Steam deck: The handheld

For several weeks it has become relatively quiet around the handheld PC Steam Deck. This has made some pre-ordered a bit nervous, which should actually be supplied in February 2022. But this uncertainty is unfounded, as Valve now assured.

The team has reported speaking in the context of a current status update and clarified that no further delay is to be expected. The current corona pandemic as well as the problems with the global supply chains would not change it. It is very precisely: The most important thing first: We can comply with the shipping plan for the Steam Deck. Despite the pandemic and delivery problems we can probably start the delivery of the equipment at the end of February.

Thus, all those buyers are likely to receive their copy of the Steam Deck, which have been at the first wave of pre-orders. Furthermore, Valve explained that numerous Developer Kits were sent to various developer studios in the past few weeks. These can now begin to test their games on the handheld PC and then obtain the certificate Verified for the Steam Deck.
