Valve has confirmed that both its Steam Machine console-like PC and Steam Frame VR headset will ship this summer. The announcement came in a blog post that also detailed updates to the company's Verified program for the new devices.
Valve stated in the post that it is expanding the Verified program to cover the Steam Machine and Steam Frame. Both products are scheduled to ship during the summer period. The company provided no further details on exact release dates or pricing. It noted that the Steam Machine offers six times the power of the Steam Deck, though this could affect costs. The Verified program will test games for compatibility on the new hardware in a manner similar to its current Steam Deck process. Titles that perform better on the Steam Machine or Steam Frame may receive specific badges. Valve referenced its past games such as Half-Life and Portal in the announcement but offered no new information on those titles.
