So maybe you’ve got a bit more to spend than $2, but not much more, and you need a cheap way to fill out the weekend. No problem: here’s the best bargains you can grab on Steam right now for less than $5.
This list has been updated with more titles to coincide with the end of the Steam sale, which concludes tomorrow.
If you’re really strapped for cash, there’s also a solid list of games going for $2 or less below as well. Most of what you’ll find in that list are shorter indie experiences, so it’s a top way to pick up something unusual and different.

But rather than looking at the highlighted AAA games, there’s plenty of value available for much less. Under $2, in fact.”]
The $5 bracket is where you’ll find a lot more blockbuster experiences. It’s the price range where games like Life is Strange and Don’t Starve thrive, the bar of entry for the original Fallout games, and some unusual retro classics that have been a bit forgotten over the years.
The current Steam sale runs until tomorrow US time, so you’ve still got some time. All games can be found via the Steam client or through the search on the official Steam site here.
