Fanatical recently did a Bundlefestive event where they launched multiple new game bundles, and so you can grab some easy treats here. I'll go over a bunch and give you their Steam Deck Verified rating, plus ProtonDB and any Native Linux to help you decide and each title will be a Steam link for more info.
Like their Prestige Collection - Winter Special 2023 where you can grab some big games together for cheap split across 2 for £14.99, 3 for £21.99, 5 for £34.99 and 7 for £47.99. So if you went for 7 top games it would work at around £6.86 each, not bad for some big names here!
Here's the games included:
DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR'S CUT - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Gold
Ghostwire: Tokyo - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Gold
Control Ultimate Edition - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Platinum
Disco Elysium - The Final Cut - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Gold
The Forgotten City - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Platinum
Necromunda: Hired Gun - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Gold
Bzzzt - Deck Verified / Linux Native
DYSMANTLE - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Platinum
Spin Rhythm XD - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Platinum
Homebody - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Platinum
Gordian Quest - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Platinum
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Platinum
RESIDENT EVIL 3 - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
A Plague Tale: Innocence - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Platinum
Fallout 76: The Pitt Deluxe Edition - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Platinum
Ghostrunner - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Platinum
GreedFall - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
The Entropy Centre - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Platinum
SPRAWL - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Platinum
Hammerwatch II - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Platinum
Assetto Corsa Competizione - Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
So go and check out the Fanatical Prestige Collection - Winter Special 2023 if any of those in that list jump out at you.
Their Killer Bundle 28 is a pretty good deal too that includes PREY, Mortal Shell, Chronicon, Kingdom New Lands and more. I also previously went over the Bandai Namco Collection which is not to be missed!
Fanatical also have a big Winter Sale now on too!
But now being serious, what I don't really get... How are these deals even possible? How can be the websites about these deals legit? I mean 3€ for 3 games that cost around 70€... What the heck!
Anyone with a good theory or knowledge about how this exactly works? I'd really love to know how can I be paying an incredible deal for this amount. I can't believe it, getting games at this price is a no-brainer. Where the heck is the catch?

What the heck!In the case of the legitimate key-sellers like Fanatical, it's down to sheer buying-power - and I presume that's also why they sometimes have lower prices than Steam itself during sales, as well.
