182 Please Let These Steam Controller 2 Leaks Be True

Colette & Matt Have Entered the Chat

A credible leaker claims Valve is in the final stages of manufacturing a new Steam Controller, a device that the community has been clamoring for, especially after the Steam Deck's rise to hardware stardom. The dream controller (codenamed "Ibex") will hopefully have two track pads, two thumb sticks, and buttons on the back, bringing parity with the Deck itself. The leaker also hints at new developments for Valve's long-rumored standalone VR headset, "Deckard." We discuss what we want from these devices in the near future.

Also: Final Fantasy 14 on telephones? And what would the gaming landscape look like if Sony bought souls-maker From Software?

Plus: Colette shares the treasure trove of cooking games she got from Steam's recent sale.
