As we're in the latter half of the year, quite a few brand new, 2026 games are on sale in Steam's latest seasonal discount party, the Autumn Sale.
Here are nine standouts we spotted:
Resident Evil Requiem
$48.99 (was $69.99) If $70 was too rich for your blood when Capcom's latest survival horror adventure launched back in February, you can now pick it up for under $50. (Steam)
Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight
$48.99 (was $69.99) The new Lego Batman game received some high praise from Jody earlier this year: "It's the most Arkham game since the last Arkham game." (Steam)
007 First Light
$48.99 (was $69.99) Another $70 game that's dropped below $50. Josh didn't find Hitman developer IO Interactive's foray into the Bond world super inspiring, but the Steam reviewers are largely happy with it. (Steam)
Big Walk
$15.99 (was $19.99) Grab some friends (at least one but up to 12 if you've got 'em) and enjoy a tranquil but challenging world full of puzzles. One of the most cooperative co-op games you'll find, and it's nice to see it on sale less than two months after it launched. (Steam )
Stick it to the Stickman
$5.99 (was $11.99) This one just released in September. I played it a bit and it's fun! You work your way up an office tower "firing" other employees with one-button combos. (Steam)
Endless Legend 2
$24.99 (was $49.99) This strategy game has been in early access, but only just hit 1.0 and is "a magnificent example of why Amplitude is so loved by 4X fans," we said in our review. (Steam)
Marathon
$23.99 (was $39.99) This discount is liable to result in as much social media dunking as it does buying, but Marathon's a great game, regardless of Bungie's struggles. (Steam)
Solasta 2
$31.48 (was $62.98) This turn-based RPG is still in early access, but Jody had positive things to say back in March, with the caveat that it's currently best for people "who restart every CRPG a couple of times." (Steam )
Xenonauts 2
$19.99 (was $39.99) An X-COM-like tactics game (the original X-COMs, that is) that went 1.0 this year to a glowing review from us: "Some old-school alien butt kicking." (Steam)
There are lots more great games on sale at the moment: SteamDB's sales section is the best way we've found to sort through the on-sale games and look for gems.
