasonal sale, but related to the Halloween holiday. And the games that were sold were only all sorts of scary ones, about old wives, etc.
Steam usually doesn't do seasonal sales; Steam sales are usually tied to a holiday rather than a season.
Perhaps in the fall there will be sales in October, timed to coincide with Halloween.

Today - the twenty-first of October 2016 - it became known for sure that sales will begin at the end of the month, namely on October 28. There is an opinion that they want to connect the sales with Halloween, which is why the name of the sale is Halloween.
The list of games for the autumn sale is promised to be quite decent, but we will find out the prices closer to the date.
Pay attention to the picture. The event is expected to last until November 1, 2016. I think this is great news for true gamers.

The Steam Fall Sale will take place a few days before Halloween on October 28, 2016. On this day, everyone who needs to buy the most popular new products gaming industry, big discounts from 20 to 90% will be provided. This is a good day for fans of games and entertainment, since on Steam this does not happen as often as we would like, and from October 28th everyone will have a chance to enjoy games until the next one winter sale which will begin in December.
There are two sales coming up on Steam at the end of this month. It's Halloween and Black Friday. The Halloween sale will be on October 28, 2016 and will last until the end of November. Then the second sale starts immediately - Black Friday, which will last until the beginning of December. You can purchase all sorts of gifts for subsequent resale at competitive prices. Discounts will range from 10 to 90%. By the way, then there’s also a New Year’s sale coming up. There will be more than 3,700 games for sale.
You don’t have to wait for sales and buy games with discounts now. There is a program called EgoSteam, which finds where to buy keys for Steam at prices similar to these sales.
The autumn sale on Steam is in its final hours (ends on November 29 at 22:00 Moscow time), and we decided to sum up the interim results of this celebration of virtual life. We did this in the now fashionable infographic style.
And our modest conclusions:
- More than half of the games included in the Fall Sale are less than three years old. Moreover, the younger the game, the more likely it is to be included in the sale. It would seem nonsense, but...
- The size of the discount has an inverse relationship with the “youth” of the game. Newer game, less discount. The fact is quite obvious. We can conclude that the publishers who released the game shortly before the Autumn Sale participate in it mostly symbolically and only for the sake of participation, and do not go to great lengths just to sell the goods.
- For 1000 rubles you can buy 120 games with 80+% discounts and an average price of 7 (!) rubles. Remember this when buying random keys (if there are those who still buy them) in the hope of getting them for 60 rubles Watch Dogs 2.
- The most player-friendly publisher is Square Enix, and they have a lower base price for games and more discounts. And the prize in the “Most Greedy” publisher category goes to Bethesda. This is also for Skyrim. Special Edition.
- Finally, the average temperature in the room throughout the sale varies little; for the second year in a row it is at the level of 60%, which is quite a decent result.
Some explanations for the infographic
1. Share by game type
We agree, the types or genres are quite strange, but that’s how it divides Steam games. Divide them into RPGs, shooters, racing, etc. failed because the groups are very small. For example, there are only 280 games participating in the sale with the “shooter” tag, and 678 “RPG”, with 14 thousand games at a discount there is no point in comparing.
2. Dependence of the discount and the game release date
All games participating in the Autumn Sale were divided into 4 groups according to the time elapsed from their release to the sale. After that, in each group we looked at the distribution of games by discount size and got the results shown in the picture. Initially there were 5 groups, not 4, “more than 12 months” was divided into “12-24 months” and “more than 24 months”, but the distribution in them was almost the same, so these two groups were combined into one.
3. The share of games on sale where the price is lower than on Steam
17% of all games participating in the Fall Sale (13,846) can be found at lower prices in stores other than Steam, even with such discounts.
4. Is CD Projekt Red almost the greediest?
Not really. Other publishers have 30+ games on Steam, but the Poles have only 7 and all are relatively new. Those. they are very much facing the players.
