The Steam Machine, initially slated for a Q1 2026 release, experienced a delay to an unspecified date earlier this year. Despite this, Valve, the manufacturer, maintained that the PC-console hybrid was still on track for a 2026 launch. The revised target was then shifted to the first half of the year.

Translation to English:

The Steam Machine, initially targeting the first quarter of 2026, was pushed back earlier in the year to an indefinite date – even though maker Valve continued to insist that the PC-in-console-clothing remains on track for release in 2026. The new target instead shifted to the first half of the year.
