Fanatical recently went live with its annual Spring sale, offering discounts on a large collection of Steam games across the storefront. The site is perhaps better known for its regular game bundles, but it also has a storefront – just like Steam. As such, it’s a nice way to pick up some cheap games if you don’t want to wait for Steam’s official spring sale to come along (you can see a full list of Steam sales in 2026 here).

We’re seeing deals offering up to 90% off, so it’s a great way to expand your game library without feeling like you have to overspend. And if you’re a Steam Deck owner, there are plenty of compatible titles included in the sale. We previously covered the best Steam Deck games available for under $10 in the sale, so let’s drop down even further to less than $3.

Best Steam Deck games under $3 in the latest Spring sale

If you’re working with a tight budget or just want to get the best bang for your buck, you’ll be glad to learn that there are plenty of titles available for just under $3. While you won’t be able to score new releases under this budget, you can still find games that offer plenty of content and will keep you busy for some time to come.

In any case, here’s our selection of the best Steam Deck Verified games available for under $3 during Fanatical’s Spring sale. Keep in mind that every single one of these is a verified title, so they should run smoothly on the Valve handheld right out of the box.

If you’re interested in scoring more games for less, then Fanatical is also currently selling a Platinum Collection bundle. This one comes packed with 17 Steam Deck-compatible games worth $353, but you can get them for only $48.
