We’re less than 24 hours from this year’s Steam Game Festival, a week-long event showcasing new and upcoming PC games available on the Steam store. There will be Q&A events with developers, live streams to watch, and hundreds of free demos to play.
The event starts Wednesday, Feb. 3 and runs through Tuesday, Feb. 9. (You can sign up for a reminder on the Steam Game Festival’s official website.)
The festival’s 500 game demos span every genre you can think of, but we won’t know the full lineup until the event begins. However, Valve has released several teaser videos highlighting a small selection of games you’ll be able to try out.
Ten great titles in particular caught our eye in this roundup, and we’ll tell you about them in a minute—but they represent just a tiny fraction of the avalanche of demos dropping during the Steam Festival. If you want more recommendations, watch Steam’s highlight reels featuring the many action, adventure, puzzle, platformer, strategy, RPG, and visual novel titles that will be available, and be sure to check Steam’s app and website throughout the event to find and test out new games.
