All hands on Deck
Valve has announced that, during next week’s The Game Awards festivities, it is planning to give away oneSteam Deckfor every minute of the annual award ceremony. I am resisting the urge to make a “so that’ll be 7000 Steam Decks” joke. Please bear with me during this difficult time.
Then on December 8, be sure to tune into The Game Awards via the Steam app. All qualifying participants, who are currently watching the ceremony via Steam will be placed into a lottery. Names will be drawn at random on a minute-to-minute basis, with each winner bagging themselves a 512GB Steam Deck. Full terms, conditions, and rules are availableover on the official Steam website.
If you were planning on watching the show anyway, then this might be a fine way to potentially bag yourself a reward for doing so. We can assume that a helluva lot of people will enter the sweepstakes, and given that The Game Awards 2021 was watched by some six million viewers on Twitch and YouTube alone, there’s gonna be more than a few names in the hat. Still, worth a shot, right? Besides, every participant will automatically bag themselvesthissuper cutedigital sticker.
The Game Awards 2022 takes place Thursday, December 8, at 16:30 PT / 19:30 ET / 00:30 BST.
