Valve announces three new devices, including a new Steam Machine, a new controller, and a VR headset

The Steam Machine is a small, box-shaped device that’s significantly more powerful than the Steam Deck – Valve says it’s six times faster, yet still runs quietly. It’s designed to play games at 4K resolution with a smooth 60 frames per second, powered by a custom AMD graphics card. Like the Steam Deck, it runs SteamOS and includes features like remote play, cloud saves, and a desktop mode. Importantly, it’s also a fully functional PC, meaning you can install and use any software and accessories you like. The trailer also shows that the front panel is easily customizable with different styles.
