A Steam Deck Hardware Refresh could be on the Horizon - Steam Deck News
645Today was a relatively light week in terms of Steam Deck news, but what we lacked in quantity we made up for in quality. This week, Bazzite released version 1.1 of their SteamOS-like operating system for x86 handhelds and it looks awesome. Plus, we have a new community-made mod for Starfield aiming to improve performance on Steam Deck. And Valve's latest commit to the Linux kernel reveals the potential for a new Steam Deck hardware refresh (or perhaps something else). All this in today's episode of Steam Deck news!
