The Steam Deck, originally released in February, is finally coming to the East. Shipment of the device is finally ramping up, and the first orders will ship to Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and South Korea on December 17. Komodo handles distribution in these four regions.

Customers who have already pre-ordered the Steam Deck will start receiving confirmation emails from December 1st. Once these orders are confirmed, the devices will be shipped. The first wave of handhelds will begin shipping on December 17, with an expected delivery time of days to weeks.

Reservations for the docking station can also be made via Komodo for players from these four countries. Deck Docks will ship immediately alongside Steam Decks while supplies last.

Orders placed before December 17 also qualify for free shipping. If someone in Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan or South Korea is hesitant to order one, free shipping might just be the deciding factor.

Steam Deck and Dock price starts at:

Japan: 59,800 JPY / 14,800 JPY Kong Kong: 3,288 HKD / 828 HKD Taiwan: TWD 13,380 / TWD 3,280 South Korea: 589,000 KRW / 149,000 KRW

Just in case anyone was wondering, all of these prices are about the same as what the Steam Deck and Docking Station cost everywhere else.
