As promised, the Autumn Sale is now underway
on Steam, kicking off a week of
discounts on a wide variety of games. This also opens the Steam Awards season,
and you can go to
this page to nominate games for various honors across 11 categories. This
nomination window and the sale both run until November 28th, and the winners of
these Steam Awards will be announced on January 2nd.
This post has the announcement, including the
Official
Trailer. The sale part is self-explanatory, so here's more on the
surrounding activities:
Nominate a game in each category by visiting the
Steam Awards
Nomination page (via the Steam homepage) once the sale starts or via the
event post from developers of the titles you like. Participating events can be
found on the library details page for a specific game.
You can even earn a badge for participating in the Steam Awards: nominate at
least one game, nominate a game in each category, play a game you've nominated,
and/or review (or update a review for) a game you've nominated. Complete all
tasks to earn 100 profile
XP.
