How to Reserve a Steam Machine Through Valve's New System

22 Haziran 2026The Verge

Valve has introduced a reservation system for preordering the Steam Machine, aiming to create a fairer process and reduce bot interference. This system differs from the $5 reservation model used for the Steam Deck.
Interested customers can now sign up to reserve their unit, but the process may be more complex than anticipated.
The Steam Machine is part of Valve's strategy to expand its hardware offerings, following the success of the Steam Deck. This new approach to reservations comes in response to previous challenges faced during product launches, where bots often snatched up inventory before genuine customers had a chance.
The introduction of a reservation system for the Steam Machine reflects Valve's ongoing efforts to address issues related to fairness in product launches. By moving away from a simple monetary reservation model, Valve is attempting to mitigate the impact of bots that often dominate high-demand product releases.
