Summary
Steamusers can currently grabDisco Elysiumand four other winners of various Game of the Year awards at some absolutely massive discounts. The offers, which range from 90% to 95% off, are part of the ongoingSteamSummer Sale 2024.
The newest iteration of the annual promotion kicked off on June 27. This is the last of thesix big sales that Steam announced for the first half of 2024.
And while hundreds of games saw their prices drop as part of the promo, some of the ongoing offers still seem a bit more head-turning than others. One particularly attractive wave of deals saw Steam slash down the prices of fourGOTY winnersby at least 90%. The list of these deeply discounted titles comprisesBatman: Arkham Knight,Celeste, Disco Elysium: The Final Cut, andThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. That cream of the crop is completed bySid Meier’s Civilization 6, another GOTY winner that’s presently available at 90% off as part of the same promotion.

In terms of specific accolades,Sid Meier’s Civilization 6andCelestecould be characterized as the least acclaimed of the lot, based on the fact that they “only” won genre-specific GOTY awards. Meanwhile, the rest of these deeply discounted titles have at least one general GOTY honor to their name.Disco ElysiumandThe Witcher 3: Wild Huntare the most celebrated games of the newly discounted group, with both being widely touted as some of the best examples of their respective genres ever made. None of the GOTY deals on offer here include access to complete editions of their games, but those forCelesteandDisco Elysium: The Final Cutcome close, as the only things sold separately from them are their official soundtracks and (inDE’s case) artbook.
Steam Summer Sale 2024 also brought down the price ofBaldur’s Gate 3to its lowest, yet. Specifically, the winner of dozens of 2023 GOTY awards is currently available at $47.99, or 20% off. Other critically acclaimed PC games that are currently up for grabs at immensely low prices includeBorderlands 2,Arma 3,Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands, andAssetto Corsa.
A number ofgenre-defying RPGshave also been treated to some steep discounts as part of the Steam Summer Sale 2024. That list includesDivinity: Original Sin 2,Dragon Age: Origins, andMass Effect, among several other titles.
