Last year, Valve — the company behind Steam, the world’s largest online game marketplace — surprised us all with the announcement of a standalone portable gaming PC. The device looks a lot like a Nintendo Switch but plays games from the Steam marketplace.
However, the Steam Deck, as it is known, faced an uphill battle for its launch (for obvious reasons). Valve eventually pushed back the launch date into this year. Now, the company has finally announced the new launch date: February 25, 2022.
