DataBlitz has started online sales of the Valve Steam Machine in the Philippines, offering a price lower than that of rival retailer GameXtreme, according to REVU Philippines. The move expands availability of the gaming hardware beyond physical stores.
The Steam Machine, a console-like PC running SteamOS, is now available for pre-order through DataBlitz's online platform. The retailer's pricing undercuts GameXtreme's previous listing, making it more accessible to local gamers.
The competitive pricing reflects the growing demand for alternative gaming platforms in the Philippines. DataBlitz's entry into online sales for the Steam Machine could pressure GameXtreme to adjust its pricing strategy.
