Valve's new Steam Controller, successor to the 2015 model and inspired by Steam Deck prototypes, launches May 4 for $99 in the US ($149 CAD, €99 EU, £85 UK, A$149 AU, 419 PLN PL). Featuring dual touchpads, TMR thumbsticks, and a wireless Puck dongle, it offers precise PC gaming while escaping hardware delays affecting Steam Machine and Frame.
Valve has revealed it receives monthly price quotes from DRAM producers with no option to negotiate. The company must accept the terms or risk losing access to supply entirely. This affects the upcoming Steam Machine, which starts at $1,050.
