Steam’s Best Way To Play New Games Officially Comes Back in 4 Days
Steam Next Fest kicks off on Oct. 19, bringing tons of free game demos for PC players.
Steam's annual PC demo event, Steam Next Fest, will return for its October edition beginning on October 19. This event, which takes place a few times a year, offers free demos of upcoming games to Steam users. The October edition marks the third Next Fest for Steam this year, following similar events in February and June. Judging by the success of previous events, this October edition is expected to provide players with a variety of games to sample.
From Stardew Valley-inspired titles like Emberville to the strange Russian Roulette drinking game Drunken Goddess Reflux, and the multiplayer game We Are So Cooked, there's something for every kind of gamer. Some demos will even be available before the event starts, including for Ace & Aro: Heart-to-Heart and Fallgrade. Polygon reporters will be testing out the demos during the event and will highlight any noteworthy discoveries on their weekly newsletter, Wishlister.
