Valve Steam Controller now official

by on06 March 2015


Coming in November for $50

Valve has officially revealed the final design of the Steam Controller, which will go on sale in November with a price tag of $49.99.

The picture of the Steam Controller final design has been posted over at Valve's official Steam site and while we already had a chance to see quite a few prototypes, we must say that the final version does look a whole lot better.

In addition to the official picture of the Steam Controller, Valve also released full details and specifications. The Steam Controller will have dual trackpads, as Valve calls them, and the earlier D-pad cluster has now been replaced with an analog thumbstick, something that those coming from Playstation and Xbox will certainly appreciate.

The Steam Controller also comes with dual-stage triggers, which Valve describes as triggers that can be used as digital, analog or both types of input at the same time. It also features "HD haptics" or force actuators on both sides of the controller which should "deliver precise, high fidelity vibrations measures in microseconds."

In case you missed it earlier, Valve's Steam Controller will officially be available in November for $49.99, alongside Valve's new Steam Machines and Steam Link streaming device.
