Valve: Steam Machine and Steam Frame are coming this summer | Infinium-tech
In a brief blog, Valve confirmed that the Steam Machines and Steam Frame devices, which were announced in November last year, are coming this summer. However, the blog post was about the verified program.
The blog post itself is aimed at developers and announces that Steam Machine and Steam Frame are being included in the verified program. The said program launched with the Steam Deck and allows users to learn how the game runs on the handheld before purchasing.
According to Valve, the Steam Machine’s requirements to receive the Verified badge will be almost identical to those of the Steam Deck. For the Steam Frame VR headset, the Verified badge will represent an out-of-the-box, standalone experience without connecting the device to external hardware.
Unfortunately, there’s nothing new other than “coming this summer.” The price is also unknown, but people familiar with the matter suggest that we will not like the starting price due to the ever-rising prices of memory chips. We’ve already seen Valve increase prices, restocking the Steam Deck for $789 or $949, ​​depending on configuration. That’s a huge increase of $300.
