"Valve's $100 Steam Controller changed how I game on PC by letting me play my favorite RTS and CRPGs while reclining in my best impression of a Roman-era hedonist. Those who don't want to edit control schemes for every game they play will be ill at ease with the Steam Controller and should look elsewhere for a cheaper, more ergonomic gamepad."
"Unique to the Steam Controller are its two Steam Deck-like square trackpads that act as either a mouse or thumbstick alternative. It's this feature alone that makes this gamepad more versatile than even ones with swappable buttons like the 8BitDo Pro 3."
"The Steam Controller was designed for PC gaming, but more specifically, it's a component of Valve's PC/console hybrid, the Steam Machine, as well as its upcoming Steam Frame VR headset. The new Steam Controller offers a far more familiar design than the original from 2015."
The Steam Controller allows users to play PC games comfortably while reclining, featuring unique trackpads for versatility. It is not designed for casual gamers who prefer straightforward controls. Valve's focus is on making PC gaming more living room-friendly, integrating the controller with the Steam Machine and upcoming VR headset. The new design improves upon the original, aiming to provide a more familiar experience. Pricing and release details for the Steam Machine are anticipated soon.
