New 'Triton' Steam controller Icon datamined.

Please give it to me. I don't want to play shooters with a normal controller, but I also don't want to use mouse and keyboard on the couch. The Steam Controller is close to mouse level speed and accuracy for me.
 
TRI-ton? as in THREE!? HALF-LIFE 3 CONFIRMED! /s

Anyway, this is cool, I have been patiently waiting for this to release.
Apparently means Third in greek (τρίτος). This is it boys.
HL3 confirmed.

edit: that's tritos, not triton. But it might be the source of the name.

From the leaked images, it's more like a traditional dual stick controller than the original Steam controller. Think Steam Deck controls with bigger trackpads.

Edit: Although looking at the new icon, are they replacing the right thumstick with a trackpad? that would make it more like the Steam controler.

Leaked model has two

It's just an icon, I don't think it's meant to be representative
 
Triton is the official name annd the ibex was the code name? Or are they both codenames and triton is just the new codename

Did the original one always need to be plugged in? That's poo if true

No, it requires AA batteries.

The silver lining is that the battery life is very good, but the compartment and mechanism of getting the batteries in and out is an absolute ball-ache.
 
This device needs to be quite small for those sticks to be comfortable.
Amazed how long its taking to release it, Im also fully expecting it to be half baked.

It will be the form factor but not be TMR sticks or it will have no haptics feedback.
 
The steam controller was a great option for games that didn't have gamepad support, it also had incredible battery life.

But other than that I don't see a need, and with the majority of pc games now getting console ports even genres that usually skipped gamepad support now have it.

Civilization VII, Planet Coaster 2, Two Point Campus etc.

The steam controller fixed a problem for me that 10 years later doesn't really exist anymore.

What is this real lol

It's part of the cad files leaked that also had the VR controllers

They're just the steam deck controllers without the screen if you think of it, analog sticks lower than steam deck. Would make sense for valve to continue compatibility for their upcoming "console", steam deck and eventually steam deck 2
