Steam Controller
Published:
🕹️ Valve will ship the Steam Controller ahead of the Steam Machine, not marketing, but a CRISIS in component prices.
Engineer Steve Cardinali says the pad doesn't use RAM, so it's much easier to start production while mini‑PCs and the VR headset (Steam Frame) are held up. Valve announced the lineup in Nov 2025 and delayed launches; the controller goes on sale 4 May. They're still polishing the Steam Machine and Steam Deck 2
