Valve’s console-sized PC is nearing launch. New information indicates Valve is setting up a reservation system for their Steam Machine. This move appears to counter the issues faced during the Steam Controller release, which quickly sold out to scalpers. Four distinct Steam Machine models are hinted at, following clues found in a recent Steam update. Known models include a 512GB and a 2TB version, but details on two additional models are unknown. The reservation system aims to prioritize genuine buyers over scalpers, reflecting the strategy used with the Steam Controller. Despite previous delays due to cost issues, Valve now plans to release the Steam Machine, Steam Frame VR headset, and Steam Controller this year. Pricing details and an exact launch date remain uncertain, but recent updates suggest that Valve is making significant progress.
