The Steam Deck It was one of the most anticipated console releases in recent years when it officially launched this February. The portable platform that gives fans access to their Steam libraries on the go has consistently added new compatible games since its debut.
The demand for the console has been so great that Valve it sells the platform through a pre-order system in which fans secure a console to be shipped at a later date. Now Valve is reportedly looking to the future with new versions of the device already being planned.
In an eBook posted on Steam earlier this week about the success of the Steam Deck, Valve confirmed that the developer intends to “continue” Steam Deck with new “improvements and iterations”. The post even revealed that Valve views its Steam Deck similarly to other major consoles, regarding the Steam Deck as a “multi-generational product.”
The Steam Deck it was Valve’s first big foray into the console market, while Steam has become one of the biggest online game stores since its debut in 2005.
The eBook takes an in-depth look at the development of the Steam Deck and some of the hardware and design choices that went into creating the device. Game developers have praised the Steam Deck for being an easy-to-use platform, while fans and critics have confirmed that the Steam Deck is more powerful than the similar Nintendo Switch.
Valve also talks in the eBook about how the company built the Steam Deck to be easily repairable and flexible with its peripherals. The developer references some players connecting devices like VHS players and GBA cameras to the Steam Deck.
