Rising Storm 2: Vietnam is $15 on Amazon (save $15), which gets you a Steam key. It only came out around six months ago, so it's a quick discount and comes just before a big update. On Amazon UK it's £11.50 (save £7.49).
Overwatch is $20 on Battle.net (50% off). In the UK it's £17 (save £13).
Titanfall 2 is $10/£12.49 on Origin (50% off), which is a great price for a great shooter, especially if you like a good singleplayer campaign.

Kerbal Space Program is $23.99/£18 on GOG (save $16/£12) and is one of the best games of all time by our measure.
The Metro Redux Bundle is $6/£5 on the Humble Store (save $24/£20) and includes two of our favorite shooters, Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light.
Planet Coaster is $18/£13.49 on the Humble Store (save $18/£13.49). It's one of the best theme park sims around, and adorable with it.
The Aquatic Adventure of the Last Human is $2/£1.59 on the Humble Store (save $8/£6.40) and it's a fantastic metroidvania. Well worth a couple bucks.
The Sexy Brutale is $9/£6.74 on Fanatical (save $11/£8.25), a good price for a clever adventure game (we gave it an 82%).
Ruiner is $13.39/£10.04 on Steam (save 33%) and is one of our favorite recent games.
Amazon
Amazon doesn't have many game deals yet, but we expect more to pop up throughout the week. Many of Amazon's PC game sales get you a Steam key, but we'll mention if the deal is for a physical edition or a download from Amazon.
Killing Floor 2 is $15 on Amazon (save $15).
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is $12 on Amazon (save $28).

Humble Store
Humble is running its Fall Sale, and all purchases get you a Steam key for the game. For a limited time, Brutal Legend is discounted by 100%—which is to say that it's free—and a bunch of other games are available at steep discounts. The sale is huge, and there's a lot in the mix, so we've sifted through it to pick out some favorites:
System Shock Pack is $4/£3 on the Humble Store (save $16/£12), and includes System Shock Enhanced Edition and System Shock 2.
Valkyria Chronicles is $5/£3.74 on the Humble Store (save $15/£11.25).

Necropolis: Brutal Edition is $4.49/£3.44 on the Humble Store (save $25.50/£19.55). It isn't the best dungeon crawler out there, but it's fun with a friend.
Lords of the Fallen is $4.79/£3.83 on the Humble Store (save about $25/£20).
Psychonauts is $1/£0.69 on the Humble Store (save $9/£7.19).
Green Man Gaming
Green Man is having a Black Friday blowout as usual, though you won't be able to see all of the discounts unless you register and sign in. Where it often diverges from competitors is with small (15% or so) discounts on popular or brand new games, and there are already a few available:
XCOM 2 is $19.80/£11.55 on Green Man Gaming (save 67%).
No Man's Sky is $24/£16 on Green Man Gaming (save 60%).
Assassin's Creed Origins is $51/£41.49 on Green Man Gaming (save $9/£8.50). The Official Ubisoft Store slightly beats this at $40.19. UK store has it for £41.49.
Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is $51/£34 on Green Man Gaming (save $9/£6).
South Park: The Fractured But Whole is $51 on Green Man Gaming (save $9), though the Official Ubisoft Store beats it with $45. UK edition is £37.50.
Rocket League is $10/£7.50 on Green Man Gaming (save 50%) and if you ask Tyler, it's the best game. The best game that there is. (He plays way too much Rocket League.)
Absolver is $25.49/£19.54 on Green Man Gaming (save $4.50/about £3.50).
Dustforce DX is $2.25/£1.57 on Green Man Gaming ($7.74/£5.42).
Fanatical
Fanatical (formerly Bundle Stars) gives you Steam keys when you buy, and right now they're offering an extra 10% off on some games when you use the code BLACKFRIDAY10. Here are a few highlights from the sale so far:
Mad Max is $5 on Fanatical (save $15). It's surprisingly good!
The Metro Redux Bundle is $6/£4 on Fanatical (save $24/£12), the same as Humble's deal.
The Jackbox Party Pack 4 is $18.74/£14.24 on Fanatical (save $6.25/£4.75), a small discount on this collection of absurd games to play with friends live or over a stream.
Dead Cells is $12.74/£10.50 on Fanatical (save $4.25/£3.50).
Overcooked is $8.49/£6.50 on Fanatical (save $8.50/£6.50); a great couch co-op game.
Tabletop Simulator is $10/£7.49 on Fanatical (save $10/£7.50).
Steam
The annual Steam Autumn Sale is live and will run from November 22 to November 28. Here are the best deals on the PC's biggest games marketplace.
Middle-earth: Shadow of War is $35.99/£27.00 on Steam (save 40%).
Dark Souls 3 is $23.99/£16.00 on Steam (save 60%).
Crusader Kings 2 is $10/£7.49 on Steam (save $20/£22), and its DLC is discounted, too.
Endless Space 2 is $20/£17.49 on Steam (save $20/£17.49) and just got a big update.
SteamWorld Heist is $4.94/£3.62 on Steam (save about $10/£6), and SteamWorld Dig 2 is $15/£11.42 on Steam (save $5/£3.75).
This War of Mine is 80% off on Steam, coming to just $4/£3. You can find the same deal on GOG.
Origin
EA ran a Black Friday sale on Origin last year and it's at it again, with some decent discounts on its 2016 lineup, and even some markdowns on 2017 games. Here's the best of what's on offer now:
FIFA 18 is $36/£36.66 on Origin (save $24/33%) and is a definite improvement on previous PC FIFA releases.
Need for Speed Payback is $40/£36.66 on Origin (save $20/about £19), though it's worth noting we didn't exactly care for it.
Mass Effect: Andromeda is $20/£17.49 on Origin (save $20/17.50), and the Deluxe Edition is $25/£22.49 on Origin (save $25/£22.49). Despite all our issues with Andromeda, you're getting a lot of open-world space adventuring for your dollar at those prices. Unless you really want the soundtrack, though, we don't recommend the Deluxe Edition which mostly includes special armor and extra multiplayer items. There won't be any singleplayer DLC.
Dragon Age: Inquisition is $5/£4.49 on Origin (save $15/about £12), and at that price it's definitely worth a go—it was one of our favorite games of 2014.
Ubisoft Store
Ubisoft has some light deals on PC downloads, including for some brand new games. Just make sure you're looking at the PC download edition, as the console discounts are different.
The Division is $20 on the Ubisoft Store (save $30). It's £16 in the UK.
Watch Dogs 2 is $20.40 on the Ubisoft Store (save $39.59). It's £17 in the UK.
Far Cry Primal is $20 on the Ubisoft Store (save $30). It's £16 for UK buyers.
Assassin's Creed Syndicate is $20 on the Ubisoft Store (save $20). For UK readers, it's £17.50.
Battle.net
Blizzard brings us discounts of up to 50% off on three of Battle.net's biggest games: Destiny 2, Overwatch, and World of Warcraft.
Paradox Plaza
Paradox has knocked a lot of money off the best titles in its catalogue, including Cities: Skylines and Tyranny. If you already have these games be sure to check out the smaller but still significant discounts on expansion packs.
Hearts of Iron IV is $15.99/£13.99 on Paradox Plaza (60% off) and Fanatical for the WWII generals out there.
Crusader Kings 2 is $10/£7.50 on Paradox Plaza (75% off), it's still one of the best story generators ever.
