"Valve is returning to the console business with a new iteration of the Steam Machine, a PC/console hybrid that runs SteamOS, supports gaming at 4K, 60fps, and packs up to 2TB of SSD storage. Ostensibly, the Steam Machine is the home console version of the Steam Deck, just six times as powerful, the company claims. Valve's PC/console hybrid will launch in early 2026, alongside a new family of Steam hardware that includes a new controller and the next-generation Steam VR headset."
"Curiously, Valve has not shared pricing for the Steam Machine, the controller, and the VR headset yet. The new Steam hardware family will launch in early 2026, Valve said. The Steam Machine, controller, and Steam Frame headset will ship in the same regions Valve currently ships the Steam Deck, which means the US, Canada, the UK, EU, and Australia. The new family of Steam hardware will also be available in regions covered by Komodo, which include Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan."
Valve is returning to the console market with a new Steam Machine, a PC/console hybrid running SteamOS that supports 4K, 60fps gaming and offers up to 2TB SSD storage. Valve claims the Steam Machine is the home-console equivalent of the Steam Deck and about six times as powerful. The device launches early 2026 alongside a new Steam Controller and the Steam Frame VR headset. Models include 512GB and 2TB configurations and will ship bundled with the new controller, though both will be sold separately. The Steam Machine allows users to install any operating system, including Windows. Pricing has not been announced. Official availability will match Steam Deck regions and additional Komodo markets.
