Black Friday has kicked off to the usual high furor of activity. Valve started their Steam Autumn Sale on Nov. 22 with a plethora of new deals for PC gamers. People have been thronging stores and online retailers to grab everything they love, at slashed prices.

Every year, PC gamers wait with bated breath for the annual Steam’s Autumn Sale. The company has placed a whipping 6,000+ titles on sale for this year’s deals. The sale will end Tuesday, Nov. 28 at 1 p.m. EST. Steam also announced an up to 90 percent off on Steam Link and other Steam hardware too.

The deals keep changing every day and the homepage of the website contains a list of all daily and top deals.

Some of the best deals on the front page at the moment include a 50 percent off on “The Evil Within 2,” which puts it at $29.99 from $59.99 and “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition” at $19.99 after a 60 percent off on the original $49.99. The sale also includes a mouthwatering 40 percent off on Monolith’s “Middle-earth: Shadow of War,” which now costs $35.99 with the original price being $59.99.
