Depends what's on sale - but I'll buy Baldur's Gate 3 soon or at release, maybe Starfield too depending on performance.

I'd really love a game that's playable on the Steam Deck on the TV though, Rocket League and SpeedRunners has been great for this. Even moreso if it has local multiplayer.

BattleBit Remastered has been really fun with M+KB recently (and they backed down on the anti-Linux anticheat for now), I wish there were something similar for sports games just focussing on fun over realism, like the old SNES football and hockey games. Something like Mario Strikers but where you manage a team and their stats and abilities, etc.

There's also Old Time Hockey. Looks like a lot of fun, although I've never tried it

Ou!! thanks for this.

This looks awesome. Thanks! Added to wishlist...

There is a hockey game "tape to tape" pins itself as a rouguelite, with 4 player local co-op. Still in early access but seems interesting.

It runs lovely on Deck and is so fun! Absolutely worth it!

You might enjoy the Super Mega Baseball series. Worth a look, anyway.

If you want some fun "sports" games I'd recommend:

  • Super Blood Hockey
  • Super Slam Dunk Touchdown
  • Regular Human Basketball (Great local co-op game)
  • Windjammers 2
  • Lethal League 1 or 2

I am not sure you will like the genre, but can I humbly recommend souldiers? That game is amazing, and does really well in handheld and tv.

Battlebit back down how? is there a link to a statement? last i read they only reverted to eac temporarily until they resolve some bugs with faceit

However, since BattleBit is not competitive as CSGO or R6 etc, the restrictions become overkill for the majority of our player base, because of this, we are still investigating something in between EAC and FACEIT Anti Cheat in terms of requirements.
