[UploadVR] Valve To Show ‘New Features And Updates’ For Steam And More At GDC

I'm curious about the multi-platform network API. Valve doesn't have a single game on current-gen consoles or mobile (unless you want to be generous and include X360 BC on the X1), but Source being ported to Linux was said to be a "stepping stone to mobile" way back when.
Isn't there a rumor that Valve is adding Xbox live support directly into the client?
Might be related to that.
Yeah. There was a tiny code "leak" a few months ago, and the client was recently updated to support an unnamed "partner API". There's also MCC's store page listing an XBL account as a requirement (a first for Microsoft's WinStore -> Steam releases), but that might be unrelated.

i really hope they give us a potential timetable on some of the UI stuff. Even if it's just a "by the end of this year".
Sounds like Valve are ready to show off some pretty good stuff! I wish they did this sort of thing more often...
Full blowout on Valve branded VR hardware please.
I feel like ive been hearing about these knuckle controllers for my entire life and they go nowhere.
Specifically that a HL tech demo would be used to show them off.

God I hope they announce the Knuckles for sale. The faster I can get rid of my Vive wands the better.
Maybe gamepass will be coming to Steam? Honestly the moves Microsoft have been making lately, I think that makes sense.
Perhaps, but the timing is intriguing given that Ms is expected to start talking the story about Xbox as a service during gdc.
Wouldn't be a big suprise considering how open Valve is to everything. Adding support for so much stuff that isn't created by them, things that are straight up in competition to their stuff.

I think it'll happen. Microsoft won't be able to convince every developer to sign up for the Windows Store, so team up with Valve and find a way to make GamePass work with Steam. I think we'll also see Microsoft approaching other storefronts after this to do the same.
Honestly...do they need other storefronts after steam? Origin won't let them have their games on it. Maybe uplay?
both of these pls. thanks. (the HMD can be Valve branded or HTC branded or whatever I dont care)

Not GDC announcement but Valve announced new features for their SDK
