Steam Winter Sale Offers Up Trading Cards For Browsing Your Recommendations
Valve has kicked off the Steam Winter Sale, with daily deals through January 4. While you won’t find flash deals or community votes, you can earn three trading cards every day just by browsing your discovery queue.
In order to earn your cards, just go through your discovery queue three times (it will have different games each time). You need to be level five to earn them, but if you hit that during the sale, you'll be granted your cards retroactively.
Included in the sale are recent titles like Telltale’s Game of Thrones, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and Sword Coast Legends. This year also marks the introduction of the first Steam sale comic, called Gingerbread Jake In: North Pole Noir.”
A new page of the comic will be made available each day. You can check out all of the deals on Steam.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
