Valve Announces New Steam Machine, Steam Controller and Steam Frame for release in 2026. There is an image of a Steam Controller, which looks like a hybrid between the original Steam Controller and the layout and trackpads of the Steam Deck.

The Machine will apparently be about the price of "an entry level PC".

The Frame will "not cost more than the Index".

    Not more than the index is a low bar considering it's about the most expensive of the mainstream headsets

    Literally every VR headset released this year is over 1k usd. Only meta (and now valve) care about budget headsets

    The only ones that released this year are enthusiast premium brands, unless I'm missing any. Last year had the quest and the HTC which I'll admit I was wrong about, I thought it was lower than exactly 1k
