"Valve won't talk about a Steam Deck 2. It probably wants to keep the attention on its just-announced living room console, comfy new controller, and Arm-based headset instead. But now that the company is preparing to sell an Arm headset, one that can even run Android apps, there's an obvious question. Is Arm a one-off experiment for Valve, or might it power future SteamOS hardware?"
"I don't want to oversell what he said - he was excited about the potential, not any specific devices, and you'll see that in more context when we publish the interview later this week. But when I ask whether he thinks there'll be other SteamOS devices with Arm chips, he says the answer is yes, and that he's excited about it."
Valve is preparing to sell an Arm-based headset that can run Android apps. Valve is keeping focus on a newly announced living-room console, a redesigned controller, and the Arm headset while avoiding comment on a Steam Deck 2. SteamOS on Arm is being positioned to extend to ultraportables, more powerful Arm-based laptops, handhelds, and possibly desktop-class Arm chips. Company engineers express excitement about the potential for diverse Arm devices. Broader industry moves, including reported Arm work from other chipmakers, could influence which Arm-based SteamOS devices appear next.
