We've been hearing rumors for what feels like an eternity about Microsoft working with ASUS' ROG division on a gaming handheld device, and we got confirmation during the Xbox Games Showcase at Summer Game Fest.

Xbox players will soon be able to take their favorite games anywhere with the launch of the new ROG Xbox Ally handhelds.

Asus makes heavy revisions to the Ally for a new Xbox-branded model, though it's still running Windows 11 underneath. Two versions will launch at the end of 2025.
