New details about the differences between Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch: so console performance Valve will not be upgraded by the docking station. The company decided to focus on how the system will be used most often – on the go.
This does not mean that it will be impossible to connect a monitor with a resolution of 1080p and higher to the docking station to get the desired picture – no one has canceled this possibility. However, the performance of the device will remain the same as during portable use, which will be especially noticeable when playing at higher resolutions.
“We have control over the hardware, software and everything else, so we know the exact specs of our console. Developers who want to launch their game on the Steam Deck without any problems will have the opportunity to tweak it. If they want it.
As an added bonus, you never have to worry about updating drivers and other things typical of standard PCs. We will take these tasks upon ourselves so that in the end everything works without any problems. “
It turns out that Valve decided to take care not only of the players, but also of the developers. Recall that there are still a few months left before the release of the hybrid console – the release is expected no earlier than spring 2023.
