Leaked Steam Page for Valve Index Headset Points to June 15th Release Date

Last week’s teaser reveal of the Valve Index headset came with very little information save for a single picture of the bottom of the headset with a tagline “Upgrade your experience. May 2019.” Now, an apparently leaked Steam product page reveals a new rendering of the headset and a release date of June 15th.

Twitter user Wario64 appears to have uncovered an official Steam product page for Valve’s Index headset; though the page has already been taken down, screenshots remain. As it’s April 1st, we’re on full alert for jokes and outright fakes, especially with regards to a highly anticipated product about which little official information has been released. However, SteamDB—a massive third-party database of everything in the Steam catalog—confirms the existence of the Valve Index page with the very same header photo, lending credibility to the authenticity of the screenshots.

As the page was apparently not supposed to be published this early (obvious from the ‘Lorem ipsum’ placeholder text), the information may not be final, but here’s the most interesting bits:

  • “Ships June 15th”
  • “Displays. Optics. Audio. Ergo. Experience the infinite virtual worlds of Valve Index”
  • Mention of pass-through camera feature
  • GTX 1070 GPU “recommended,” GTX 970 “minimum”

We’ve reached out to Valve for comment on the Index page and the information therein.
