If you’ve been craving a mind-bending sci-fi adventure that blends tense combat, intricate storytelling, and the atmospheric dread of classics like BioShock, now’s your chance to dive in. The 2017 RPG shooter Prey, developed by Arkane Studios (Dishonored), is currently 90% off on Steam, slashing its price to a mere $3—a steal for a game hailed as one of the decade’s most underrated gems.
Set aboard the Talos I space station, Prey casts players as Morgan Yu, a scientist trapped in a nightmare where shape-shifting alien creatures stalk every corridor. What begins as a mysterious psychological thriller quickly spirals into a fight for survival, demanding creativity as you scavenge resources, hack systems, and manipulate gravity to outwit enemies. Like BioShock, the game layers philosophical depth beneath its action, questioning free will and humanity’s hubris—all while delivering heart-pounding encounters.

Critics praised Prey for its “immersive sim” DNA, rewarding players who experiment with its sandbox-style gameplay. Want to morph into a coffee cup to slip through vents? Or deploy a makeshift flamethrower to clear a path? The game’s tools empower you to tackle challenges your way—though be warned, its enemies adapt, making every encounter feel unpredictable. “It’s BioShock in space, but with smarter systems and higher stakes,” wrote PC Gamer.
Despite its initial launch being overshadowed by bigger titles, Prey has since cultivated a devoted fanbase. Its DLC, Mooncrash, even inspired the roguelike mechanics of Arkane’s later hit Deathloop. At $3, this isn’t just a discount—it’s a wake-up call for anyone who missed this sci-fi masterpiece.
The sale ends soon, so lock in your purchase and prepare to lose yourself in Talos I’s haunting halls. Just remember: not everything is as it seems… and that coffee mug? It might be watching you.
