Latest News:  steam deck

Last year, Valve announced that it would release the Steam Deck in February 2022. The company wanted to ship the first batch of its handheld console last year, but supply issues slowed things down. Now, Valve has confirmed the actual release date.

If there's one issue that's plagued (heh!) companies in 2021, it would have to be the production delays caused by the pandemic. This time, Valve is the company that has will have to delay shipment for its big product for the year - the Steam Deck.

Handheld consoles have been popular options for gamers. In particular, the Nintendo Switch is a popular choice for many around the world. For PC gamers, the Steam Deck will probably be just as famous. But like the Switch, you probably shouldn't upgrade the insides.

When Valve first announced the Steam Deck back in July, some people were concerned with how well it would perform. Soon after, Valve's Pierre-Loup Griffais claimed that it could hit at least 30FPS in most games. And it looks like Valve has made good on that promise.

One device that's been making waves for gamers lately is definitely the Steam Deck. Valve has opened reservations for the device, but it's not going to be out till late next year. In the meantime, the company is thinking about adding more colour varieties.

When the Steam Deck was announced recently, some people question if the hardware powerful enough. Unlike Nintendo games, a lot of PC games on Steam require very powerful PC specs. However, a Valve executive claims that there will be a minimum fps.

Today, Valve made a surprise announcement on a new handheld gaming console that we never saw it coming. Dubbed as the Steam Deck, it's a portable gaming console just like the Nintendo Switch but filled with video games that are available on Steam. The starting price is $399 (~RM1676) and it's scheduled to ship by the end of the year.
