Valve offered a sentence of new guidance for Steam Frame shipments after blowing out the original early 2026 guidance offered late last year.
The new page on Valve’s Steam begins with the following sentence:
“Today we are expanding the Verified program to include Steam Machine and Steam Frame, both of which are shipping this summer.”
Summer begins June 21 and ends September 22 for Valve’s U.S.-based offices.
They’ll be sold out within 30min because scalpers.
It will sell out because there are only about 100k units (estimated based on shipping records). If the Steam Machine was $700, millions of people will want it. Now even though it’s going to be a lot more expensive (I think $1200~$1500 is the expected range), there will still be a lot more than 100k people wanting it.
