Every Steam account will receive a one-time $5 discount off any purchase of $30 or more to use during the Lunar New Year sale, which ends on Feb. 11 at 1 p.m. ET. The offer works on all titles over $30, but does not qualify for gift purchases.

Valve has also set up a “rewards booth” for the sale that offers emoticons, profile badges, and an additional $5 discount coupon by exchanging tokens. Tokens can be earned by purchasing games during the sale at 100 tokens per $1 or 111 tokens per $1 for gifts, and can be exchanged until Feb. 12 at 1 p.m. ET. Every Steam account will receive an initial amount of tokens as a gift “based on previous purchases made.”

A few of the highlighted deals for the sale include 75% off for Dark Souls III, Far Cry 5, and Xcom 2, while there is a big emphasis on local co-op games like A Hat in Time, Ultimate Chicken Horse, and Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime. The sale is also showcasing specific titles by Chinese developers, such as Pathea Games’s My Time at Portia and TPP Studio’s Home Behind.
