If I remember correctly Valve paid for this build system specifically for ARM support, so yeah I think that is going to happen.

They said all products will launched in all markets the Steam Deck currently ships in, and I believe their full list included Australia

Early leaks were pointing to a Alyx sequel, but I think the more recent leaks are pointing to it just being Half Life 3, which would presumably be playable on the Deck. Frame and the new Steam machine.

I mean I think better Linux SteamVR is a given since they are selling the new steam machine as an option for streaming to the Frame.

It is Deckard, from the looks of it won’t be as powerful as the steam deck but not because the ARM chip is slow. They said it is just because the effective TDP of the ARM chip (after subtracting all the work it is doing to track the headset and controllers and do the rendering) is like 7 watts, compared to the 15 watts of the steam deck. So you will probably still be able to run some of the more indie games on it. The translation later is also a 10-15% slow-down for CPU bound games, but they said should be negligible for GPU bound games.

I believe they mentioned that it is basically HDMI 2.1 but some features weren’t supported maybe 4:2:2 color, I don’t remember. I think they also mentioned they are working on fixing it so they can call it HDMI 2.1 but they aren’t sure if they can so they are just calling it 2.0 right now to be safe.

They actually already shipped that as a limited edition last year.
