A new day and with it comes new sales. The Steam Summer Sale has moved onto day 6 now bringing a new wave of franchise and individual sales to the daily sale, flash sale and monster community event bonus sale.
Like with each day of the sale, some of yesterdays sales are still available so be sure to check out our coverage of day 5 and keep in mind some deals will be returning for the encore Steam Summer Sale.
Todaythe daily deals are not including many franchises oddly enough considering what has been seen so far in the sale. The franchises today in the daily deals are Total War and Final Fantasy.
Total War has plenty of games in the sale so if you’ve heard of the series and wanted to give it a try then this is the perfect time. The most recent game to the franchise is Total War: Attila which as a 33% discount, if you are uncertain about this one then you’re in luck as Gamespresso has reviewed this one. Total War: Rome II Emperor Edition has a nice 75% discount on it’s head including improved visuals and many extra changes to make the game even better. All of the other games in the franchise have a 50% discount bringing some of them down to low prices making this a perfect time to get into the series.
Final Fantasy is a franchise filled with games and there are plenty on sale right now in the daily deals. All of the games listed have a 50% discount including several bundles for fans who are lacking several games from the series or for new people looking to enter the series.
While there aren’t too many franchise sales today there are still plenty of games available as a daily deal including some games that received a very positive response. Here’s a full list of today’s daily deals:

The Street Fighter franchise sale only includes Street Fighter IV however but at least that game is cut to 50% off. The next addition to the series is due for release next year and this currently no preorder promotion for the game.
Deus Ex however is much more promising sale wise. Each game has been given an 80% price cut and with the gameplay trailer for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided being revealed today no doubt there are many new players who would like to give the series a try. This is the perfect time to pick up the series and give it a test before the new game come out.
