Built for Steam Deck owners who travel with more than just the handheld, the structured case organizes the console, dock, two Steam Controllers and supporting gear for big-screen gaming away from home. Handcrafted in San Francisco, the SteamPack combines full-grain leather with WaterField’s clean, understated approach to gaming gear.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — WaterField Designs today introduced the SteamPack, a structured Steam Deck case designed to solve a portability gap: The handheld travels easily, but the dock, controllers, power brick and cables that turn it into a full gaming setup do not. The SteamPack brings those components together in dedicated storage, making the complete setup easier to take to a hotel, friend’s home or other destination.

The SteamPack scales up WaterField’s SwitchPack for Nintendo Switch concept for the larger Steam Deck ecosystem. Rather than pare down a home setup for travel, gamers can bring the hardware and accessories that turn solo handheld play into a big-screen session on a hotel TV, a friend’s monitor or whatever display is waiting at the destination.
“The Steam Deck is easy to carry, but the accessories add up quickly,” said Gary Waterfield, company founder. “We wanted the SteamPack to make the whole setup feel portable, with a place for the Deck, dock, controllers and smaller pieces so it all arrives organized and ready to use.”
The Steam Deck rests in a plush-lined compartment, with an Ultrasuede® liner on the console-facing side to protect the screen and double as a built-in screen cleaner. Two plush pockets hold Steam Controllers separately, while a custom-sized padded pocket between the console and controllers fits the power brick and HDMI cord. Separating these larger components helps prevent them from shifting against one another in transit.
The Steam Deck Dock has its own compartment beneath a full-grain leather flap with magnetic closure, while a rear zippered mesh pocket keeps Steam Controller Pucks and microSD cards contained and easy to find. Full-grain leather wraps the bottom and sides for added protection. A stitched and riveted leather-wrapped handle supports hand carry, waterproof YKK zippers provide weather-resistance, and D-ring attachment points accommodate an optional removable Sling Strap.
