Valve has revealed that the Steam Winter Sale 2018 begins very shortly. Players will be able to browse through hundreds, if not thousands, of titles that will be on sale for a limited time. In addition, The Steam Awards 2018 nominees have been announced. Nominees for Game of the Year include some legitimate surprises like PUBG and more.

The Steam Winter Sale 2018 will run for a good bit of time. Players will be able to enjoy the huge discounts on numerous games starting tomorrow, December 20, through Thursday, January 3, 2019. That is a decent amount of time to cash in on those holiday gifts and get some awesome games.
