Steam’s big Winter Sale is coming to an end, so we’re collecting some of the best RPGs before the discounts are gone.
The fact that we could almost go out into the fresh air in a t-shirt over New Year’s Eve proves it: Winter can be over quickly! And that applies just as much to the current Steam Winter Sale 2022, which closes its doors in a few days (on 5 January 2023). So we’re gradually approaching the final spurt – and for us that means one thing above all: We’re digging out a few cool offers for you.
Today with role-playing games! You love role-playing games, we love role-playing games – diving into great worlds, raising the stats of our avatar, completing quests, killing monsters, collecting experience points, you know the fun. Including some candidates that have never been reduced as much as they are now. So let’s get started.
Highlight of the Sale: Kingdom Come: Deliverance
(Genre: Open-World Role-Playing Game – Developer: Warhorse – Release: February 13, 2018 – Price & Discount: 7,50 Euro (reduced by 75 percent)
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is almost five years old again – actually, the successor should be unveiled soon. But be that as it may, the best role-playing games age like good wine, and that is exactly what Kingdom Come is. As the young blacksmith Heinrich, you become embroiled in an adventure that turns late medieval Bohemia upside down.Kingdom Come’s greatest strength – similar to Gothic – has always been its atmosphere. You dive deep into the everyday life of the people, visit tens of detailed locations and choose for yourself whether your Henry is a noble warrior or a predatory a… – you know – is.
Kingdom Come has never been so heavily discounted as it is right now. For 7.50 euros you get the basic game, but we recommend buying the Complete Collection with all DLCs for 10 euros, because they expand the story with some nice bonus chapters. More on this in the video above.

Not in the mood for historical medievalism? Then check out the rest of the candidates we’ve picked out for you:
