The Steam Summer Sale is now live

Those who have been following the leaks over the past few days probably won't be surprised by this news, but the Steam Summer Sale has officially kicked off.

What just happened? There are few events PC gamers look forward to more than Steam's annual Summer Sales.

For those of you who want to fearless it, you'll find that the theme of this year's Summer Sale is Grand Prix.

Considering how a lot of these games were received with so much praise, it's as good as time as any to get your hands on these.

Nearly every game available in the online store is discounted. To participate in the Grand Prix, you'll need to choose from among five racing teams: tortoise, hare, cockatiel, pig and corgi.

In terms of the actual discounts on offer right now, some of the big names include Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Devil May Cry 5, and Life Is Strange 2. Your meter's capacity is set at 100 points each day, and you get an additional 100 points for every dollar you spend. Here is the low down on the event, courtesy of Valve. And if you're part of the first, second and third place teams for the day, you'll have the chance to receive the top item on your wishlist. The more you aid your team, the more Grand Prix tokens you'll earn - these can be spent at the Pit Stop for rewards like chat emoticons, profile backgrounds, and "more".

The Steam Summer Sale runs from today, Tuesday the 25th of June, until Tuesday the 9th of July, 2019.
