14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.71/day in the week to Aug 26 → 0.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak is an excellent real-time strategy game. As a *Homeworld* prequel, it employs similar gameplay mechanics but on a smaller scale, shifting the action to a planetary surface—though this is by no means a drawback. The mothership and other units fit harmoniously into the overall concept. The desert setting looks stunning—even fantastic—with its dunes and rock formations blending together perfectly without feeling gimmicky. I recommend playing this game to better understand the *Homeworld* lore, or simply because it is a fantastic game in its own right. Personally, the only downside for me is that the enemy isn't tied to resource gathering and simply churns out units; consequently, there is no real race for resources—except in one specific mission, and even that is driven by the plot.
Now, this title in the HomeWorld franchise, was a bit short, but it still had a great storyline regardless

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 11: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

ES UNA JOLLA OCULTA, ESPERO QUE EL EQUIPO QUE ISO ESTE JUEGO ESTE MUY ORGULLOSO DE ESTE JUEGO, CUANDO LO JUGUE NO QUISE PARARAR HASTA QUE LO TERMINE
Fantastic up to this point, graphics are great, its hard as nails at times. I love the cinematic cameras and the voice acting is immersive! the intercom chat is top tier, never heard something as good. I would reccomend this to those who enjoyed homeworld 1 and 2!
Gostei da história e o jogo pode ser muito divertido e difícil dependendo de suas escolhas
Гра чудова, рекомендую! Навіть із плином часу.

Отличная игра, не жалею что взял набор из "Deserts of Kharak" и "Remastered Collection" любителям ртс точно зайдёт! Из интересных механик хотелось бы отдельно выделить единую армию, из боя в бой(сюжетка) значки, карты, достижения, катсцены и прочие приятные мелочи также присутствуют. Одним словом ценителям ртс стратегий рекомендую попробовать, тем более, что данные игры пока что не имеет достойных аналогов
Cool vibe RTS. On sale, great buy.
