Valve, the ultimate trolls…
A new selection of job listings on the official Valve website confirm they are indeed developing hardware. One of the listings cities that Valve are looking to develop hardware that “enhance” the great gameplay experiences the firm has offered in the past:
“For years, Valve has been all about writing software that provides great gameplay experiences. Now we’re developing hardware to enhance those experiences, and you can be a key part of making that happen. Join our highly motivated team that’s doing hardware design, prototyping, testing, and production across a wide range of platforms. We’re not talking about me-too mice and gamepads here – help us invent whole new gaming experiences”.
“Work with the hardware team to conceive, design, evaluate, and produce new types of input, output, and platform hardware”
The full job listing can be seen here.
Of course, this isn’t the first time we’ve heard of a Valve console. As you may remember, rumours recently spread that the company was developing a machine codenamed “steambox”.
