Shoppers rush to buy the Steam Deck on sale for the first time ever

STEAM Deck is on sale for the first time ever as part of Steam’s Spring Sale.

Steam holds a seasonal sale four times a year with huge discounts on big-name games.

Even though Spring has just arrived, Steam’s Spring Sale is now on and will run until March 23, 2023.

The biggest surprise of the sale is that the Steam Deck has gone on discount after its release last year.

The Steam Deck is a powerful handheld console that doubles up as a portable PC.

Demand was incredibly high when the console first released, and gamers had to sign up to a waitlist in order to purchase one.

Now the Steam Deck is widely available, and you can even buy one at 10% off.

This might not sound like a huge discount, but as the best version usually costs £569, shoppers will get a massive £57 reduction.

Even the cheaper model offers a sizeable amount to save. Usually £349, it is on sale for £314.

As with all seasonal sales, there are also a huge number of games available at massively discounted prices.

The sale includes games with up to 90% off, so you can build a library of games for pennies.

There are also a huge number of games that have been released recently that are already discounted by up to 50%.

One of the standouts from last year, Marvel Midnight Suns, is already 50% off, from £50 to £25.

Stray also won multiple gaming awards and is now just £20.

There are also a number of popular classic games with huge discounts. Nier Automata is now just £15.

All of these savings are only available for a short amount of time until the next seasonal sale.
