Fun Even on a Tight Budget: That’s the Steam Sale

Even if you bought all 11 titles introduced so far, the total would be just 4,306 yen. That works out to about 391 yen per game. At full price, the total would be 44,760 yen, so the difference compared to these sale prices is 40,454 yen. Seeing the numbers laid out like this really drives home just how massive a discount—over 90% off—this is.

Of course, just because they’re cheap doesn’t mean you should buy everything in sight—or else your backlog will just keep growing… That said, at just a few hundred yen each, these are the perfect opportunity to try out titles you’ve “had your eye on for a while but never quite got around to buying.” Even if you’re a bit short on cash, being able to snag 11 games for just over 4,000 yen is a unique perk of a major Steam sale.

Steam’s “Fall Sale 2026” is scheduled to run until 2:00 a.m. Japan Standard Time on October 9, 2026.
