Replace 5/18/26: It seems the Steam Body being proven by VooDooDE is not his and he has not signed any NDA. Whereas he does not verify whether or not its a dev package or another person’s overview unit, he did verify on YouTube that this is not his machine. We added a paragraph to elaborate.
I’ve been overwhelmingly excited to get again into VR with the Steam Body. I’ve been following you for fairly a while now, ever since I first bought the HTC Vive in 2016. The Steam Body has reinvigorated that for me, and I can’t watch for its launch. And now, plainly the discharge may be getting even nearer, as we now have the primary sighting of a attainable overview unit that somebody has.
Posted on Twitter/X, it seems to be as if reviewer VooDooDE VR has a Steam Body that they’re reviewing. The publish was about how they’ve their fingers on the Steam Body, and so they’re going to be spending the following few days testing it inside out, whereas additionally being open to taking questions and check requests. This was posted together with an image displaying him with the Body on.
As I used to be scripting this, VooDeeDE VR posted once more with a brief video displaying the Steam Body and mentioning that the consolation feels “premium.” He additionally mentioned he hasn’t had lots of time to check it but, indicating he bought it comparatively lately, however can have the following few days to check it extra.
Often, reviewers having these items means an announcement or launch is coming quickly. And if a reviewer is ready to discuss it, that should imply it’s coming even sooner. VooDooDE is a German content material creator and reviewer who focuses on VR experiences, so it could make sense that they’d get a unit. Nonetheless, in the event that they’re in a position to announce it like this, it could often signify that we’re going to get an official announcement quickly. My intestine says will probably be Thursday, since he mentioned he shall be taking just a few days to check it. Nevertheless it’s very attainable {that a} launch date shall be introduced at this time, and we’ll see different reviewers saying they’re reviewing the machine.
Not less than that’s what I hope. I can’t wait to have the Steam Body for myself, and it’s only a matter of time earlier than it will get into our fingers.
UPDATE: VooDooDE made feedback on YouTube explaining that this is not his machine and he did not signal any NDA, which is why he’s speaking about it. He by no means made any indication whether or not it was another person’s dev package or overview unit, solely explaining that it wasn’t his personal unit. This might imply overview items are out, and he’s simply utilizing it, however it might additionally imply it is a dev package he’s borrowing.
