Steam's turn-based RPG sale slashes prices on some of my favorite games ever, and unfortunately for my wallet, great games I haven't played too

Dragon Quest 11, XCOM 2, and Marvel's Midnight Suns are among many heavily discounted games in Steam's turn-based RPG sale. Those are some of my favorite turn-based games ever, but there are also a ton of other great (and more recent) games on sale that I haven't played and which are currently threatening me and my poor wallet.

I've heard nothing but good things about retro-styled JRPGs Octopath Traveler 2 and Sea of Stars, and they're 40% and 30% off, respectively, for the limited-time sale. This year's strategy hit Tactical Breach Wizards is another I haven't gotten around to playing, although it has a more modest discount of 10% in the sale. Many of my colleagues have been smitten with the stupidly cute open-world RPG Cassette Beasts, and that's been discounted by 40%.

Y'know what, I'll just list my highlights from the Steam Turn-Based RPG Fest instead of rambling on any further:

  • Dragon Quest 11: Echoes of an Elusive Age Definitive Edition | $39.99 $19.99
  • Tactical Breach Wizards | $19.99 $17.99
  • Sea of Stars | $34.99 $24.49
  • Skald: Against the Black Priory | $14.99 $11.24
  • XCOM 2 | $59.99 $2.99
  • Cassette Beasts | $19.99 $11.99
  • Octopath Traveler 2 | $59.99 $35.99
  • Darkest Dungeon | $24.99 $3.74
  • Marvel's Midnight Suns | $59.99 $14.99
  • Triangle Strategy | $59.99 $23.99
  • Into the Breach | $14.99 $7.49

These are obviously just a few selections from a much larger sale, but I spent a good while scrolling through the full list of discounted games and I reckon these are some of the best deals. I mean, c'mon, XCOM 2 for $3 is an absolute steal, and if by some divine fluke you still haven't given that one a try, now's your time to right that wrong.

Otherwise, have a looksie through our list of the best PC games to play right now.

Staff Writer

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
