My money is on Steam Controller 2, but what do I know.
-
Controller with 5ghz wifi? Hmm.
-
Yeah, wouldn't need that unless it was something more, I suppose. Either a super fancy controller or something else.
-
Fancy controller with embedded screen and CPU?
-
Don't be crazy.
-
-
Standalone VR!
-
Integrated Steam Link?
-
-
The steam controller 1 already has wifi, its not the only controller that does this, the nvidia shield controller also does. The standard these and a very few other controllers use is called wifi direct, and basically uses an adhoc network to connect. This is seamless for the user.
-
Sure. Isn't that 2.4ghz though?
-
I think it's unlikely that it's a controller, but the days of 2.4ghz only are long gone. Sure you can still cheap out on it, but it's not that expensive anymore. I could see a controller using a chipset that had it.

That's would be really neat for those of us with lots of wireless interference in the 2.4 GHz band. I can't even really use Bluetooth controllers for that reason.
-
Valve could be trying their own version of stadia / Luna. Doubtful though. Probably a vr device.
-
-
That would be a nice accessory for the Steamdeck
-
A new Steam Controller gamepad wouldn’t have an entire Steam Deck chip inside, though, so that seems less likely.
-
yeah the timing is right. I sorta figure they are planning on a sorta back and forth cadence between vr and handheld.
-
I sure hope so, I love my steam controller but it really could benefit from dual thumbsticks
-
This is what I want the most.
-
I hope that's the one. I had to connect the Steam Controller to my Deck though the Dock to play something on big screen and my fingers were fumbling for the difference in button layout and number. A Steam Controller 2 with the same layout as the Deck would be an instant wishlist topper
