ASUS teams up with Microsoft to create two powerful handheld gaming computers called the ROG Xbox Ally. The companies previously called their secret project Kennan before revealing the final product name today. Both models run Windows 11 and can play thousands of PC games from various digital stores. The basic ROG Xbox Ally uses an AMD Ryzen Z2 A processor with 16GB of memory and 512GB storage space. This version balances battery life against gaming performance for everyday players.
The premium ROG Xbox Ally X features the faster AMD Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme processor for demanding games and applications. Advanced players receive 24GB of high-speed memory and 1TB of storage space for their game collections. The upgraded processor delivers higher frame rates and sharper graphics during intense gaming sessions. Both devices support all games shown during the recent Xbox Games Showcase event. The extra memory prevents performance problems when running multiple programs at the same time.
ASUS and Microsoft plan to release both gaming handhelds during the holiday shopping season across global markets. Companies have not announced specific launch dates for either the standard or premium models. The highly anticipated game Hollow Knight Silksong will arrive when the devices officially launch. These portable gaming computers compete against other handheld systems that target serious PC gamers. Players can access their existing game libraries from Steam, Epic Games Store and other digital platforms.
