Effect On Key Questions

  • Price: no change. Steam Frame still has no public price.
  • Release date: no change. Steam Frame still exposes only Coming soon.
  • Same-time launch: already ruled out. Today does not change Frame readiness.

Next Checks

  • Continue Frame-first checks of SteamKit/PICS and Valve appdetails / packagedetails.
  • Watch for any movement in Frame app 4165890 or packages 1629484, 1629486.
  • If Komodo Frame timestamp moves again, diff raw JSON and sections/media before treating it as staging.
  • Keep watching whether June 24 VR shipment rows are followed by public package/API movement.
