From major hits to overlooked gems, these are the RPG deals most worth your time in the Steam Spring Sale 2026.
The next couple of days will be your last chance to take advantage of the Steam Spring Sale 2026. And just in time (or perhaps slightly too late), as the countdown has begun toward the end of the sale and this discounted pricing window, I have written an article that lists out 20 of the top turn-based RPG games that were released recently or less.
The Steam Spring Sale will run until March 26th at 10 am PT. Therefore, the storefront is full of sales on all sorts of RPG sub-genres. This includes RPGs in all types of sub-genres, including but not limited to: large open-world CRPGs, tactical RPGs, and off-the-wall RPGs.
As usual, there will be one familiar issue. The sheer number of discounts can make it difficult to sift through all the options, and some of those discounts won’t seem as worthwhile as others. Rather than scrolling through page after page of deals, I have chosen twenty RPGs that are special in their own way and represent the best value for what you are getting in this sale.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
- Developer: Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio
- Release Date: 25 January, 2024
- Platform: Windows, PlayStation, Xbox
- Steam Page
The Yakuza series, now rebranded to its original title Like A Dragon, has always had a level of JRPG-style weirdness. The introduction of Ichiban as a new protagonist with his signature turn-based playstyle has led the franchise to lean into that even more, and the results have thus far been electrifying; his latest adventure, Infinite Wealth, is a high point for the series.
A high-profile title like this one usually sells for $69.99, but for the Spring Sale Steam has it discounted a fantastic 70%, letting you add it to your collection for just $20.99 this week. The discount also applies to the Deluxe and Ultimate Editions, and Ichiban’s first game, Yakuza: Like A Dragon, is on sale for just $7.99 at the same time.
The Last Spell
- Developer: Ishtar Games
- Release Date: 9 March, 2023
- Platform: Windows, PlayStation, Switch
- Steam Page
The Last Spell puts you in command of a small party of heroes tasked with defending a city against nightly hordes of monsters… hundreds of them.
It’s a game that pulls no punches, but when you get the hang of it and start to combo off it’s intensely satisfying to cleave through dozens of critters at a time, thanks in particular to The Last Spell‘s slick pixel art and amazing symphonic-metal soundtrack.
The base game is just $2.49 during the Steam Spring Sale, a stellar 90% off its base price of $24.99. All of the DLC is also discounted, though not by quite as much, so the Legendary Edition is a great way to get the whole package.
Wasteland 3
- Developer: inXile Entertainment
- Release Date: 27 August, 2020
- Platform: Windows, Mac, Linux, PlayStation, Xbox
- Steam Page
If you’re waiting for Dark Heresy and need a CRPG to fill the gap, Wasteland 3 is a great choice. Similar to classic Fallout but with all the conveniences of a modern game, it drops you in a post-apocalyptic Colorado where your choices will affect the world in unexpected ways. There’s also plenty of smart, deadly tactical combat to test your skills.
The Digital Deluxe Edition of Wasteland 3 is actually cheaper than the Standard Edition for the Spring Sale, discounted 80% from $49.99 down to $9.99. The Colorado Collection, which contains the base game plus all the DLC, is just $15.40, or you can get the Wasteland Series Bundle, which has all of the above plus the first two games, for $28.10.
Total War: WARHAMMER III
- Developer: Creative Assembly, Feral Interactive
- Release Date: 17 February, 2022
- Platform: Windows, Mac, Linux, Xbox
- Steam Page
The chaotic, bloody Old World is a perfect setting for a fantasy Total War game, and two sequels later grand campaigns in the world of Warhammer have become the definitive Total War experience. It’s hard to find a strategy game with more depth or replay value than Total War: Warhammer III.
Even if you buy the game at its full price of $59.99 there’s more than enough content to get your money’s worth, so the Steam Sale price of $14.99, a 75% savings, is a great deal. If you’re looking for the complete Warhammer experience, a trilogy bundle is available too – and yes, the older games still hold up.
Hellslave
- Developer: Ars Goetia
- Release Date: 26 May, 2022
- Platform: Windows
- Steam Page
If you like your RPGs dark, it doesn’t get much darker than the bowels of Hell. Hellslave challenges you to fight fire with fire, offering your soul in a pact for demonic power in a desperate bid to save the world. There are plenty of ways to customize your build as you explore, and a sequel was recently announced too!
