The Steam Game Festival debuted in December 2019 during The Game Awards, with time-limited demos only for 13 upcoming games. In March, the Steam Game Festival provided a time-frame of five days instead of 48 hours as well as demos for 40 games due to the GDC cancellation. The week-long Summer Game Festival dropped 900 demos.
