The Steam Machine Was Originally Meant to Cost About $750

Valve Says the Steam Machine Saw a Similar Price Increase as the Steam Deck, Which Means It Was Originally Supposed to Cost About $750

Edit: fixed the title to match the article, I wrongly stated that Valve said the price was supposed to be $750, when that’s just IGN’s estimate base on Valve’s statements.

Yea… That was then.

If they had planned to have the machine at 750, then we can extrapolate from that a frame cost. Up from around 900.

      I feel like 1200-1300 was probably likely before the price bump.
