4. Battlefield 1

We are staying somewhat in the same vein for our next entry. Here, we have Battlefield 1. At the same time, there have been releases following this title, namely Battlefield V & Battlefield 2042. The sheer quality of Battlefield 1 still shines through to this day. Players can experience the First World War through the game's visceral and immersive campaign or simply jump into multiplayer. The multiplayer component of the game has aged beautifully, with some of the best visual and auditory effects in the Battlefield franchise.

This is no small feat, either. As the series has always prided itself on the immersive experience it offers players. In addition to this, players can enjoy the wealth of content that has been added to the game, such as weapons and maps. In doing so, this adds more value to this deal, which is already at a wonderfully low price. The asking price for Battlefield 1 is currently $4 USD, making it a great time to pick the game up. To close, Battlefield 1 is one of the best Black Friday deals on Steam in 2023.

3. Sid Meier's Civilization VI

For our next entry on our list of the best Black Friday deals on Steam in 2023, here we have Sid Meier's Civilization VI. Taking quite the departure with our next entry, this game has players employ strategy on a grand scale. In doing so, players can control the ins and outs of their various empires. Each empire in the game comes with its own distinct strengths and weaknesses, greatly varying the experience as a whole. And, with the game being heavily discounted at $6 USD. There has never been a better time to jump into the game.

Through the game's Diplomacy systems, players are able to not only shape their experiences. But they can also have great control over their interactions with other nations. This diplomacy can see players employing spies in order to get the upper hand on other civilizations. Through this system and much more throughout the player's journey, they will raise a civilization that feels wholly unique to them. This is great.
