SteamOS Breaks Free from Steam Deck, Challenges Windows Gaming Hegemony?

Lenovo's Legion Go S is the first non-Valve hardware officially powered by SteamOS, marking SteamOS's expansion beyond the Steam Deck. This $500+ handheld will compete with a Windows 11 version, offering players more choice. Valve also announced a public beta of SteamOS to improve compatibility and plans to support more devices in the future. This move could challenge Windows' long-standing dominance in PC gaming, suggesting a flourishing Linux gaming ecosystem.
