Steam Deck sales are losing steam since May’s price hike
Summary
Ars Technica reports that Steam Deck sales have tumbled after Valve's May price hike. Backed by Boiling Steam data, the article estimates an 80% decline in weekly unit sales (roughly 1,400–3,000/week vs. 11,000–18,000 in 2025) and attributes it to higher prices and ongoing supply constraints, with potential spillover to future hardware like Steam Deck 2.
