The game's previous lowest discounted price was only slightly higher at $23.99, also a 60% discount off the original price. Typically, such deep discounts usually only come during Steam's seasonal or holiday sale events, but this record-setting discount for Alyx is unexpected and isn't accompanied by any event or larger store-wide sale.
If you have a VR gaming-ready PC configuration and you haven't bought the Alyx yet, it's definitely a bargain at this price, but at the same time, why haven't you?
For those (possibly few) PC VR gamers who haven't tried Alyx yet, it's arguably one of the best PC VR experiences out there, and rivals very few others. Here are excerpts from our 2020 review:
The culmination of four years of VR-based learning, Alyx quickly established new platform standards with its 10+ hours of top-notch combat, evolving level design, and occasional moments of genuine innovation.
