Summary
Leaks point to a Steam Machine debut around June 23, with one source saying Valve's review embargo lifts that day and the launch could fall between June 22 and July 1.
Valve has only promised a summer release, so the reported date would bring the standalone console-PC hybrid to market earlier than many expected.
Hardware sourcing and surging memory prices had clouded the timetable, with Valve previously appearing unsure it could ship the device before year-end.
Price expectations remain high: earlier estimates were near $800, while newer reports suggest the Steam Machine could cost more than $1,000 if it launches this month.