Steam has Hellslave for just $2.99 during the Spring Sale, no infernal contracts required. That’s 85% off its regular price of $19.99, and it’s also available bundled with Angst if you’re in the mood for a different kind of danger.
Hard West 2
- Developer: Ice Code Games
- Release Date: 4 August, 2022
- Platform: Windows
- Steam Page
Hard West 2 is a stylish, atmospheric frontier adventure full of occult mysteries. After losing your souls in a card game, your band of desperadoes needs to chase the devil’s train across the West to get them back.
Hard West 2′s tactical battles feature high-risk, high-reward gameplay where each character’s traits make them a unique presence on the field.
This game is a lot more than just your average “get to cover and shoot,” and at 80% off it’s a bargain – you can add it to your Steam Library for just $5.99, rather than the usual $29.99. The original Hard West is even cheaper at just $1.99 during the Spring Sale.
Wolfstride
- Developer: OTA IMON Studios
- Release Date: 7 December, 2021
- Platform: Windows, Mac, Switch, Android
- Steam Page
Wolfstride is a story-driven game, using black-and-white visuals to tell the tale of two crooks entering a mech combat tournament. It’s silly but also sincere, making it a good pick for fans of Earthbound or Undertale who have grown up but haven’t, you know, “grown up.”
Wolfstride is usually only $14.99, which is a pretty good price to begin with, but right now, Steam has it discounted by 75% to just $3.74. You can also get it with several different bundles, cobbling together a fun mini-collection of niche games.
Persona 5: Tactica
- Developer: Atlus
- Release Date: 16 November, 2023
- Platform: Windows, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch
- Steam Page
A spinoff rather than a remake or retelling, Persona 5: Tactica is a brand-new adventure featuring the Phantom Thieves. This time, they’ll be leading a revolution in a new world they find themselves exploring, with grid-based battles and chibi characters replacing the old JRPG fights and classic style.
Persona games know what they’re worth, so a discount is always a great opportunity with this series. Steam has Persona 5: Tactica listed at 70% off for the Spring Sale, down from $59.99 to $17.99. The Deluxe Edition is just two dollars more during the sale period, and if you haven’t played the original Persona 5, it’s also $17.99 on Steam this week.
Darkest Dungeon II
- Developer: Red Hook Studios
- Release Date: 8 May, 2023
- Platform: Windows, Mac, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch
- Steam Page
Darkest Dungeon II took the series from roguelite to full roguelike, sending your party of four on doomed journeys into the darkness over and over again. The result is an experience that, while less granular, focuses on the individual heroes and their tragic histories while still providing edge-of-your-seat combat against terrifying entities.
Normally priced at $39.99, Darkest Dungeon II is down to $12.39 for the Steam Spring Sale, a savings of 69%, while the Resolute Edition is just $27.35, letting you get all the DLC for less than the regular price of the basic game. The original Darkest Dungeon is on sale as well, for just $3.74, and the two games are offered as a bundle.
Born of Bread
- Developer: WildArts Games
- Release Date: 5 December, 2023
- Platform: Windows, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch
- Steam Page
An all-ages adventure in the tradition of Paper Mario, Born of Bread is full of lovely 2.5D environments to explore and whimsical characters to meet. As fresh-baked flour golem Loaf, you’ll team up with friends you meet on your journey to solve mysteries, fight monsters, and become a hero.
Steam has Born of Bread discounted at 80% off during the Spring Sale, bringing it from an already-reasonable $24.99 down to just $4.99. The Baker Edition, which includes a digital soundtrack and artbook, is just a bit more at $6.70.
Sunday Gold
- Developer: BKOM Studios
- Release Date: 13 October, 2022
- Platform: Windows
- Steam Page
Sunday Gold is primarily a point-and-click adventure (and a great one at that), interspersed with turn-based RPG combat against corporate goons and killer cyborgs.
In this rough-and-tumble dystopian tale, you’ll lead a trio of small-time London criminals going after a big score, unraveling the secrets of a powerful and dangerous corporation.
