Hope no one minds me asking here, but does anyone have any suggestion for games on sale that a 13 year old boy might like? Need a cool uncle gift for the nephew

Edit: thank y'all for the replies!

Need for speed heat is like 4 bucks, as a former 13yo boy I woulda liked it

Make a family and add them to it. They'll get access to your entire library. As account manager you can hide any games you think are inappropriate.

I'm sharing with my brother who has 4 sons and it has been great for everyone.

I love how they changed library sharing, too, so group members are only accessing individual games rather than entire libraries.

You can do that‽ Oh hell yeah. Cool uncle status achieved!

Any hints what kind of games they're into? Racing, sports, shooters? My nephew mostly plays fortnite, he's easy and happy with vbucks.

Honestly? Not really. I haven't seen them in about 4 years, and the last I really checked in one was super into reading fantasy novels and the other one like Lego. Lol. They're family friends, not children of siblings.

Teardown might be a good one.

Deadcells is one I enjoyed and my brother enjoyed. Lots of content and very fun.

Dead Cells: The leading cause of gamepad breakages among PC players. 9 out of 10 ninjas agree.

Here are some cool/memorable games:

  • Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
  • Return of the Obra Dinn
  • Braid

Satisfactory. If they like Minecraft they'll like this
