The Steam Autumn Sale 2025 is almost here, and PC gamers worldwide are counting down the final hours before one of Valve’s biggest discount events of the year. The sale promises major savings across thousands of titles, from indie hits to blockbuster franchises, giving players plenty of chances to grow their libraries without breaking the bank.

When Does the Steam Autumn Sale Start?

The Steam Autumn Sale officially begins today at 10 AM PT (Pacific Time). Exact times will vary depending on your region: Los Angeles (PT): 10 AM London (BST): 6 PM Berlin (CEST): 7 PM Sydney (AEST): 3 AM (next day) To make things simple, many sites and communities are running countdown timers — but if you’ve missed the clock, that just means the sale has already gone live.


Black Friday is back, and with it comes huge savings on some of the market’s most popular gaming and tech products. We’ll be covering all the best deals in more details over in our deals hub, but if you haven’t got time to read through those, why not see our top picks below.

How Long Does the Sale Last?

The Autumn Sale usually runs for about a week, giving players enough time to browse daily highlights, wishlist discounts, and bundle offers. Don’t wait until the last minute, though; popular games and collections tend to get spotlighted early.

We could expect to see deep cuts on classics, some older or evergreen titles may be discounted up to 90–95% off. Moderate discounts on newer games, recent releases typically see smaller reductions, often around 10–20%, though bundle packs or publisher deals sometimes sweeten the pot.

Expect horror games, survival titles, and big RPGs to headline the sale, aligning with the holiday season. Why the Autumn Sale Matters While not as massive as the Summer or Winter Steam sales, the Autumn Sale is perfectly timed for players looking to snag games ahead of the holidays, or before the big end-of-year Winter Sale hits.

It’s also a chance to pick up must-play titles at steep discounts before award season puts them back in the spotlight. So, whether you’ve had your eye on a major franchise or want to stock up on indie gems, today’s Steam Autumn Sale is your chance to grab them for a fraction of the price.
