Video demo of Valve's game controller features

The Valve team involved in the development of Steam Machine has provided the first official video, which demonstrates the work of the new game controller Steam. It is worth noting that the video shows only the first prototype of such a controller, and in the future it is also going to add a touch screen.

New equipment for Valve is the basis for the future strategy of the company, whose task will be to provide users with a choice between several new gaming platforms, the key feature of which will be integrated support for the Steam online store and its own operating system Steam OS.

Some developers have already announced that they fully support Valve's initiatives in this direction and are going to add controller support to their game titles. At the moment, the device is supported by at least such games as Portal 2 and Civilization V. And controlling the controller, if you believe the video, is very, very convenient.

Closed beta testing of the prototypes of the Steam Machine gaming systems and the new Valve game controller will start in early 2014. If everything goes according to plan, then the company is going to conduct a mass release of the new platform in the same year.
