This is the best summary I could come up with:

HORI, a manufacturer of popular gaming accessories have today revealed the Wireless Horipad for Steam.

The main thing that concerns me here for Linux and Steam Deck support, is their mention of a dedicated app for it.

We've seen before from the likes of 8BitDo, that certain buttons on their controllers (like back paddles) require a dedicated app and so cannot be configured directly on Linux / Steam Deck.

Back paddles and 2 extra custom buttons on the bottom.

Rapid fire ability on face buttons (ABXY).

Price according to their page is 9,780 Japanese Yen, so about £50 GBP / $60 USD.
