ASUS confirms that ROG Ally could get a global launch soon

Remember the ROG Ally that popped up earlier this month? Originally, some believed that it was an April Fool's joke. But it wasn't, despite the date the video was posted. The ROG Ally turned out to be a real product that's in the works, and could come sooner than we expected.

In a recent Twitter post, ASUS confirmed that the ROG Ally would be released worldwide. The company also said that the launch will be "sooner than you expect". This could mean that the device could have completed its mass-production phase and is ready for shipping. In fact, ROG Global already provided a best buy link for its first-wave of customers from North America (US and Canada).

As a reminder, the ROG Ally is not intended to be a Steam Deck clone. Although a competing product, this is more a Windows-based handheld gaming console that supports Steam, Epic Games Store, and Battle.net games. The console is also expected to have better hardware than the Steam Deck, featuring a 7-inch 1080 display with a 120Hz refresh rate and "twice the performance".

Since it's getting a worldwide release, there's a high chance that it would eventually make its way to Malaysia. Personally, I would get one if it's reasonably priced. But do you think it's worth purchasing? Please share your thoughts in the comments on our Facebook page and stay tuned to TechNave for more updates about the ROG Ally!
