Following on from the success of the Steam Deck, Valve is creating its very own ecosystem of products. The Steam Frame, Steam Machine, and Steam Controller are all set to launch in the new year. We've tried each of them and here's what you need to know about each one.

"From the Frame to the Controller to the Machine, we're a fairly small industrial design team here, and we really made sure it felt like a family of devices, even to the slightest detail," Clement Gallois, a designer at Valve, tells me during a recent visit to Valve HQ. "How it feels, the buttons, how they react… everything belongs and works together kind of seamlessly."

For more detail, make sure to check out our in-depth stories linked below:

Steam Machine: Compact living room gaming box

Steam Controller: A controller to replace your mouse

So uh, ahem.

Yes.

Valve can indeed count to three.

No, the Steam Controller doesn't fully count. This is 2.5 at best.

And see how the Steam Frame only has two screens and not three?
