Major Sales: When to Grab the Biggest Discounts

Every gamer knows that certain times of year bring legendary discounts. Mark these dates on your calendar:

• Winter & Holiday Sales (December) — Snuggle up and snag holiday steals! Winter sales slash prices on everything from AAA hits to indie gems — perfect for gifting or treating yourself.

• Summer Sales (June–July) — Escape the heat with sizzling game deals. Summer is a prime time to stock up for long gaming nights. (Pro tip: check our tips on buying digital gift cards to save even more during summer sales!)

• Black Friday & Cyber Monday (late November) — It’s not just TVs and gadgets: these mega retail events bring some of the year’s best game deals too. Be ready to pounce!

Platform-Specific Deals: Save on Your Favourite Systems

• Steam — The king of PC deals. Steam runs major sales throughout the year: Summer, Winter, Lunar New Year, Autumn — you name it. Plus, savvy gamers know you can sometimes save more by buying through regional stores (check out our quick guide to Steam Argentina and Turkey tricks!).

• PlayStation Store — Frequent sales, surprise flash discounts, and deals on PlayStation Plus make it easy to grab PS games on a budget.

• Xbox Store — Just like PlayStation, Xbox players can grab game and DLC discounts year-round — plus extra perks for Game Pass Core and Ultimate subscribers.

• Nintendo eShop — Nintendo Switch fans, don’t worry: the eShop regularly offers deals, especially around big holidays and seasonal events.

Stay Ahead of the Game: How to Keep Up with Deals

✔ Follow Game News & Social Media — Gaming sites and socials love to break sale news first. Follow your favourites (and us at Keydom Games!) for instant updates.

✔ Subscribe to Newsletters — Platforms and stores send exclusive sale alerts to email subscribers — giving you a head start.

✔ Use Wishlists & Price Trackers — Add your must-haves to wishlists and let the platform notify you when prices drop. Or use price tracking tools to keep an eye on multiple stores at once.

✔ Watch Publishers & Resellers — Some publishers run their own discounts, so check their sites too. And explore trusted key resellers (like us!) for flash sales and special promos.

Shop Smart: How to Buy Game Keys Safely

Low prices are great — but security matters too. Here’s how to keep your money safe while bargain-hunting:

• Buy from Trusted Sellers — Always choose reputable stores with good reviews. Suspiciously low prices on sketchy sites can cost more in the long run.

• Check Reviews — Look for genuine customer feedback on trusted review platforms.

• Use Secure Payment Methods — Stick to secure options like PayPal, or top up your account using official gift cards (Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo — we’ve got you covered).

• Look for HTTPS — Always shop on sites with a secure connection (the padlock icon in your browser).

Stop Overpaying — Play More!

Smart gamers know how to stretch their budget without sacrificing their wishlists. By following these tips and staying vigilant, you’ll never pay full price if you don’t have to — and your game library will thank you for it.
