# Steam Hardware Watch Status
Last updated: `2026-04-26`
Last updated: `2026-04-28`
## Best Current Answer
- `Price`: no confirmed public price leak for the new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, or Steam Frame.
- `Release date`: official Valve store pages now support a broad `early 2026` / `coming in 2026` window, but no exact preorder, ship, or launch date was found.
- `Same-time launch`: stronger than the seeded baseline for a shared public rollout window because Valve's official Steam Hardware page groups Controller, Machine, and Frame together. Exact same-day availability is still unconfirmed, and the controller remains furthest along.

Exact same-day availability is still unconfirmed, and the controller remains furthest along because the fresh Komodo movement is still controller-only.

- `wishlist-only`
- On `2026-04-24`, Komodo bulk-updated product records for all three hardware lines across currencies.
- Also on `2026-04-24`, Komodo exposed a fresh controller-only section and media rollout with banner, videos, feature art, controls imagery, and a spec image.
- Rechecked on `2026-04-26`: product modified timestamps remain `2026-04-24T15:12:12` for Controller, `2026-04-24T14:32:54` for Machine, and `2026-04-24T14:33:36` for Frame.
- Rechecked on `2026-04-28`: the Controller product modified timestamp moved to `2026-04-28T18:32:11`; Machine and Frame remain at `2026-04-24T14:32:54` and `2026-04-24T14:33:36`.
- No comparable fresh Machine or Frame section and media rollout was found. Machine and Frame still only show older wishlist sections in the current Komodo search output.
- Komodo added a new Controller section, `Steam Controller - 10 Specs`, modified `2026-04-27T09:41:01`.
- Komodo updated the Controller `09 Spec image` section on `2026-04-28T19:05:51`, adding two new AVIF media records plus their generated sizes.
- Visual asset retrieval is now complete for the current Komodo set: `130` discovered and `130` retrieved. The browsable library contains `11` videos, `11` images, `3` logos, `3` poster frames, `42` thumbnails, and `60` variants.
### SteamDB
- Browser-verified SteamDB state on `2026-04-26`:
- `Steam Controller` app `4165870` remains `prerelease` with store release date `Coming soon`.
- `steam_controller_unboxing_2026` app `4653940` remains a released free video app, first seen on `2026-04-20`, with package `1620489` available as free on demand and showing `No Price`.
- The standard curl helper was blocked by SteamDB, so browser-style verification is the current usable path.
- The standard curl helper was still blocked by SteamDB on `2026-04-28`, so browser-style verification remains the current usable path.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- A fresh SteamTracking checkout on `2026-04-26` still includes controller onboarding, firmware update flow, puck handling, and pairing logic for the new controller ecosystem.
- A fresh SteamTracking checkout on `2026-04-28` still includes controller onboarding, firmware update flow, puck handling, and pairing logic for the new controller ecosystem.
- Pairing-focused hits include `ibex_internal`, `ibex_external`, `PairDongleTritonConnected`, `PairDongleTritonDocked`, and `ShouldTritonPairInOobe`.
### Valve Support / CDN
- Official Valve store pages were reachable and saved:
- `/sale/hardware` says the Steam Hardware family expands in early 2026, lists Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame, and was modified at `2026-04-26T06:06:01Z` in the embedded event metadata.
- `/sale/steamcontroller` has a dedicated Steam Controller page and was modified at `2026-04-26T06:05:47Z` in the embedded event metadata.
- Official Valve store pages were reachable and saved on `2026-04-28`:
- `/sale/hardware` still says the Steam Hardware family expands in early 2026, lists Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame, and its embedded event metadata now shows `rtime32_last_modified` `2026-04-28T10:09:22Z`.
- `/sale/steamcontroller` has a dedicated Steam Controller page and its embedded event metadata now shows `rtime32_last_modified` `2026-04-28T18:31:12Z`.
- The embedded Steam Hardware submenu now points to cleaner `/hardware`, `/hardware/steamcontroller`, `/hardware/steammachine`, and `/hardware/steamframe` paths instead of the older `/sale/...` paths.
- No official Valve price, exact release date, or preorder date was found.
