Running until the end of July, the promotion features price cuts of up to 30% across a sprawling catalogue of digital titles. For players looking to complete their virtual libraries, the event serves as the primary mid-year hub to discover indie gems and major releases alike at a fraction of their standard cost.
Indie Spotlights and Sci-Fi Discounts
Among the prominent publishers participating in the mid-year discount drive is Italian studio Two Little Mice. Best known for their cinematic, highly stylised games, the team has slashed the price of Twilight Sword, their grim, beautifully illustrated fantasy rulebook. Players can acquire the Twilight Sword – Core Rulebook along with its official setting expansion, Twilight Sword – Lands of Radia, directly through the sale storefront.
Science fiction fans are also well-catered for in the mid-year clearance. Stellagama Publishing, a design house known for its robust sci-fi engines, has knocked 30% off its catalogue of spacefaring and retro-futuristic titles.
Meanwhile, R. Talsorian Games has discounted a vast portion of its library. Alongside major price cuts on the core digital rulebooks for Cyberpunk RED, the publisher is offering a parallel 30% discount on the RED Nexus, the game’s official digital rules companion hosted on the Demiplane platform, using the code XMAS2026.
Mega-Bundles and Comic Crossovers
For those seeking sheer volume, Skirmisher Publishing has introduced several high-value, limited-run packages specifically for this event. Headlining their discounts is an 80% off Christmas in July Mega-Bundle, which compiles rare titles alongside their Mithral-bestselling Swords of Kos Fantasy Campaign Setting and the recently launched Revolutionary War roleplaying game, Patriot Spies.
The discounts extend beyond game rules into the illustrated worlds that inspire them. DriveThruComics has launched a sister sale, slashing prices by up to 75% on more than 3,600 digital comics and graphic novels. Featured titles include dark fantasy and sci-fi mainstays like The Darkness, Bloodshot, and 2000 AD.
Notably, comic readers can also download a free crossover tie-in: Justice League Unlimited RPG – A Czarnian and a Half. Published by D20Culture, this quickplay scenario is designed to work with the core Justice League Unlimited RPG Quickstart, pitting tier-C heroes against Project Cadmus and the intergalactic bounty hunter, Lobo.
