The upcoming ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming device may be priced around RM4400, based on a leaked European listing. Its standard counterpart, the ROG Xbox Ally, is expected to launch at a lower price of around RM2950.

These handhelds are part of a collaboration between Asus and Xbox, aiming to bring a Windows-based portable gaming experience with direct integration into the Xbox ecosystem.

Possible launch on 16 October 2025, Pre-orders from 20 August

A recent leak suggests that both the ROG Xbox Ally and the upgraded Ally X are set for a European release on 16 October 2025. Pre-orders are expected to begin during Xbox’s Gamescom presentation on 20 August 2025.

The leaked European prices are €599 (approximately RM2950) for the ROG Xbox Ally and €899 (approximately RM4400) for the ROG Xbox Ally X. While these are early indicators, actual pricing in Malaysia may vary depending on taxes, duties, and local distribution costs.

What this could mean for Malaysia

While the ROG Ally series has gained popularity globally, the potential entry of the Xbox-branded models could draw even more interest from Malaysian gamers.

The integration of Windows 11 and Xbox features suggests these devices are targeting users who want full PC gaming functionality on the go. However, the price could be a barrier for some, especially with higher-end models nearing the RM4500 mark.

If the local release follows the global timeline, Malaysians can expect to see official announcements and availability in late Q4 2025 or early 2026. It remains to be seen if Malaysia will get early access during the global pre-order window.
