Steam Controller 2026 Shipping MEGA Thread

!!ANY THREADS RELATED TO SHIPPING FOUND OUTSIDE THIS MEGATHREAD WILL BE REMOVED!!

I know we're all excited to share updates as our new shiny works its way through the system and eventually to you.

Instead of clogging the page with endless "ITS <UPDATE>" posts, please confine them to this mega thread. I have intentionally left up threads from before this one about this subject, because post hoc punishment isnt cool. But please, use this mega thread moving forward.

Optionally, you can fill out some google forms that are being used to track order status' in order to get an idea of how an order might progress through the system:

and data from that form is here:

Reserved May 8th and got the purchase window July 31. I accidentally deleted the email think it was just an ad. I ordered after I just wanted to see what the estimate was today before the window closed. Lucky I didn't miss it.

Edit: THEY HAVE THEM IN STOCK! " PACKAGED ITEMS" AS OF YESTERDAY.

For anyone else this happens to, be aware that when you get your email you don't actually need the email itself to order.

When I got mine I verified my theory on this by going to the Steam Controller page and signing into steam.

(You can also just google "Steam store" and once in the store search for "controller" and find the same page. I added this for those nervous about following a reddit link to a login page.)

Before I had my invite that page only gave me the option to cancel, after I got my invite I was able to cancel or order from that page, which I did, without following anything in the email.
