Steam Lunar New Year Sale will return in February
Moar Dealz! Maybe you remember it, a couple of years ago, Steam followed up its big Winter Sale with a Lunar New Year Sale in early February. 2017 Didn't get one, but the word is out, it'll be coming back for 2018 in just a few weeks.
The Lunar New Year Sale will run February 15 to February 19 as reported by way of Steam Database, a site that often provides proper info about some of the behind-the-scenes goings on at Steam as far as database releases are concerned.
So yeah, you can keep an eye out for mid-February, the leak still remains unconfirmed as Valve itself has yet to confirm this bit of news. The last one took place in 2016, but they skipped in 2017. It'll be interesting to see what Valve is up at this time.

Steam has so many sales, it's all good I suppose......
Does feel like it's becoming a marketing ploy by having high prices during normal times, just so they can generate more interested from marketing yet another sale!

Clearly Steam is scrabbling to make sure they don't just have most of the money but instead have ALL the money... lunar new year sale, for f*ck sake!

Is Steam allowed in China? If it is, then this would make perfect sense. Although that being said, China is such a huge market it could have had its own sales all along, separate from the rest of the world.

Well China seems to be a big market so it's hardly surprising.

Peeps tend to associate Chinese/Lunar New Year with just China. In various parts of Asia, where there is are large Chinese Communities, Lunar New Year is a big deal (much like the 4th of July or Christmas is to Americans). Heck, in my neck of the woods, we have two days of public holiday where even some malls or department stores close as they lack the staff to stay open during the two days.

Yup here in Taiwan the lunar new year is just as big of a deal as it is in China.
