Yes, that's the whole reason behind these engineering builds, is to test manufacturing and see if there are any issues that need to be fixed. I've heard there are issues with the EV2 dev-kit hardware - are those fixed in the final version? Yes, we're sending dev-kits around the world, including regions that are not part of the initial Steam Deck launch. I'm a developer outside the countries where Steam Deck is being released - can I still get a dev-kit? If you don't have a dev-kit, you can test for Steam Deck compatibility with your own hardware, following the instructions here. That said, we won't have enough kits for every developer - we're looking at what titles players who have reserved a Steam Deck play the most, as well as general community interest - and prioritizing the developers of those titles for dev-kits. We are still looking at dev-kit requests and are about to send out a second wave of approvals - so if you haven't already submitted a hardware request here please make sure you do so. What's the status on dev-kit requests and how are you selecting who gets one? For answers to questions commonly asked by Deck customers, see.

The dock works as you would expect the dock with the Nintendo Switch works -it supports ethernet, DisplayPort and HDMI, 3x USB-A 3.1 ports, and weighs in at just 99 grams. On top of making the Steam Deck available to anyone that wants one, you'll also be able to purchase the dock alongside it. If you live in this region, you'll still need to make a reservation as shipments haven't been opened up yet. Unfortunately, the Steam Deck has not yet launched in Asia, although the company has set up a website currently taking pre-orders for the region. The booth offered visitors an experience like no other, with free gift bags featuring limited edition products and quality time with the console. Recently, the company took the console to Japan, debuting it at Tokyo Game Show 2022.
