A new Steam Controller has been discovered to contain a hidden Easter egg that causes it to emit a scream when dropped.

Valve has released information regarding the availability, pricing, and retailers for its new Steam Controller, providing details for prospective buyers.

An analysis suggests that while the $99 price tag for the Steam Controller might seem expensive at first glance, its value proposition makes it a worthwhile investment.

Following overwhelming initial demand and a near-instantaneous sell-out, Valve is opening a reservation queue for the Steam Controller to manage future sales and alleviate user frustration.

Reviews for the Steam Controller are being published, with some suggesting improvements over previous iterations. Meanwhile, Valve is reportedly waiting for the right price point before widely releasing its Steam Machine.

Valve announced that its Steam Controller sold out much faster than anticipated, leading to scalpers reselling the device at inflated prices, and has now provided an official update regarding future stock availability.

It is uncertain if it will come to Norway.

Valve has provided updates on its hardware initiatives, confirming the price and release date for the Steam Controller. The company also stated it is actively working on Steam Deck 2, though a release window has not yet been announced.
