When is the Next Steam Sale: Social Deduction Fest

With Steam Summer Sale 2026 now being history, it's time for us to look forward to the next sale. Valve has been upping the number of sales that release throughout the year, with fests coming out every so often to give players the opportunity to find targeted deals.

Last year, all of the sales (including the fests and the official seasonal sales) were announced ahead of time. With these announced, players have the opportunity to save ahead of their favourite themes arriving.

Coming next is the Social Deduction Fest, which will show all kinds of games about social deduction. Whether it's single-player experiences, like detective games or GNOSIA, or multiplayer party games like Among Us, this'll be a great time to check out these sorts of games.

While the Steam Summer Sale was a larger event lasting two weeks, the next Social Deduction Fest will be in the opposite direction, being a bit shorter. It launches on the 13th of July, lasting for three days on the 16th of July.
