Fanatical is currently hosting its Summer Sale, offering discounts on hundreds of games. With deals offering up to 95% off, it’s a great opportunity to expand your game collection without breaking the bank. Steam Deck owners are also in for a treat, with a large selection of Verified and Playable titles available at dirt-cheap prices.

Best Steam Deck-friendly games under $3 in the Summer Sale

If you’re on a tight budget or simply want to bolster your library, you’ll find plenty of titles priced under $3 during the sale. While you can’t expect to find new releases at this price, you can still pick up popular hits like XCOM 2, Mad Max, and more.

In any case, here are the best Steam Deck-compatible games available for under $3 during Fanatical’s Summer Sale. In this low-budget bracket, prices range from $2.99 all the way down to $1.59, so don’t miss out on these offers while they’re live.

As you can see in the table above, most of the games we’ve selected are Steam Deck Verified, so they should run smoothly on the handheld right out of the box. On the other hand, the Playable titles should also run fine, but they may require some tweaks and adjustments for optimized performance.

We also previously covered the best Steam Deck games available for under $10 and under $5 during the sale, so make sure to check them out if you’re willing to increase your budget.
