That comes in addition to being able to wirelessly stream games directly from a VR-ready PC at higher quality. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While we\u2019ve had the opportunity to go <a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/steam-frame-hands-on-valve-vr-headset-index-2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">hands-on with Steam Frame <\/a>following its unveiling last November, two of the biggest missing pieces of info are undoubtedly price and release date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If it\u2019s going to be anything like Steam Machine though, which launched at a not-so-friendly price starting at $1,050 last month, we\u2019re expecting somewhat of an initial sticker shock too. To Valve\u2019s credit, the company has been transparent about the fact that the <a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/steam-frame-ram-shortage-release-date-price\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">RAM and storage crisis has jacked up prices across the board<\/a>, although that doesn\u2019t make what could be a $1,000+ MSRP any easier to swallow.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for more Steam Frame news?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/steam-frame-hands-on-valve-vr-headset-index-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Valve Unveils Steam Frame VR headset to Make Your Entire Steam Library Portable<\/a>:\u00a0Valve shows off Steam Frame, the standalone headset that can stream and natively play your entire Steam library\u2014with only a few caveats right now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/steam-frame-hands-on-valve-vr-headset-index-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Hands-on: Steam Frame Reveals Valve\u2019s Modern Vision for VR and Growing Hardware Ambitions<\/a>:\u00a0We go hands-on with Valve\u2019s latest and greatest VR headset yet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/wp-admin\/valve-no-first-party-vr-game-in-development-half-life\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Valve Says No New First-party VR Game is in Development:<\/a>\u00a0Valve launched Half-Life: Alyx (2020) a few months after releasing Index, but no such luck for first-party content on Steam Frame.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/roadtovr.com\/valve-steamos-third-party-vr-headsets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Valve is Open to Bringing SteamOS to Third-party VR Headsets<\/a>: Steam Frame is the first VR headset to run SteamOS, but it may not be the last.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/valve-steam-frame-dev-kits-vr-studios\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Valve Plans to Offer Steam Frame Dev Kits to VR\u00a0Developers<\/a>: Steam Frame isn\u2019t here yet; Valve says it needs more time with developers first so they can optimize their PC VR games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/valve-steam-machine-controller-frame-compatibility\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Valve Announces SteamOS Console and New Steam Controller, Designed with Steam Frame Headset in Mind:<\/a>\u00a0Find out why Valve\u2019s new SteamOS-running Console and controller will work seamlessly with Steam Frame.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/steam-frame-vs-quest-3-specs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Steam Frame vs. Quest 3 Specs: Better Streaming, Power &amp; Hackability:<\/a>\u00a0Quest 3 can do a lot, but can it go toe-to-toe with Steam Frame?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roadtovr.com\/steam-frame-vs-valve-index-specs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Steam Frame vs. Valve Index Specs: Wireless VR Gameplay That\u2019s Generations Ahead :<\/a>\u00a0Valve Index used to be the go-to PC VR headset, but the times have changed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Valve hasn\u2019t mentioned the price or release date for its long-awaited Steam Frame standalone headset, although we seem&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":543058,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[61,60,80,210,211,212],"class_list":["post-543057","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-virtual-reality","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-technology","tag-virtual-reality","tag-virtualreality","tag-vr"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543057","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=543057"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543057\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/543058"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=543057"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=543057"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=543057"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
