Valve reconfirm the Steam Frame, Steam Machine and Steam Controller are due in 2026 - LibreTechni.ca

Frame I’m interested in. Controller I’m going to buy 100%

I want them all, but I don’t know which order to get them in. I have a PS5+VR2, a Quest 3, and a Steam Deck, so I’m thinking Steam Machine first, since it has a controller, I can stop buying newer games from PlayStation, and I might be able to use my PSVR2 with a PC adapter. Then get a Frame later on after we get an idea of how “spatial computing” develops on Linux, and maybe a pass-through getup becomes available for it.

But holy hell would I be happy to rid myself of Meta as soon as humanly possible.

The Steam Machine… Eh.

I have a gaming laptop a few years old that I installed Bazzite on and hooked into my TV. It works as my living room gaming PC already and feels like a Steam Machine already :)

Wakes up from my Xbox controller, sleeps and resumes games perfectly, etc.

I do not have a gaming laptop though, and if Steam Deck has taught me anything, it’s that a Machine from Steam will have unnaturally long relevance and pretty cool support from Linux enthusiasts.
