It looks like the extra cash is a small price to pay for Valve’s portable gaming beast, as the Steam Deck has flown off the shelves once again.
According to a leaker, fans looking forward to Steam Machine being a cheap Linux-based gaming PC might want to temper their expectations.
PC gaming on the go just got a whole lot more expensive with both the 512 GB and 1 TB models seeing sharp price increases.
Komodo Station said that prices increased due to "rising logistic costs" and "fluctuations in the exchange rate environment."
The limited edition model will have the same specs as the 1TB OLED version of the device, and will also come with an exclusive white carrying case.
The Steam Deck has been used to play quite a few games over the last year, ranging from AAA RPGs to indie survival crafting games.
Valve's attempts at getting more games working on the Steam Deck seem to be going at a steady pace.
Steam Deck designer Jay Shaw says the team is "thinking about Steam Deck 2 at all times", but it could take a few years at least.
It features a 7.4-inch OLED display, a larger battery, Wi-Fi 6E for faster downloads and a lighter design than the current model.
