The app allows users to access their Steam library remotely, and even supports peripherals like the Steam controller. The Steam Link app, compatible with Android devices only, does many of the same things that the device itself does - which sounds more cost-effective for Valve than producing the less popular hardware. “Moving forward, Valve intends to continue supporting the existing Steam Link hardware as well as distribution of the software versions of Steam Link, available for many leading smart phones, tablets and televisions.” The streaming box will continue to live on through mobile devices, Valve says. Valve has previously sold the Steam Link at clearance prices - as low as $2.50 - to move hardware. The Steam Link costs $49.99, while the bundle is 10 percent off at $89.98. You can still buy the Steam Link on its own or a bundle that includes the Steam controller through the Steam storefront. “The supply of physical Steam Link hardware devices is sold out in Europe and almost sold out in the US,” the post reads. Valve didn’t explicitly say that it would no longer make the Steam Link, instead heavily implying that the boxes currently available will be the last of them. The company announced just yesterday on the hardware’s community news page that it has discontinued the Steam Link - and the remaining stock is already dwindling. Steam Link, Valve’s tiny box that let PC owners stream their Steam library to their TV, is no longer in production.
