dbrand Launches 51 “Totally Legal” Skins for Valve’s Steam Machine, Steam Controller, and Steam Deck
dbrand is back with a fresh lineup of Steam Machine accessories, and this time the company is making a joke out of staying on the safe side. After recently canceling its popular Portal-inspired Companion Cube case due to a legal objection from Valve, dbrand has introduced 51 new and existing skins for Valve’s Steam Machine, Steam Controller, and Steam Deck.
The new collection includes a wide range of styles designed to give Valve’s hardware a more personalized look. Among the listed designs are Basketbox, Terminal, Package, Flat Earth, Bricks, Dice, Orange Box, Glow in the Dark, and Touch Grass. The company is clearly leaning into the situation with its “totally legal” branding, a playful reference to the earlier case cancellation.
Out of the 51 available designs, nine were created specifically for the Steam Machine. These include Basketbox, Terminal, Flat Earth, Bricks, both Dice color options, Package, Orange Box, and Touch Grass. Each of these Steam Machine skins also comes with a matching Steam Controller skin, giving users a coordinated setup for their Valve gaming hardware.
The rest of the collection appears to come from dbrand’s existing catalog, offering familiar designs for Steam Deck owners and anyone looking to customize their Steam ecosystem. The variety gives players plenty of choices, whether they want something bold, minimal, retro-inspired, or intentionally ridiculous.
Several of the new skins seem to playfully nod toward Valve’s design history without directly using the branding that caused trouble for the canceled Companion Cube case. That case had reportedly become one of dbrand’s fastest-selling products before it was pulled, showing strong demand for Steam Machine accessories with recognizable gaming-inspired designs.
The timing of this new skin launch makes it feel like dbrand is turning a setback into a marketing moment. Rather than stepping away from Steam Machine customization, the company has quickly shifted to a broader product lineup that still appeals to Valve fans while avoiding the licensing issue that affected its earlier release.
Shipments for the new Steam Machine, Steam Controller, and Steam Deck skins are expected to begin in late August. For gamers looking to personalize their Valve hardware, dbrand’s latest drop offers a large selection of eye-catching options with a cheeky sense of humor behind them.
