The year's PC winter sales are underway. GOG has already kicked off theirs, Steam is getting ready to do so later this week, and the Epic Games Store has 12 days of free games to accompany their deals. Green Man Gaming is also holding its own sale, where it introduces new flash deals every day. These flash deals last 48 hours and feature the games' lowest prices--you won't see them cheaper for the rest of the sale.
The first two flash deals were Red Dead Redemption 2 and Borderlands 3, while the second day includes The Outer Worlds and Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey. Green Man Gaming's keys redeem on different digital storefronts, so be sure to note which one you'll need to redeem yours.
Red Dead Redemption 2 | $42.23 ($60)
Valid until Wednesday, December 18, at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET
Red Dead Redemption 2 redeems on the Rockstar Games Launcher. From GameSpot's Red Dead Redemption 2 review: "Red Dead Redemption 2 is an excellent prequel, but it's also an emotional, thought-provoking story in its own right, and it's a world that is hard to leave when it's done."
- Standard Edition -- $42.23 (
$60) - Special Edition -- $52.79 (
$80) - Ultimate Edition -- $66 (
$100)
Borderlands 3 | $33.36 ($60)
Valid until Wednesday, December 18, at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET
Borderlands 3 redeems on the Epic Games Store. From GameSpot's Borderlands 3 review: "Borderlands 3 has a few stumbling blocks when it comes to bosses, but these fights are overshadowed by the game's rewarding gunplay and over-the-top humor."
- Standard Edition -- $33.36 (
$60) - Deluxe Edition -- $44.67 (
$79) - Super Deluxe Edition -- $67.85 (
$120)
The Outer Worlds | $38.24 ($60)
Valid until Thursday, December 19, at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET
The Outer Worlds redeems on the Epic Games Store. From GameSpot's The Outer Worlds review: "The Outer Worlds is consistently compelling throughout, and it's a superb example of how to promote traditional RPG sensibilities in a sharp, modern experience."
Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey | $17 ($40)
Valid until Thursday, December 19, at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET
Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey redeems on the Epic Games Store. From GameSpot's Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey review: "Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey lingers for far too long on its most toilsome aspects. The game does reward initial experimentation, but then asks you to repeat processes over and over again without any means of securing your legacy."
More flash deals will be added every day. Tomorrow's discounts belong to The Outer Worlds and Ancestor's Legacy. We'll be sure to report back when their sale prices are revealed.
However, these aren't the only discounts available during Green Man Gaming's winter sale. There are already a ton of games from Ubisoft, 2K Games, and THQ Nordic featured. More will be added throughout the week--all of the winter sale's deals should be available by Friday, December 20. You can see a list of the best in the list below.
