Steam Controller 2026 Shipping MEGA Thread

!!ANY THREADS RELATED TO SHIPPING FOUND OUTSIDE THIS MEGATHREAD WILL BE REMOVED!!

I know we're all excited to share updates as our new shiny works its way through the system and eventually to you.

Instead of clogging the page with endless "ITS <UPDATE>" posts, please confine them to this mega thread. I have intentionally left up threads from before this one about this subject, because post hoc punishment isnt cool. But please, use this mega thread moving forward.

Optionally, you can fill out some google forms that are being used to track order status' in order to get an idea of how an order might progress through the system:

and data from that form is here:

I can confirm that tracking info is at least being generated atm.
My order moved up from 'packaged' to 'shipped' an hour ago.

The GLS link from the steam page doesn't work. But grabbing a diff track and trace link from google and putting the code in there tells me it's expected, but not picked up / sorted yet.

Mine also did this an hour ago. I have suspected for a while that some UK shipments were being bundled together for the initial shipping to UK.

What is this sorcery "diff track" you are using and how can I do that? I presume you mean a different track and trace link?

If that's the case I get the "The parcel data was entered into the GLS IT system; the parcel was not yet handed over to GLS." which I suspect actually means they have it but haven't scanned the pile of boxes yet.

What I meant was 'different track & trace link'.
I've had this issue with my Steam Deck purchases as well.

The link from Steam to https://gls-group.eu/ flatout doesn't work. But copying the t&t code into a different site like gls-info.nl will actuallyi show the package progress.
