For months, we've been asking why, if Valve is having so much trouble pricing and launching its new Steam Machine and Steam Frame VR headset, the brand doesn't get the ball rolling by releasing its new Steam Controller. Now, it seems like that might just be on the cards, as a new discovery on SteamDB hints that Valve is preparing to give us more information on the upcoming PC controller.
The SteamDB file was found by reliable VR leaker Brad Lynch (@SadlyItsBradley) on Twitter/X under the name "steam_controller_unboxing_2026", which seems to have been uploaded but not made publicly available yet. Any attempt to enter the SteamDB App ID code into the site's URL nav bar at the time of writing is met with a message telling you that "this video has not been processed for streaming".
