Notable DLC deals include the Resident Evil 4 Separate Ways DLC (still at $9.99 full price), the Winters’ Expansion at 50% off ($9.99), and the RE7 Season Pass at 75% off ($7.49). The Requiem Deluxe Kit DLC is also at a new historic low of $11.99 (20% off).
Why Is Resident Evil 4 Remake at $9.99 a Big Deal?
Resident Evil 4 Remake holds a 96.16% positive rating on Steam with over 309,000 followers. Its previous lowest price on Steam was $15.99, set during a 60% discount in December 2025. This sale’s 75% cut to $9.99 represents a significant new floor for the game. The Gold Edition, which bundles the Separate Ways DLC and Mercenaries content, is available at $14.99 (70% off), making it arguably the best overall value in this sale.
For context, RE4 Remake peaked at 168,191 concurrent players on Steam at launch in March 2023 and remains one of the highest-rated games on the platform. At under $10, this is an exceptional entry point for anyone who has been waiting to play.
Is Resident Evil Requiem Worth Buying at 20% Off?
Resident Evil Requiem launched on February 27, 2026, as the ninth mainline entry in the series. It was the first Resident Evil game with a $69.99 price tag. Despite the premium pricing, it has earned a 94.82% positive rating on Steam and smashed series records with 344,214 concurrent players on launch weekend, more than double RE4 Remake’s peak. Capcom confirmed that Requiem surpassed 5 million wishlists across all platforms before release.
The game features dual protagonists: returning series favourite Leon Kennedy and newcomer FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft. Leon’s campaign leans into action-heavy gameplay, while Grace’s sections focus on classic survival horror with resource management and puzzle-solving. Both are playable in first-person and third-person perspectives. At $55.99, this is the cheapest Requiem has ever been, and given its critical reception, it is a strong buy for series fans.
The Original Trilogy Is Now on Steam
One development many players may have missed is that the original Resident Evil (1996), Resident Evil 2 (1998), and Resident Evil 3 Nemesis (1999) were released on Steam in April 2026. Previously, these classics were only available on PC through GOG. Each title carries an 84-86% positive rating on Steam and is available at $4.99 (50% off) during this sale.
These are the original fixed-camera, tank-control versions that defined the survival horror genre. They are worth trying for historical appreciation, though players seeking a more modern experience should look at the respective remakes.
Where to Start If You Have Never Played Resident Evil
The Resident Evil series spans 30 years and dozens of titles, so jumping in can feel overwhelming. Here are two common approaches:
Modern entry point (recommended for new players): Start with the Resident Evil HD Remaster ($4.99), then move to RE2 Remake ($7.99), RE4 Remake ($9.99), RE7 ($7.99), Village ($9.99), and finally Requiem ($55.99). This path covers the best-reviewed entries with modern controls and graphics. Total cost during this sale: approximately $96.
Chronological story order: RE0, RE1 (Remaster), RE2, RE3, Code Veronica (not on Steam), RE4, Revelations, RE5, Revelations 2, RE6, RE7, Village. Requiem sits chronologically around the RE3 era despite being the newest release. This approach works best for players who want to track the full Umbrella Corporation narrative.
If budget is the main concern, RE1 HD Remaster ($4.99) and RE7 ($7.99) together offer two very different but equally excellent Resident Evil experiences for under $13.
How the Prices Compare to Third-Party Key Stores
During this sale, Steam’s direct pricing on several titles is highly competitive with third-party key stores. RE4 Remake at $9.99 on Steam beats or matches prices on platforms like Fanatical and Green Man Gaming. Requiem at $55.99 is comparable to the 18% off deals that key stores like GMG offered at launch ($57.39). The main advantage of buying directly on Steam is the guarantee of a legitimate key, access to Steam’s refund policy, and no regional key restrictions.
For players looking to expand their Steam library with pre-owned accounts that already include Resident Evil titles, GamerMarkt’s Steam account marketplace offers a secure platform to browse and purchase accounts with verified game libraries.
What About the Steam Summer Sale?
The Steam Summer Sale is scheduled to start on June 25, 2026, and run through July 9. This means the Resident Evil Franchise Sale ends a week before the Summer Sale begins. While Resident Evil games will likely appear in the Summer Sale as well, the franchise-specific sale historically offers stronger or equivalent discounts compared to general seasonal sales. The historic low prices on RE4 Remake and RE2 Remake during this event suggest now is a strong time to buy rather than waiting.
Things Worth Knowing Before You Buy
Does Resident Evil Requiem work on Steam Deck?
Yes. Early reports confirm that Requiem is playable on Steam Deck, running at 30-45fps with adjusted settings. Using FSR 3.1.5 at balanced quality and targeting 45fps at 90Hz on the Steam Deck OLED provides a solid experience, with power draw between 16-18W. The game defaults to FSR 1 and 30fps cap on Deck, so manual tweaking is recommended.
Which remake is the best value during this sale?
RE2 Remake at $7.99 offers arguably the best value. It has a 95.87% positive rating, two full campaigns (Leon and Claire), and is widely considered one of the finest survival horror games ever made. RE4 Remake at $9.99 is a close second, especially in its Gold Edition form at $14.99.
Are the DLCs worth buying during this sale?
The Winters’ Expansion for Village ($9.99, 50% off) adds the Shadows of Rose story DLC, third-person mode, and additional Mercenaries content. It is well worth the price for Village fans. The RE7 Season Pass ($7.49, 75% off) includes Banned Footage and End of Zoe, both of which are strong additions to the base game.
Does Resident Evil Requiem use Denuvo?
Yes. Requiem includes Denuvo anti-tamper DRM, with a limit of five PC activations per day. This has not significantly impacted the game’s Steam reviews, which remain above 94% positive.
Can I play these games co-op?
Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6 support online co-op for their full campaigns. Resident Evil Revelations 2 has local co-op. RE Resistance (included with RE3 Remake) is an asymmetric multiplayer mode, though its player base is limited. The modern remakes (RE2, RE3, RE4) and RE7/Village are single-player only in their main campaigns.
