<\/a>Valve Steam Frame and controllers shown<\/p>\n

Updates on Valve\u2019s website hint that Steam Frame news is incoming. Revised packages for the VR headset could precede a release date and pre-order announcement. The Steam Machine experienced similar happenings ahead of its launch. <\/p>\n

Several positive signs have already pointed to impending Steam Frame release date<\/a> news. However, activity on the Valve backend<\/a> may be the most encouraging development yet. Updated packages for the VR headset<\/a> mirror changes seen shortly before the Steam Machine launch<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Valve dataminer Brad Lynch<\/a> shared how two packages saw their first revisions in many months. It\u2019s believed that up to 7 entries represent various configurations of the head-mounted display. These could include the confirmed 256GB and 1TB varieties, as well as SKUs with accessory kits<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The company made similar backend changes 6 days before Steam Machine pre-orders<\/a> opened on June 22nd. Ahead of its debut, the manufacturer was likely preparing the site to take reservations. Then, the Linux-powered console alternative left warehouses en route to buyers on June 29th.<\/p>\n

The pattern observed with the mini PC<\/a> suggests buyers should be able to claim the VR headset the week of September 7th. Other recent leaks from insiders have identified September 14th as the Steam Frame release date. <\/p>\n

Mounting evidence<\/p>\n

Brad Lynch joined an August 28th Gamertag VR podcast, where he said Steam Frame reviews<\/a> were already in progress. His sources hinted that by mid-September, Valve will start shipping the gear. The marketplace would barely meet its end-of-astronomical-summer deadline. <\/p>\n

Prior to the broadcast, dataminers noticed several new videos in the ARM version<\/a> of the Steam Client. The clips instructed owners on unboxing and adjusting the headset for a comfortable fit during VR gaming<\/a>. They also showcased accessories like the wireless adapter<\/a> and controller straps. Once again, the event mirrored leaks with the Steam Controller<\/a> and Machine. <\/p>\n

Fans can look to a series of imports<\/a> for hope that Valve has stockpiled enough units to satisfy Steam Frame pre-orders. Nevertheless, despite the same slow buildup with the Steam Machine, many buyers are still waiting for their systems. A higher-than-anticipated price<\/a> hasn\u2019t deterred gamers from committing to the cube.<\/p>\n
