Gaming has become more diverse than ever with hundreds of different genres and thousands of unique games coming out each and every month. But the genre that never seems to step out of the spotlight is the good old action-adventure genre. Gamers absolutely love action adventure games and some of these titles have been out and around for ages and they are still kicking.
And now with 2022 finally coming to an end, I think it’s a great time to talk about some of the best games this genre has to offer… with discounts! So, here is the list of the top 5 best action adventure games on Steam Sale right now.
God of War

God of War, without any doubt, is one of the most popular game series of all time, and for very good reasons. This action-adventure title offers everything from a compelling storyline to intense action, stunningly gorgeous visuals, and some of the best character development I’ve ever seen in video games.
Based on ancient Norse mythology, God of War has you surviving through the brutal and unforgiving lands of Norse Gods while teaching your son to do so as well. This game has a rich story with great voice acting and moments that keep you immersed throughout the full course of this journey as a father-son duo.
Horizon Zero Dawn

The Horizon series has one of the best post-apocalyptic settings of all time, it’s both gorgeous and brutal at the same time. Living in a world now ruled by colossal killing machines, the player assumes control of Alloy, an outcast of her tribe on a wild adventure to unravel the dark mysteries of this unforgiving world.
Horizon Zero Dawn features a vast open world filled with deadly mecha-creatures that are out for blood. This game features one of the most thrilling combat systems that alone makes me wanna jump back into the game every once in a while. And since it’s been discounted up to 60% on Steam, this might just be the perfect opportunity for you to try it out.
Days Gone

There is something about the dark and evil environment that keeps us gamers fascinated and when there are zombies involved, things get much more exciting. Days Gone has been out and around for quite a while now but it still remains one of the best zombie games to date. Unlike many other post-apocalyptic games, Days Gone actually has a good story with epic action and gruesome executions.
If you haven’t played it yet, which is a big if, you should definitely give this one a go, especially now that you get a massive discount of 60%. Days Gone is also Steam Deck verified, meaning you can get the rush of adrenaline right on your handheld device anytime, anywhere.
Control Ultimate Edition

Control has to be one of the coolest action-adventure games to date. Released back in 2020, this game comes packed with a perfect mix of compelling narrative and epic action. Playing as an agent tasked with eliminating a dark and mysterious force that has taken over the federal bureau of control, you have to do everything in your power to restore order.
The thing that I love the most about Control is that you get to use everything around you as a weapon using your awesome superpowers. The game has received a ton of highly positive reviews from the players and critics alike, with a Metacritic score of 85. And now the price dropping to just $10, it’s a no-brainer!
Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Game of the Year Edition

Developed by CD project RED, Witcher 3 Wild Hunt has been crowned as one of the best action-adventure RPGs of all time. Everything from storyline to combat is just great but what makes this game stand out from the crowd is its intricately designed open world that adds life to the whole adventure. Besides the main quest, there’s a lot to do in this game, which is what I love the most about it.
There’s very little chance of you not having played this game, but I had to include it because of the massive 80% discount that you get on purchasing this game on Steam.
That brings us to the end of our list of the top 5 action adventure games on a Steam sale. I am sure many of you have been saving up your hard-earned cash to buy your favorite video games with discounts and well, this is your chance!
