Valve's highly anticipated white Steam Deck is finally here! Available as a limited edition OLED model, this coveted console launches globally on November 18th, 2024, at 3 PM PST. Priced at $679 USD, the "Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White" will be a hot commodity.
This exclusive release will be distributed worldwide, including regions like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Australia. However, Valve emphasizes that stock is limited and allocated proportionally per region.
