  • Valve President Gabe Newell discusses the importance of the Steam Deck's price and its development. This is only a portion of our full interview with Newell, which will be published later this month along with even more Steam Deck coverage.
    The Steam Deck, is a handheld gaming PC with a form-factor similar to that of a Nintendo Switch. No hard release date has been given, but the Steam Deck has a launch planned for Holiday 2021, with a pre-order reservation system launching in the near future. The price starts at $399, with models that have more storage at $529 and $649 as well.

The Switch OLED by the way, is not the Switch Pro as it has no hardware upgrades. The Nintendo Switch Pro never existed, it was just a rumour to start false hope, like most rumours do.
