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.

Any ideas on Linux support?

    pretty sure it’s SteamOS, an Arch Linux derivative, on a fairly popular Snapdragon platform. probably not too difficult to hack on it.

    It days right in the marketing text that the headset is "a PC" which to me implies full SteamOS distro with no limitations on installing a different OS, if you can get the many hardware drivers to work.
