The Steam Summer Sale has once again returned offering a deluge of discounts for gamers after a deal. For virtual reality (VR) fans, there’s no shortage of offers available whether you’re after a big AAA title like Half-Life: Alyx or one of the numerous indie videogames for less than £10 GBP.
Steam’s Summer Sale runs until 9th July, in which time you can make use of hundreds of offers, plus if any of them are over £30 you’ll be able to save a further £5 with the discount applied at the checkout.

As per usual in Steam sales, the platform likes to include an additional sales feature to encourage gamers to buy more titles through various rewards. This time its the Points Shop, so when you buy a videogame, DLC, hardware, application, soundtrack, or an in-game item you’ll earn yourself points – 124 points for every £1.00 you spend to be exact. These can then be redeemed for animated avatars, frames, backgrounds, badges and chat items. The big difference with the Points Store is that it’s permanent.
So go take a look and see what catches your eye. For all the latest VR software and hardware deals, keep reading VRFocus.
Steam Summer Sale 2020 Now Live Discounting Half-Life: Alyx, The Walking Dead, And Hundreds More
The Steam Summer Sale for 2020 is now live until July 9th at 10PM PT with discounts across the entire storefront on thousands of games including some of the very best VR titles like Half-Life: Alyx and The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners.
Every year Valve has an enormous Steam Summer Sale with deep discounts on popular games and often even new releases. You can browse the sales and categories on the main landing page. If you’ve been waiting to pull the trigger on a pricey VR game until it gets a bit of a discount, or want to try and grab a bunch of games you may have missed for lower prices, now is the time to act. The Steam Summer Sale will last until 10PM PT on July 9th.
Valve also has some mini-game or meta-level feature alongside each Steam Summer Sale usually as well. This time, it’s Steam Points. Various things on Steam can earn you points, such as buying games or contributing to communities. The conversion rate is 100 points for every $1.00 you spend. You can then spend points on animated avatars, frames, profile backgrounds, badges, and chat emotes, or even for items from games you already, that you get to keep forever.
What’s unique about this feature though is that it’s not just tied to the Steam Summer sale — the Points Shop is now a permanent feature on Steam. However, unlike trading cards and some in-game items, you cannot sell or trade anything purchased in the Points Shop.
Here are some of the stand out best quality and value deals we’ve identified in the Steam Summer Sale, but it’s worth browsing the entire VR category listing for more. You can see every discounted VR game on Steam right here (that’s over 1,000 results in total!) and the official VR landing page is right here.
