Valve is taking over the living room. The company issued another teaser for what is likely its long-in-development Steam Box on a new page on Steam's website, with a countdown set to hit zero on Monday.

"Last year, we shipped a software feature called Big Picture, a user-interface tailored for televisions and gamepads," the page reads. "This year we’ve been working on even more ways to connect the dots for customers who want Steam in the living room. Soon, we’ll be adding you to our design process, so that you can help us shape the future of Steam."

Valve co-founder Gabe Newell said earlier this week the company would soon reveal more information about "some of the work we've done on the hardware side" of Linux-based living room gaming.

It seems the announcement on Monday will be the first of three, given the three odd circle pictographs depicted on the page. There are also three buttons on the little controller model in the picture. We're not saying, we're just saying.

Former GamesRadar+ News Writer

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
