On the retired Lunar New Year Sale, Valve has said it is responding to feedback that the event was often situated too soon after its big winter sale.
Details of when Steam’s next autumn, winter and spring sales will begin have been detailed – and yes, that spring sale date replaces the previous Lunar New Year celebration.
However, over the years we’ve received feedback that Lunar New Year was often much too close to the December holiday sale period.
“We first ran a Lunar New Year Sale on Steam back in 2016 to celebrate the influx of game developers and customers from territories like Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, and South Korea,” Valve wrote in a blog post explaining the changes.
