All you need to do is check at the local store near you if it is available, as apparently, it has reached a few outlets since it is getting imported into the country.
As it is coming via the grey market, the prices appear to be all over the place. The approximate prices of the Steam Deck are as follows. Steam Deck starts at Rs 62,500 for the base 64GB variant, Rs 77,000 for the 256GB variant, and Rs 90,000 for the 512GB variant.
As you can see the prices are inflated as Steam Deck was launched for $399 in the US, that’s roughly Rs 32,600. Alwani believes that the prices will go down as Value arranges for more stock in more regions worldwide which will help importers to get it at a cheaper price.
