The tagline gives most of the itinerary away- play 500+ demo games that are yet to be released, watch your favorite streamers and devs livestream them. And lastly, talk to them, ask them questions about their journey, suggest changes, or anything else viewers might want to discuss.
Steam, on its official Steam YouTube channel, has released teasers of games that will be available next week.
Fierce strategy games like Floopy Knights and Timberborn, realistic VR games like Battle Blocks and Rhythm of the Universe: Ionia, Horror games like Slender Threads and Lamentum, are just a fraction of the games available on the platform during the event. Other genres expected include adventure, action, platformer, puzzle, RPG, racing and visual novel.
Steam Game Festival released various teasers, one such being Strategy.
Steam, although, has not mentioned what will happen to the games after the event is over. Most probably, the games will be inaccessible after the week since they are yet to be officially released. Or the demos will simply remain in Steam Store in case people want to play them beyond the event.
