Steam Deck OLED Price Increase Announced Due to “Rising Memory and Storage Costs”

The popular Steam Deck OLED is available again! However, there’s a catch: due to increasing costs for memory and storage, the 512 GB and 1 TB versions now cost significantly more.

If you’re thinking of buying this device, be prepared for a price increase. The 512 GB version now costs $789, a jump of $240 from its previous price of $549. The 1 TB model is also more expensive, at $949 – up $300 from $649. While many expected a price hike, these increases are still significant.

Valve explains the price increase is linked to the original supply shortages. It will be interesting to see how gamers react to the new prices and whether sales are affected. This also raises questions about the Steam Machine, which has already been delayed and is now rumored to be much more expensive due to the ongoing RAM shortage. We’ll keep you updated on how everything unfolds, so check back for more information.
