In a move that will be hugely disappointing to a lot of PC gamers, Valve has pushed back the “estimated order windows” for Steam Controller reservations to at least September, with some prospective buyers even seeing their estimated order date delayed until 2027. In a new post on its website, Valve has admitted that “initial demand exceeded our expectations” and that in order to “manage expectations as much as we can” it has implemented this new system with these long estimated delivery times. Valve’s new system means that if you sign up for a spot in the Stream Controller order queue system (or already have a place on it), you’ll be presented with one of three estimated order windows. The earliest date you’ll be given for potentially getting the best PC controller is September 2026, with the next window set for December 2026, and the final window simply marked as some time in 2027.
