Valve’s VR controllers, Knuckles, have been updated to let players pick up, hold, and squeeze objects with their hands in virtual reality. Other additions include a thumbstick, trackpad button with a force sensor underneath, more force sensors in the grip, and an updated strap.

The new controller revision currently has a six-hour battery life and takes an hour and a half to charge with a USB-C cable. No word yet on how much they'll cost or when they'll ship, but you can probably expect SteamVR partners like HTC (and maybe LG, if it ever brings its headset to market) to ship new headsets with them included.

Half-Life 3 CONFIRMED. Why else would they make this.

Well they made the steam controller which by all accounts was weird, seems Gabe would rather throw his money at shit like this and the ultra pointless "steambox" than actual game development.
