Steam’s Cyberpunk Fest means big savings on games about high-tech lowlifes
What counts as cyberpunk anyway? Easy, it’s whatever games are currently tagged as “cyberpunk” on Steam and therefore part of the Steam Cyberpunk Fest, a sale running until 10 am on August 10 with the baffling tagline: “They say never look back. Cyberpunk says ALWAYS be in the future. Think about it.”
Whatever that means, what’s important is the discounts that will help us fill our backlog with even more games about cyborgs and hackers and sticking it to the man. Here are some of the highlights.
