Summary
June 30 is the launch date for Valve’s Steam Machine, with buyers selected at random and notified during the week of June 29.
Reservations remain open until June 25 at 10 a.m. PT, with Valve limiting sign-ups to one per household and requiring a Steam account in good standing that made a purchase before April 27.
Pricing starts at $1,049 for a 512GB model without a controller, while a $1,428 version adds 2TB of storage, a Steam Controller and two extra faceplates.
Both models use a semi-custom AMD Zen 4 6-core chip and RDNA3 graphics, plus 16GB DDR5, 8GB GDDR6 VRAM, Wi-Fi 6E and SteamOS 3 in a roughly 6-inch cube.
The reservation system follows Valve’s earlier warning of limited availability and is designed to screen out bots while distributing the first batch more fairly.
