The Steam Summer Sale has started! Here are the most important things to know and do (with focus on free stuff!):
Daily trading card (14x)
- Link: https://store.steampowered.com/explore
- You can get 1 of them per day (total of 14 free cards if you get 1 every day - resets daily at 17:00 UTC) by using the Explore feature and earning 1 for each time you finish a discovery queue.
- If you install the SteamDB browser extension, you can instantly complete a discovery queue by clicking on auto-discover: https://steamdb.info/extension/
You can also get these cards by:
- Trading with friends
- Drops from purchasing on the Steam Store. (Approximately 1 card every $10 spent on the Store)
- Crafting badges from other games. 1 badge crafted will give you 1 summer sale card
- Purchasing them directly from the Community Market https://steamcommunity.com/market/
Daily chat sticker (8x)
Visit any sale category to claim your sticker, like this page: https://store.steampowered.com/greatondeck. Unsure how to claim it exactly, I can't find it.
Points
- You can spend 1000 points for the seasonal badge in the Steam point shop, giving you 100xp. Spending 1000 again will level it up, giving you another 100xp. You can also spend it on other things of course, but those won't give you xp.
- 100 points can be earned for every 1$ you spend, you might already have some points from past purchases. You can spend 300 of those points by awarding people's contents, such as reviews, workshop mods, screenshots and such, earning you a badge upon giving the first award, with 10xp for every award you give.
Other things to note
- All prices will remain the same throughout the entire sale.
- Be sure to consult 3rd party stores for steam keys, as Steam itself might not always have the cheapest prices.
Enjoy the sale and your free cards & badge!
