Valve opened Steam Frame pre-orders with two storage configurations. Base price $1,059 and includes standalone Half-Life: Alyx.
Valve have sometimes – if perhaps not often enough to call it a grand old tradition – massaged interest in their hardware by pairing the kit with a new game. For the Steam Deck it was Aperture Desk Job, and for 2019’s jammy sod of a VR headset, the Valve Index, it was Half-Life: Alyx,…
Valve has officially announced the pricing and details of the Steam Frame, its next-gen wireless VR headset succeeding the Valve Index.
Much like the Steam Machine, Valve’s Steam Frame VR headset feels like a device that should have shipped five years ago.

That’s changing now, as a slip-up has revealed more than half a dozen tutorial videos…
Valve’s long-rumored Steam Frame VR headset will be launching soon, according to a VR game developer. The studio and its publisher, 2080 Games, are reportedly waiting on Valve to officially release the headset before launching their title, with an announcement expected soon.
If you’ve been holding out on buying Valve’s ludicrously expensive home console, you may have saved yourself from more than an empty wallet. European customers who ordered a Steam Machine or Steam Controller may be the victims of a personal information data breach after one of Valve’s hardware distribution partners was hit by a cyberattack.
