SteamOS finally makes the leap from the Steam Deck to a new gaming handheld from Lenovo

It’s not like we didn’t know it was coming and it was just a a case of when, but that when is now, and as of a joint announcement from Valve and Lenovo we know that the first hardware to officially run Steam OS outside of the Steam Deck itself will be the sexily titled Lenovo Legion Go S (8”, 1) Powered by SteamOS Now for us, you can never have too many brackets in your product name – they just ooze excitement, but the real story here is that Valve finally is ready to uinleash its gaming Operating System onto hardware from others that would traditionally pack a much bloatier Windows 11 install. There will still be versions of the (Legion) (GO) from (Lenovo) that will come pre-packed with Windows as well but this is a huge warning shot across Microsoft’s bows that its days of only having to worry about a version of Linux that only nerds loved is well and truly over. Lenovo says of its new Steam machine, “This new handheld combines the powerhouse features of the Lenovo Legion Go S (8”, 1) with the flexibility and console-like experience of SteamOS, Valve’s operating system that is optimized for gaming.
