Steam Halloween Sales

As October draws to a close, Halloween is just around the corner, bringing with it spooky sales on Steam. This year, you can find some incredible deals on games for less than ₹1500. Don't miss out on the opportunity to grab these games before they vanish like ghosts. Some deals are already live, while others are expected to be similar to last year's discounts.

1. Resident Evil Franchise

Resident Evil has been a household name since its inception in 1996. The franchise has recently started remaking its classic titles with enhanced graphics and gameplay. While the newly released Resident Evil 8 might not see a significant price reduction, Resident Evil 2 Remake and Resident Evil 3 Remake are expected to be heavily discounted during the Steam Halloween sales. Both games were launched in 2019 and 2020, respectively, and have been widely praised as excellent horror shooter titles. Keep an eye out for other titles in the franchise as well.

2. Phasmophobia

Despite still being in early access, Phasmophobia has received overwhelming positive reviews on Steam. This game puts players in the shoes of a Ghost Hunter, allowing them to play solo or with up to four players in co-op mode. One of the standout features of Phasmophobia is its innovative use of microphones, which adds a new level of immersion to the gameplay. While the game usually retails for ₹439, you can expect a discount during the sales, bringing the price down to around ₹350.

3. Alan Wake

Released in 2010 for Xbox 360 and 2012 for PC, Alan Wake offers a cinematic take on the horror genre. Players assume the role of Alan Wake, a writer who witnesses his own writing come to life in twisted ways. As a dark presence lurks in the small town of Bright Falls, Alan must unravel its mysteries and save his loved one. While the game typically sells for ₹459, you can expect a reduced price of around ₹200 during the sales.

4. Alien Isolation

Considered one of the best first-person survival horror games, Alien Isolation guarantees an intense experience. Playing as Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Ellen Ripley from the Alien movie franchise, players must evade the relentless and adaptable Xenomorph. The game's AI implementation is exceptional, making it essential to play with the lights off and a headset for maximum immersion. Alien Isolation typically costs ₹849, but during the sales, it could be available for around ₹200.

5. Outlast and Outlast 2

Outlast and Outlast 2 are highly acclaimed first-person survival horror games. Instead of providing players with offensive capabilities, these games strip away their power, leaving them with only a camcorder to document the horrors they encounter. In the first game, players must survive the terrors of Mount Massive Asylum, while the sequel takes them on a new terrifying journey. The bundle of both games is priced at ₹822, and you can expect further discounts during the sales.
