Part 5/8:
Exploring the Roy Controller and the Deckard Headset
In addition to the Steam Controller 2, Bradley discusses another device, codenamed Roy, designed to accompany Valve’s anticipated standalone VR headset, known as Deckard. The Roy controller resembles conventional VR controllers but goes beyond that with additional features suited for traditional gaming as well.
The Roy is expected to include thumbsticks, a D-pad, face buttons, and other necessary inputs. However, it notably lacks trackpads. This controller may symbolize Valve's focus on creating a comprehensive VR experience that merges standard gaming controls with the immersive potential of VR technology.
