An event so big no one person can play through it all - Steam Next Fest June 2026 is live with thousands of demos so you can try before release. Like with previous events there will be developer livestreams going on as well. The event runs through June 22nd at 10am pacific / 5pm UTC.
Valve's official trailer is below:

As for some initial quick recommendations? I have a good few gems here that I think are worth your time (and in no particular order):
| Blood Dungeon | over the hill |
| SPRAWL zero | SiN Reloaded |
| PengPong | Project P.I.T.T. |
| Guncrypt | Casualties: Unknown |
And as always, you can check out our own dedicated Demo tag for various games we've already covered at any point. You don't need to wait for some special event - we cover games nearly every day here on GamingOnLinux. We'll continue going through and highlight others as we find them amongst our normal news tips and other articles so keep an eye out.
