This year's CES saw the announcement of the first third-party device "Powered by Steam OS", the Legion Go S, and if Valve has its way it certainly won't be the last. The Linux-based operating system has been in development at Valve since 2012, though what really catapulted it into peoples' hands was the success of Steam Deck.
Pierre-Loup Griffais is one of the Valve developers dedicated to SteamOS, and told French site Frandroid "we’ve come a long way behind the scenes”. He's been working on the project since its very beginnings, and says the focus at the moment is on compatibility: "All of this work is broadly applicable to the PC platform, and it’s going to continue to expand over time. Supporting multiple platforms, multiple chipsets, controllers for different machines that are out there and even ones that aren’t out yet."
