A new leak suggests the upcoming Machine from could cost more than 1000 euros, or about $1,168. The information was discovered in Valve's backend code by Steam Tracking on GitHub and discussed on Reddit. The code may refer to a bundle that includes the Steam Controller, which could explain the high price.

Backend code reveals possible bundle pricing

Valve is expected to offer the Steam Machine with 512GB and 2TB SSD storage options. The code could also be related to the Steam Frame VR headset, though that is unconfirmed. YouTuber Moore's Law Is Dead predicts a lower price of $600 to $650 for the lower-end specs.

Valve has accepted shipments of a product labeled 'Game Console', indicating that the release date is approaching. The company has not officially announced pricing or availability details.

The source code suggests a reservation queue system for Valve hardware, but the exact product and pricing remain unclear. Valve has not confirmed the leak or provided official specifications.
