Valve teases new hardware that challenges the tech giants
Awesome launch from VALVE. Really exciting to follow whether they can become a real player and competitor to Microsoft (and Sony, Meta and …)
TL;DR
Valve just dropped a 2026 hardware bombshell: Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame are on the way. Built to supercharge your Steam library, they’re pitched as the next big leap after Steam Deck.
Summary
Valve announced three new Steam devices for 2026: the Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame. The company says they are optimized for Steam, similar to the Steam Deck, and designed to help players get more from their existing Steam libraries.
