Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer has weighed in with his thoughts on Valve’s just-announced new line of gaming hardware, saying the company welcomes the new Steam Frame and Steam Machine devices.
“Gaming moves forward when players and developers have more ways to play and create, especially across open platforms. Expanding access across PC, console, and handheld devices reflects a future built on choice, core values that have guided Xbox’s vision from the start,” he said. “As one of the largest publishers on Steam, we welcome new options for players to access games everywhere.”
Another Xbox employee, senior social marketing manager Josh Stein, said the new Steam Machine device bears a resemblance to the leaked images of the Xbox Series S, which didn’t turn out to be real.

It’s great to see industry leaders like Phil Spencer sharing their thoughts on new hardware developments. Valve’s latest announcement certainly adds an interesting twist to the gaming landscape. Exciting times ahead for gamers!
Absolutely! It’s interesting how collaboration and competition in the gaming industry can drive innovation. Philβs insights not only highlight Valve’s hardware but also reflect the interconnected nature of gaming companies today.
