The 28 Best Steam Deck Accessories

With Valve ramping up production on the Steam Deck to fulfill existing orders by the end of 2022, there will soon be a lot of new Steam Deck users. If you’re one of them, congrats and enjoy one of the most impressive handheld gaming consoles ever made. While the Steam Deck comes with a carrying case and you technically don’t need any other accessories to have a great experience, there are a bunch of useful Steam Deck accessories out there to pair with your fancy new handheld. From stellar third-party docking stations and gaming monitors to screen protectors and various ergonomic-focused products, you can really deck out your Steam Deck already. We’ve rounded up the best Steam Deck accessories available now. We’ll continue to add to this list as we test more accessories.

The Steam Deck comes in three models: 64GB, 256GB, and 512GB. One of the earliest problems that may arise, especially if you didn’t buy the 512GB edition, is running out of space. Thankfully, it’s easy and relatively cheap to significantly expand your Steam Deck’s storage capacity. The other potential snag? If you’re used to the hybrid nature of the Nintendo Switch, you may want to try “docking” your Steam Deck. The only accessory you technically need for that is a USB-C to HDMI cable, but there are far more useful and practical docking options out there, as you’ll see below. Our roundup of the best Steam Deck accessories includes all of the major categories of products you could need.
