We had been waiting for the portable Xbox for years. We had it together with our noses

In March of this same year all roads began to converge in the same direction: the Portable Xbox began to appear the leg. Under the Keenan code name, the leaks pointed to an OEM console (manufactured by another company), with a certain reminiscence of Xbox in the design and Windows as an operating system. The leaks have been fulfilled, and the portable Xbox is official. Or is it not an Xbox? Rog Xbox Ally and Rog Xbox Ally X. ROG has been the OEM chosen by Microsoft to manufacture its portable Xbox. For the least familiar with the gaming world, ROG (Republic of Gamers) is a brand of the Taiwanese giant Asus. This division is centered on hardware oriented to high performance game. Xbox Series X: First impressions – Are you going to give us great joys? Under the names Rog Xbox Ally and Rog Xbox Ally XThe company will launch two consoles in the late 2025. Details about reservations, price or possible accessories are not yet known. The hardware. Xbox has revealed what the main specifications of these consoles will be. The X will be the most powerful model. The chip will be the AMD Ryzen Z2 A In the case of the ROG Ally, and an Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme for the X variant. Both will share seven -inch Full HD screen, IPS and with 500 nits, with frequency of 120 Hz refreshment and protection Corning Gorilla Glass Victus with Anti -reflective coating. They differ in processor, memoir (16 GB LPDDR5X-6400 vs. 24 GB LPDDR5X-8000, and 512 GB vs 1 TB), as well as more ports and battery for the X model (60 WH vs 80 Wh, both with 65W). The software. The leaks have been fulfilled and, as they pointed out, these consoles will arrive with Windows 11 Personalized by Rog. The interface is practically a tracing with respect to that of the desktop console: Microsoft has become obsessed so that Windows works quickly in this console. Taking a look at the information shared by Xbox, we see that the launcher is identical to that of Xbox in desktop, with the direct accesses on the left side, quick access to our recently played videos, suggestions of new deliveries, etc. The experience of use. Microsoft has minimized the consumption of resources in the background so that, as soon as the console starts, the experience is as fast as possible. The ergonomics of the buttons is based on the Xbox command. In fact, if you look well in the design of the product, it is practically a screen embedded between two Xbox controls. Years betting on the cloud. Xbox has been focusing efforts for the cloud for years. Xbox Cloud Gaminglook towards all kinds of formats (Like television itself without the need for console), Focus on the mobile phonee Even streaming of our own video games. Rog Xbox Ally will allow you to enjoy the cloud game not only through gamepass, but also with alternatives such as Epic Games, Battle.net … And even Steam. It is, of course, compatible with Xbox Play Anywherethe Xbox solution to avoid duplicate payments: the games are paid once, and can be enjoyed both in Xbox and PC. An Xbox that does not want to be just an Xbox. The Rog Xbox Ally key will be, precisely, when you want to go beyond Xbox. Being based on Windows, not only can you natively execute those deliveries specially made for Xbox: it is expected that it can execute games purchased on other platforms. This console, despite the name, is closer to a PC than an Xbox, and the company’s point is clear: “These consoles work with Windows, you have access to all PC games” (as long as they meet the requirements to be executed. The point is that … this already existed. If we look at the Xbox Rog Ally panel specifications and a good part of their speers … we are facing A sister of the Rog Ally. The Xbox Rog Ally has more power, haptic triggers, a different design and, perhaps the key, an optimized launcher for Xbox users to feel more comfortable. This console went on the market for 799 euros, 899 In the case of variant X. With a higher level hardware, there will be no miracle that prevents this console from selling about 1,000 euros. Xbox Rog Ally does not come to compete with Switch 2it is an immersion by Microsoft in the world of “HANDLED PC”one of the most competitive niches in the gaming world.

There will be portable Xbox this year according to Windows Central. It is the absolute validation of the Steam Deck revolution

When César what is from César and Nintendo what is from Nintendo: the Switchor rather, the concept of console proposed by Nintendo Switch, has come to stay. Proof of this is the Rage of consolidated PCs. The Steam Deck de Valve He sowed the seed of a segment of devices that is growing by leaps and bounds and it is no secret that Xbox, whose objective in this world is to turn any screen into a console, is working on its own proposal. Today, courtesy of Central Windowswe have been able to know that this console will soon arrive. Keenan. That is the code name that the Xbox portable console project receives. According to the aforementioned medium, Microsoft is working with an OEM (that is, with a company such as Asus, Lenovo, MSI, etc., it is not known which one) to develop it. This device will have a design that will remember Xbox and, probably, work with Windows. Makes sense: that will allow the Microsoft Store and Game Pass On the output grid. This is an Xbox. Microsoft has been struggling to transfer the idea that any screen is an Xbox and serves to play for a long time. Game Pass has managed to become the subscription, capital and bold, based on offering a launching games, large -budget titles, the possibility of playing them at home and accessing them in the cloud. There is no need for dedicated hardware, just an Internet connection to take a game. In that proposal a portable console fits very well. A console that allows Microsoft to breastfeed from Windows possibilities in the same way as Valve did it with Steamos (Aka Linux). In fact, it can be expected that the software options that Microsoft will take out of the sleeve (we think of an Xbox bar enhanced with TDP management options and fans speed, for example) result in the benefit of the rest of the OEMS. Asus Rog Ally | Image: Xataka Release date. According to Windows Central, the console is scheduled to advertise at the end of the year. It seems that Microsoft has put fifth. The first time we heard about this device was at the beginning of last year and it was not until November that Phil Spencer confirmed That was in development. However, having deposited the development of hardware in an OEM has surely accelerated things. After all Asus, Lenovo, MSI and Acer already have experience by building consolidated PCs. The Steam Deck revolution. At this point, it is objective to say that the Steam Deck has meant a turning point in the industry. PC video games, until now tied to a desktop or scarcely portable hardware, have been able to play on the couch on a console similar to a Nintendo Switch. It is proof that graphics in 4K HDR with Path Tracing and 400 FPS They are very good, but not as much as being able to play anywhere what we want. Information from the Next-Gen. Finally, the medium slides that the new generation of Xbox consoles has been approved by Microsoft’s board of directive. Its launch would be tentatively scheduled, by 2027. The console It was announced in 2019 And it was launched in 2020. Seven years of life, the predictable and expected. This new console would drink even more Windows, something designed to reduce the amount of development necessary to carry Xbox PC games. Since it seems that it was yesterday when the new generation consoles were announced, it is possible that someone is concerned about retrocompatibility. Here we must remember that Sarah Bond, president of Xbox, announced a long time ago A team of people dedicated to promoting the retrocompatibility of the games so, the future Xbox games can be compatible with Xbox Series X | s, but it is early to know.
