Steam Lunar New Year Sale Is Live With PC Discounts And Bonuses

Valve has begun its Lunar New Year sale on Steam, offering good deals on a range of PC games--including a spotlight on games from Chinese developers. The store is also offering a discount on any overall purchase, and tokens that can be traded for special rewards.

The deals include discounts on Far Cry 5 ($15), Nioh: Complete Edition ($25), Sniper Elite 4 ($12), and Life is Strange 2 ($4), among many others. Steam also made two special categories. The first, games by Chinese developers, includes Icey ($8) and Three Kingdoms: The Last Warlord ($8). A separate local co-op category highlights Human Fall Flat ($7), Overcooked 2 ($19), and Helldivers ($10).

Steam is offering a $5 discount on your first purchase of $30 or more. It's also giving away a free "red envelope" with rewards inside, and you can get tokens for your purchases. You'll get 100 tokens for every $1 you spend, or 111 tokens for $1 in gifts for other users. Then you can trade those tokens in at the reward center for extra prizes.

Some rewards include an extra $5 discount (15,000 tokens), a golden profile (4,000 tokens), and various profile backgrounds (1,000 tokens). Plus you can pick up a bunch of pig-themed chat emoticons, all for 100 tokens apiece. There are only a dozen emotes, so spending just $12 is enough to get the whole set.

The sale ends on February 11 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM PT, so pig out on deals while you still can.