The Steam Summer Sale has Sunday Gold discounted 80% to a fantastic price of $4.39, well under its usual tag of $21.99. You can also get it as part of several different bundles, all of which offer significant savings on overlooked gems.
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance
- Developer: Atlus
- Release Date: 13 June, 2024
- Platform: Windows, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch
- Steam Page
Shin Megami Tensei is Atlus’ Final Fantasy – a beloved franchise of deep, beautiful JRPGs that you can get lost in for hundreds of hours.
The most recent entry in the series is no exception, and is arguably the best SMT title to date. What path will you follow as humans are once again caught in the crossfire between gods and demons?
If you’re a hardcore JRPG fan, Shin Megami Tensei V is a game you don’t want to miss. If you’ve been waiting for the price to come down, now is the best chance you’re likely to see for a while; Steam has it down from $59.99 to just $20.99, or you can get the Digital Deluxe Edition for $24.49. Either way, you’re saving 65%.

Mato Anomalies

Dual-perspective games are always a treat, especially when the playable characters present completely unique gameplay.
Mato Anomalies is one such game, mixing anime style, cyberpunk dystopia, and occult mysteries all in one story. As detective Doe, you’ll investigate the goings-on of the city, then take over as exorcist Gram to enter the realm of demons and take the fight to them.

Shattered Heaven
- Developer: Leonardo Production
- Release Date: 8 November, 2023
- Platform: Windows
- Steam Page
I know, if you’re a deck builder fan, you’re probably dozens of hours into Slay The Spire 2 at this point, but if you’re looking for some quality card combat and a deep story, you should definitely check out Shattered Heaven.
Its worldbuilding is brought to life with lovely art, all coming together in tight deck-building gameplay, making it a great addition to your collection.
Shattered Heaven has a free demo available on Steam, and if you like it, be sure to pick it up before the Spring Sale ends – that way you can save 70%, getting it for $5.99 instead of $19.99. The Anniversary Edition, which includes the soundtrack, is similarly discounted, going for just $7.00.
One Piece Odyssey
- Developer: ILCA, Inc.
- Release Date: 12 January, 2023

One Piece is one of the biggest anime and manga series ever, and this standalone JRPG adventure does it justice with flying colors.
With a party comprised of the mighty Straw Hats, you’ll explore a new, undiscovered island in stunning detail. Even if you aren’t a fan of the series, it’s still a rock-solid RPG adventure.
One Piece Odyssey usually goes for $39.99, which isn’t bad considering the licensing behind it, but Steam has it down to $14.79 for the duration of the Spring Sale, letting you save 63%. The Deluxe Edition is only $23.99, letting you add extra cosmetics and a bonus scenario to the game as well.
Tactics Ogre: Reborn
- Developer: Square Enix
- Release Date: 11 November, 2022
- Platform: Windows, PlayStation, Switch
- Steam Page
Tactics Ogre originally launched around the same time as Final Fantasy Tactics, and the two games are held up as the pillars of isometric TRPGs as we know them today.
Tactics Ogre didn’t get as much traction as its cousin, but thanks to remakes like 2022’s Tactics Ogre Reborn, you can still experience its deep character progression and tough-but-fair combat decades later.
Tactics Ogre Reborn is available for $19.99 as part of the Steam Spring Sale, letting you save 60% off a title that’s usually $49.99. The Premium Edition, which includes the soundtrack, is also 60% off, so you can get it for $23.99 during the sale.
Master of Magic
- Developer: MuHa Games, Eerie Forest Studio
- Release Date: 13 December, 2022
- Platform: Windows
- Steam Page
Master of Magic is a classic of PC gaming, blending strategy with a dash of role-playing and a high-fantasy power trip.
The 2022 remake is extremely faithful to the original in the best way, bringing back the feeling of ’90s fantasy games without getting too bogged down in clunky retro gameplay. Whether you played the original for hours on end back in the day or never got the chance until now, this is a lovely tribute to days gone by.
Master of Magic usually sells for $39.99 on Steam, but it’s 60% off during the Spring Sale, knocking the price down to $15.99. The Complete Bundle, which includes all the DLC and the game in its original incarnation, is also available as a perfect blend of classic and modern.
