Planning ahead for spendingSteam Sales and Fests are an opportune moment for PC owners to fill up their gaming backlog. And Valve is taking a little bit of the guesswork and speculation out of the Steam Sale schedule for 2023.
In a blog (https://store.steampowered.com/news/group/4145017/view/3645136358931000680), Valve outlines the schedule for 2023 in terms of Steam Sales and Fests. The former is self-explanatory, as Steam Sales entail big, sweeping discounts throughout Valve's digital storefront, usually with some deep cuts into price tags. Fests are themed celebrations that do usually have discounts, but also bring in some thematic celebration or even a slew of new demos (https://www.destructoid.com/steam-next-fest-2023-demos-to-try-roundup-pc/) for upcoming games. From genre-focused celebrations to the increasingly popular Next Fest demo onslaught, these Steam Festivals are fun spotlights into the ever-growing Steam catalog.
Whether it's the big seasonal sales or a collection of what's to come from smaller developers, this schedule should at least help out in knowing what's on the way. Here's the full 2023 lineup.
