Probably 120€ if you add shipping from the US and VAT to it. The weak US$ helps a bit so maybe 110€.
Comment on Steam Controller early review leak claims $99 launch price

Oh no, I can’t believe that. 100 Dollars is a lot of money for a gamepad, even though it is exactly what I was waiting (and hoping) for years. I thought it would cost 70, and was ready for 80 if neccessary. I said 90 would be the maximum limits… Oh no, do I have to break my word? Man 100 is tough. Maybe it will cost 90 Euros… maybe I don’t have to break my word…

The Steam Deck had a European release. Will probably be the same with this one.
Earlier today (or yesterday) the Steam Controller page on Komodo, the official Asian reseller, went accidentally live. I’d say that’s a good indicator that they’re gearing up for a more or less worldwide release with dedicated shipping centers.

Still needs shipping and the US prices given are usually without VAT.

It is if you compare it to a regular controller, but from what it offers - touchpads, back buttons, hall effect sticks, gyro, full remappability etc - it’s more comparable to something like the PS5 Edge and those are almost twice the cost.

There are controllers that offer almost all off this such as hall effects, back buttons, gyro, full remappability, even including a dock and a builtin memory to save settings, just without the touchpads. In example the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller and it costs only $55.99. I am not saying it is fully equivalent (clearly it isn’t, as touchpads are missing and a few little features off course).
