""We're hard at work on it," Valve programmer Pierre-Loup Griffais said to IGN. "If you look at our hardware projects over the years, you can draw a straight line from the original Steam Controller and Steam Machine to Steam Deck, to everything that we're announcing and shipping this year.""
""We're not interested in getting to a point where it's 20 or 30 or even 50% more performance at the same battery life," Griffais stated, emphasizing that Valve has a "pretty good idea" of what the next Steam Deck will be."
"Due to rising memory and storage costs driven by increased demand from AI and data-center companies, manufacturers have had to increase the prices of their units."
"Reviews for the new $100 Steam Controller are off to a positive start, indicating that it may be worth its high price tag."
Valve is actively working on a Steam Deck 2 handheld gaming PC, but a release window is not yet available. The company is also focused on other devices like the Steam Machine and Steam Controller. Valve aims for the Steam Deck 2 to be a meaningful upgrade rather than a minor performance increase. Rising costs of memory and storage have affected pricing and availability of gaming devices, leading to delays in product launches. Positive reviews have emerged for the new Steam Controller.
