The global supply chain problems and chip shortages that continue at full speed around the world have also hit Valve’s portable game system, Steam Deck. The release of Steam Deck will be delayed by two months due to component shortages and the inability of components to reach production facilities in a timely manner.

According to new estimates, Steam Deck will begin to arrive in buyers’ hands in February 2022. Of course, this only applies to those who pre-order. Those who do not pre-order will certainly have to wait much longer. Valve announced on its website that it will update the distribution dates shortly.

As it will be remembered, Nintendo also announced that it would reduce Switch production by 20 percent due to the same problems.

  • Why Is There a Chip Problem, How to Solve It?

Steam Deck can be described as a handheld gaming device that packs a lot of power for a small size. Valve states that the device will run high-end games smoothly at high-end settings. The quad-core eight-thread CPU and RDNA 2 1.6 Tflops GPU are accompanied by 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM. The Steam Deck also has a microSD card slot for expansion. In other words, it is possible to define the Steam Deck as a small and powerful gaming computer rather than a console.
