Valve's new Steam Controller goes on sale from 4 May, priced at £85 in the UK and $99 in the US. That is double what the original cost when it launched in 2015, and the jump has not gone unnoticed.

The second-generation gamepad is compatible with PCs, the Steam Deck, and Valve's upcoming gaming PC, the Steam Machine. It does not work with PlayStation, Xbox or Nintendo consoles.

Reaction online has been sharp. On Reddit, one of the most upvoted comments read: "I have paid more for a controller, I have paid a lot less, too."
