We’ve already rounded up the best deals in the 2024 Steam Autumn sale, but Steam isn’t the only place slicing game prices down to ridiculously low numbers right now. Many a game store is running a Black Friday sale on Steam codes, meaning you can still get a code to add a game to your Steam library while spending even less than the asking price on Steam itself. This kind of competitive deal shopping is what Black Friday’s all about.
None of the competing PC game stores can hold a candle to Steam for volume or name recognition, so most of them have to find other ways to stand out. Bundles, flash sales, a focus on classic games, maybe more competitive regional pricing; whatever the technique, you can save a good bit by shopping around.
Or just by reading this article, since we’ve already done the shopping around for you. Here are the best Black Friday game Steam key deals we’ve found at legitimate stores (don’t worry, there’s no sketchy too-good-to-be-true aftermarket stuff here). Keep in mind a few of the deals won’t actually be for games you can activate on Steam; GOG, for instance, has its own launcher, but also offers games that are completely DRM-free, so you don’t even need a launcher to play them. And while the prices are listed in USD, most or all of these deals should be available in other regions, too, at comparable discounts.
