Assassin’s Creed: Which Titles Are Worth Grabbing?
Assassin’s Creed Origins is the standout value in this sale. The game that introduced the franchise’s RPG-style combat and open-world exploration, set in Ptolemaic Egypt, is available for $7.19. With over 345,000 followers on Steam and an 84.84% positive rating, Origins remains one of the most recommended entry points into the modern Assassin’s Creed formula. Its all-time low on Steam was $5.99, so $7.19 is very close to the best price ever recorded.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage, which arrived on Steam in October 2024, returns to the classic stealth-focused gameplay that defined the early entries. At $15.99 (60% off), it offers a tighter, more focused experience compared to the sprawling RPG entries. Assassin’s Creed Rogue, which tells the story from a Templar perspective, drops to just $4.79 at 70% off.
Far Cry Series: Open-World Shooters at Deep Discounts
Far Cry 5 is the most popular Far Cry title on Steam with over 409,000 followers and a peak concurrent player count exceeding 92,000. Set in the fictional Hope County, Montana, the game pits players against a doomsday cult in a fully cooperative open world. At $7.19 (85% off), it is one of the best deals in the entire sale. Its all-time low was $5.99.
Far Cry 4 offers the Himalayan adventure in Kyrat for $4.79 (80% off), while Far Cry Primal takes the series to the Stone Age for $5.99 (75% off). Far Cry New Dawn, the post-apocalyptic spin-off set after Far Cry 5’s events, is $6.39 at 80% off. All four Far Cry titles combined would cost under $25, a strong package for players looking to explore the franchise.
Strategy, Open-World, and Everything Else
Anno 1800 is one of the most respected city-building strategy games of the past decade. Set during the Industrial Revolution, it offers deep production chains, international trade routes, and two interconnected worlds to manage. At $11.99 (75% off), it is an excellent entry price. The game has over 164,000 followers on Steam and an 80% positive rating. Many of its DLC packs are also discounted.
Watch Dogs: Legion drops to $7.19 (85% off), offering a unique “play as anyone” mechanic set in a near-future London. Immortals Fenyx Rising, Ubisoft’s Greek mythology-themed action adventure, is $6.39 at 80% off. Steep, the open-world winter sports game, falls to $3.59 (85% off), and Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is practically a giveaway at $1.59 (80% off).
Other notable items in the sale include Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands at $9.99 (80% off), The Crew 2 at $8.99 (70% off), Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Extraction at $9.99 (75% off), and The Rogue Prince of Persia at $11.99 (60% off).
How Does This Compare to Previous 2026 Ubisoft Sales?
Ubisoft has held multiple publisher-driven sales on Steam in 2026. The largest was the February “Ubisoft Publisher Sale 2026” (February 26 to March 12), which featured discounts up to 95% and included newer titles like Assassin’s Creed Shadows at 50% off and Star Wars Outlaws at 70% off. That event covered a broader catalogue and offered steeper cuts on certain games, with For Honor dropping to just $1.19.
The May sale is narrower in scope and does not include some of the newest releases from that earlier event. However, the core deals on Origins, Far Cry 5, and Watch Dogs Legion match or nearly match the prices seen in February. If you missed the larger sale earlier in the year, this is a solid chance to catch up on those same titles.
Topping Up Your Steam Wallet for the Sale
With the sale ending on May 20, getting your wallet balance ready in advance helps you act quickly on time-limited deals. GamerMarkt’s Steam USD Wallet Code page offers wallet codes sourced from official suppliers, with delivery averaging 1-2 minutes. The platform states that USD codes work across regions, with Steam converting the value to your account’s local currency at the current exchange rate.
When Is the Next Big Steam Sale?
The next major platform-wide discount event is the Steam Summer Sale 2026, confirmed by Valve for June 25 through July 9. Before that, the Ocean Fest runs from May 18 to May 25, though that is a themed festival rather than a broad discount event. Publisher sales like this Ubisoft campaign operate independently from Valve’s seasonal calendar, so if you want these specific Ubisoft titles at these prices, it is safer to buy now rather than hope they match or beat during the Summer Sale.
Things Players Usually Want to Know
How long does the May Ubisoft Sale last?
The sale started on May 13 and ends on May 20, 2026. Steam sales typically end at 10:00 AM Pacific Time (17:00 UTC) on the final day.
Are DLCs and season passes included?
Yes. SteamDB lists 94 total products in this event, including numerous DLC packs and expansion content. Far Cry 5’s Season Pass is 85% off, Assassin’s Creed Origins DLCs are 85% off, and Anno 1800 has over 20 discounted add-ons.
Are these the lowest prices these games have ever been?
Not quite for most titles, but they are very close. SteamDB records show Assassin’s Creed Origins hit $5.99 at its all-time low, Far Cry 5 also reached $5.99, and Immortals Fenyx Rising went as low as $3.99. The current prices are slightly above those records but still represent exceptional value.
Which Assassin’s Creed game should I start with?
For the RPG-style open world that defines the newer games, Assassin’s Creed Origins is the recommended starting point. If you prefer the classic stealth-focused formula, Assassin’s Creed Mirage or Assassin’s Creed Rogue are strong choices. All three are discounted in this sale.
Is Far Cry 5 still worth playing in 2026?
Far Cry 5 remains one of the most played entries in the franchise, with over 3,000 concurrent players at the time of this sale. Its cooperative campaign, memorable villain, and open-ended gameplay loop hold up well. At $7.19, the price-to-content ratio is hard to beat.
