Steam Deck OLED white model arrives on November 18 – but it’s limited edition, and once sold out, will be gone forever

• Steam Deck OLED in white will be a limited edition available in all regions
• It’ll come with a matching white carry case and microfiber cleaning cloth
• The price of the new white model will be hiked by 5%

Valve has announced a limited edition of the Steam Deck OLED which will come in white instead of the traditional black color scheme.

That’s the main change with this Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White model, to give the handheld its full title, which is going to be released on November 18, 2024.

Other than the white color – with grey trim – this limited edition model is the same as the existing Steam Deck OLED with 1TB storage, except the price has been jacked up a little bit. In the US, the new white Steam Deck is $679, which is $30 more than the standard black model, with price increases presumably in line with that 5% hike in other regions.

Yes, the white Steam Deck is set to be available in all regions that already sell the device, including the US, UK, and Australia – in the latter country, the limited edition model will ship alongside the other Steam Decks that are only just arriving, on November 19. (Valve notes that Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong will be served via Komodo).

The Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White comes with a white carry case, and a white microfiber cleaning cloth by way of matching accessories.
