Pavel Djundik, the developer of SteamDB, yesterday explained the terms he discovered in the latest version of Steam software and said valve may be working on a game console. This game console is named After SteamPal or Neptune.
ArsTechnica has new information on this, valve is actually working on a console, but this is a Switch-like, PC-based portable handheld console.
This device, which has the codename SteamPal, is actually a PC; it has gamepad controls and a touch screen. So you can think of it as a Nintendo Switch without joy-cons.
Linux will be the operating system on the console, and the most important information is that this console has been in development for a long time and is expected to be released at the end of this year. The console will also have a USB-C port to transfer the image to a TV or large monitor.
There are actually similar gaming devices on the market right now, especially from China. For example, one of the first things that comes to mind is GPD and Aya Neo. SteamPal will follow a similar path anyway, the chipset in it will be Intel or AMD, not Nvidia.
There is no information such as screen size, resolution, memory, storage capacity; But now that the information is spreading, we can expect Valve to make an official statement on these matters.
