Buyers must have a Steam account and have made a purchase before April 27, 2026 to join the waitlist. Valve limits purchases to one controller per person. Selected customers have 72 hours to complete their order after receiving an email notification.
Inventory replenishment begins next week in North America before rolling out globally.
Valve stated that replenishment of inventory will vary from region to region. The company confirmed it will start fulfilling reservations next week in the US and Canada. The UK, EU, and AU regions will receive stock in the following weeks.
