Due to current events, the steam game festival was delayed for a few days. However from other sources it is believed that the sale will come right after that. Users will get to try demos of upcoming games as well.

Quote

The Summer Edition Steam Game Festival has been pushed back a week to June 16. 

This is not the same event as the Steam Summer Sale, which is known for promoting game sales by offering thousands of discounts across the digital marketplace. Instead, this is a newer event that provides short playable experiences, such as demo versions, of games that have not been released yet. 

The first Steam Game Festival overlapped with The Game Awards back in December, and showcased several indie titles like Skatebird, CARRION, and Moving Out.

Thoughts: Understandable, but I am curious what blockbusters will be appearing this month? Perhaps... 

BTW the the Indie live expo 2020 aired today, so be sure to check that out. Some of the games in the video might be featured in the steam festival too.

More games for me to buy on sale anyway 😉

How about an update for Team Fortress 2, Valve? It could use a lot of help right now. 

That being said, I think I own what I want for this year, namely SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated.

Fingers crossed for Left 4 Dead 3, I know Valve's allergy to the number 3 too much though...

Damn I wish there was a "sad" reaction, but since there is none, had to go with "laughing"

I hope Bloodborne haha. God I hope those rumors are true because it would be glorious at 60 fps. Already one of my top 3 games of the last 40 years even at 30 fps with really bad frame pacing on PS4.
