PC Valve already planning a Steam Deck 2

STEAM DECK 2

 

     Wasn't expecting this already although maybe I should've! Apparently the top tier model of the {OG 649.99} Steam Deck 1 is the most popular according to preorders. Looks like I may be further back in line than I though. Might be getting mine right as Pre-orders for the SD2 go up

Check your account. Mine now says Q3.

This was a given. Just don’t expect a 3

Well of course, no different than a ps5 being in the plans when ps4 released I would think.

I don’t think it was ever a guarantee, Valve has a habit of releasing a piece of hardware as a curiosity and then abandoning it forever because they heard keys jangling in the other room.

2.1, 2.2, then a VR headset 15 years later.

Well if the SD 2 is more than 649.99 I'm not interested. Don't know when I'm getting mine but I know I'm not opening it right away, yea right what the hell was I thinking. This Whole Steam Deck thing has had a welcome side effect. I mean the waiting in line for one obviously....lol I have really been playing alot of Switch and 3ds, and even some PS Vita. I love gaming gadgetry

God I hope not. Things are pointing in the direction that this deck 2 will power VR standalone.

They could, but they won't. Everyone needs to rethink what the metawhateveverse actually is.

So Index 2? Or Steam Deck combined with the Index?

Right? Besides, Steam Deck very possibly will be a relative success, and a revision probably won't come out for at least 2 years. I don't even see the Valve Index to get an upgrade until 2023 at the earliest.

 

What I could see is a Deck 2 being the hardware to power the Index for on-the-go VR Gaming, although technically speaking (looking at the requirements) the current Deck could run the Valve Index even. Wonder if anyone has tried the Index with the Steam Deck.

I wonder if they'd hold off for a RDNA3 based APU. Hopefully AMD doesn't go as slow as it did with the transition from Vega to RDNA. In fairness they probably can't now with intel.
