Steam Beta gets battery indicator for wireless gamepads as the new Steam Controller nears

We’re hopefully not too far off the discharge of the brand new Steam Controller now, with Valve including a battery indicator for wi-fi gamepads. A really helpful characteristic, that I’m shocked wasn’t truly an official factor already.

Testing it out with my PowerA OPS controller, as soon as I swapped it into the Bluetooth mode, Steam now accurately shows a battery degree for it which is fairly nice (it did not work with the dongle).

From the Steam Shopper Beta changelog for April twenty fourth:

Normal

• Added a low battery degree toast for wi-fi gamepads

Huge Image Mode

• Added a battery indicator to the header for wi-fi gamepads
• Mounted concern with controller battery standing hyperlinks within the Fast Entry Menu not returning to the right place.
• Mounted a number of navigation points with controller settings.

macOS

• Mounted soundtrack playback not engaged on Apple Silicon machines.

The SteamOS / Steam Deck Beta consumer replace was the identical.
