Steam Deck maker Valve will support rival handhelds, including the Asus ROG Ally, with a build of SteamOS that can be installed on them.
Valve once imagined that every PC maker could have their own 'Steam Machine,' a PC game console running the company's Linux-based SteamOS. It took a decade for that dream to evolve into the company's own internally developed Steam Deck gaming handheld, but the original dream isn't dead.
That doesn't mean Asus will officially bless Valve's installer or sell the Ally with SteamOS, of course. And it's not like Valve is suggesting it'll offer SteamOS for rival handhelds anytime soon, either. Valve is “making steady progress,” Yang tells me, but it “isn’t ready to run out of the box yet.
