进军主机行业?传V社除了开发Steam Deck 2还在打造家用主机

According to NotebookCheck, Valve is not only developing Steam Deck 2, but also developing a dedicated home console that may use AMD's upcoming Zen 6 APU codenamed "Magnus" and is the same chip as Sony PS6 and the next-generation Xbox.The news comes from internal news and speculations from the hosts of Tom and Jimmy Champagne, the YouTube channel "Moore's Law is Dead".

Jimmy Champagne also hinted that Sony may work closer with Valve in the future, especially to ensure that PlayStation games fully support Steam Deck.This statement is not groundless. After all, Sony has been working hard to get its first-party games to pass Steam Deck certification. For example, "The Last Survivor 2" and "God of War 5: Ragnarok" have all obtained the Steam Deck certification mark.

In addition, the rumored AMD Zen 6 APU, also considered one of the chips used by PS6 or Microsoft's next-generation Xbox consoles, is expected to be a powerful processor with 11 cores designed for gaming performance.

Speaking about the possibility of Valve home hosting, "Moore's Law is dead" mentioned: "I can only say that someone told me a few years ago that Valve would use AMD's processors, which would be very powerful, and that they would use this as a real host release, with the goal of competing with traditional home hosting."

If this rumored Valve home host does use a Zen 6 processor, that means Valve is planning to expand its business from handheld to a wider hosting platform.
