Jelly Deals: Steam Link and Steam Controller discounted by up to 60%

Link between worlds.

A note from the editor: Jelly Deals is a deals site launched by our parent company, Gamer Network, with a mission to find the best bargains out there. Look out for the Jelly Deals roundup of reduced-price games and kit every Saturday on Eurogamer.


Some of you may remember 2015. Times were simpler, there was a new Star Wars movie on the horizon and Valve threw its hat into the PC hardware ring with the release of the Steam Controller and Steam Link. With the controller, Valve delivered a freakishly customisable gamepad designed to be usable with any and every PC game possible, even those lovely 4X strategy games. With the Link, Valve offered up a high-quality solution for streaming PC games to a TV or other screen around your home using either a wired or wireless connection.

If you haven't yet had a chance to get your hands on either of these but have wanted to give them a try, it's that little bit easier right now, since GAME is currently offering them for reduced prices starting today. The Steam Controller is discounted by 30 per cent, down to £27.99 while the Steam Link is 60 per cent off, available for £15.99. If, for whatever reason, you feel like just picking up the wireless receiver for the Steam Controller, that's on offer too - down to £7.99.

This is, as always, a limited time offer and ends on 1st March, so keep that in mind when considering a purchase. Over in the US, Amazon is offering similar price cuts to the hardware - cutting the Link down to $20, the Controller down to $35 and a bundle of the two will run you $55 for a limited time.
