There are also separate sign-up lists for each shipping region, and Valve says it will automatically place you in the list for your region. There are currently four shipping regions: North America, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Australia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The sign-up window ends on June 25th at 10AM PT \/ 1PM ET. At that point, Valve will use a \u201cone-time randomization\u201d to determine the reservation order for everyone who signed up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Regardless of how many lists you signed up for, you can ultimately end up on only one. If you get lucky and get randomly assigned a reservation spot for more than one model, Valve says you\u2019ll automatically be given the reservation for the highest-end model you signed up for, and removed from any other sign-up lists you were on. Likewise, if you didn\u2019t get a reservation spot at all, Valve says \u201cyou\u2019ll be placed on the waitlist for the model that you were closest to the front of.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">On June 25th, Valve will send out emails to everyone who signed up letting them know whether they\u2019ve been added to the reservation queue, meaning there\u2019s a unit reserved for them, or the waitlist. If you sign up after June 25th, you\u2019ll automatically be added to the back of the waitlist. Once these emails go out, you can\u2019t change which Steam Machine configuration you signed up for.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Valve also has some eligibility criteria you\u2019ll need to meet to sign up:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote class=\"duet--article--blockquote _1lkuyz80 _19wv7tc9\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1lkuyz88 _19wv7tc1\">You must have a Steam account in good standing<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1lkuyz88 _19wv7tc1\">You must have made a purchase on Steam prior to April 27th 2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1lkuyz88 _19wv7tc1\">Limit one signup per household.

If you secure a reservation, Valve will give you 72 hours to complete your Steam Machine purchase. The first reservation emails are going out on June 29th.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/games\/952191\/valve-steam-machine-reservation-preorder-process\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting today, you can sign up for a chance to reserve the Steam Machine, choosing from four different options: All four options will have their own sign-up list, and you can sign up for multiple if you want.
