Valve to ship 'more than double' the number of Steam Decks each week

By - | Views: 27,476

As we say goodbye to Q2 and hello to Q3, Valve has confirmed that production of Steam Deck units has increased to the point where they're going to be sending out a lot more.

Today is one of the usual days for emails to go out (so check your inbox) and Thursday is the other day where it happens. From this Thursday (30th June), things will be just a bit different. Confirming the details on Twitter, the official OnDeck account said:

Hello! Some great news on the production front. We just sent the last batch of Q2 emails, and we’ll start sending Q3 reservation emails on the 30th. Production has picked up, and after today we'll be shipping more than double the number of Steam Decks every week!

You can check your reservation status on the official Steam Deck page. Also don't worry if you miss your email, you do get another chance to get a Steam Deck.

Designer Lawrence Yang, who recently warned people about certain SSD upgrades, also mentioned on Twitter:

We’re looking forward to getting more Steam Decks into your hands! As you may imagine it’s pretty difficult to make hardware right now, and the team has been kicking ass behind the scenes to keep Steam Deck production ramping.

Something I haven't seen mentioned anywhere, is that you don't only get an email, you also get a big notification upon opening Steam (including a pop-up window with a checkbox that must be checked in order to stop it opening each time Steam opens). So if you run Steam with any regularity you've got a good chance of seeing that notification even if you forget to check your email regularly.

Quoting: WorMzyJust got my reservation fulfilled too. Wasn't expecting to get 68 Steam Sale cards from the transaction!
And 67,000 Steam points.
