Valve’s Steam Deck could soon be challenged by a similar machine built by Razer. This leaves room for doubt.
A steam bridge For the razor ? In an interview with Dexerto, Razer said that » everything is possiblemid ‘ when it comes to creating a Steam Deck-like console. However, their portable console under Android, Razer Edge, recently released in the United States. In general, the device reviews are rave reviews. Some specialists even speak of a phenomenal experience. Kevin MacLeod, Razer Product Developer, and Justin Cooney, Global Director of Razer Partnerships, confess that Razer might consider creating a competitor for Valve’s laptop.
A Steam Deck competitor with the mark of the snake
Kevin MacLeod described his plans for the future:
“I don’t think you’ll see Razer move away from mobile gaming. I think you’ll see a lot of exciting things in Razer’s mobile gaming offering. Whether it’s handheld machines, controllers or other stuff. “
Therefore, it can be assumed that Razer will continue to develop mobile products. However, given the positioning of the Razer Edge, it would make sense for the manufacturer to want to get a piece of the handheld gaming pie that the Steam Deck captures.. In its press release, the snake brand is content to say that anything is possible. He adds that for the moment, it focuses on the Razer Edge and is very proud of the Edge in its current form.
A probability becomes clear
Therefore, the chance of Razer releasing a competitor on the Steam Deck is far from zero. Specialist in high-end PC games, Razer has the know-how to create a viable competitor machine Valve, built on linux. Small unknown manufacturers like Ayaneo are getting started, so why not Razer?
Additionally, Razer could appeal to gamers with a high-end, streaming-ready gaming PC. According to the manufacturer, your device will run games at higher frame rates, with a better display than Valve’s console. This last it starts at exactly the same price as the Wi-Fi model of the Razer Edge. If Steam Deck offers more raw power, not as handy as the Razer Edge, which has a much better display and refresh rate. A case to follow.
