Steam Controller and Steam Link do not work on Macs

4.6
Valve’s new hardware will be updated soon, publisher hands out free games as compensation.

Playing games on your Mac? Valve’s new Steam Controller and Steam Link gadget won’t work for you. Sorry about that.

The Steam Controller doesn’t support gamepad emulation and the Steam Link doesn’t stream from Macs.

Valve has said it hopes to fix the “temporary software issues” in the coming weeks.

As compensation it’s handing out the Valve Complete Pack to anyone who has pre-purchased the controller and Link. You can still get a refund on the hardware and keep the free games.

Lyttle That's a shame, I like to place games on my mac when i'm traveling.. This seemed like a good idea, well.. Until now.


What games could you possibly play on a mac? Especially ones that would require a controller?

Is it just me or does that controller look horrible

I don't think macs are great anyway. Most people on steam don't own a mac too.
