Right now, there are more than 6,000 games on sale at Fanatical (opens in new tab), offering discounts of up to 95%. That means you can save a serious amount on some very impressive games, including Elden Ring reduced by 12% (opens in new tab) and the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Complete Edition on sale for $63 (opens in new tab) having been reduced from $140. Just bear in mind that these deals are only available for a limited time, with some lasting just a few hours. Fanatical’s Red Hot Sale includes a huge range of discounted PC games which come with Steam codes, meaning as soon as you make a purchase you can get to downloading the games you’ve just got. While there are plenty of individual games for sale, we recommend taking a look at some of the bundles on offer, as these can help you fill in a hole in your PC games collection without the need to spend a fortunate. For example, the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Complete Bundle gives you all three of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games at a 66% reduction (opens in new tab), meaning you’ll have plenty to keep you going while you wait for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. It’s also worth looking for special editions of games, as these will give you all of a game’s extra content for a lot less than usual. For example, Civilization VI Platinum Edition has 82% off (opens in new tab), cutting the price of the game from $119 to $21. At a time when the best PS5 games can go for $70 and the best Xbox Series X games are hardly cheap either, PC gaming can be a more affordable way to bag yourself a suite of high-quality titles, though we’d also recommend you play them on one of our picks for the best gaming PC or best gaming laptop.
