Microsoft has announced pricing and preorder details for the ROG Xbox Ally X and ROG Xbox Ally. The handhelds are slated for global availability on October 16, with revu reporting that the Philippine launch is on October 7.
The ROG Xbox Ally X is priced at USD 999.99 (~PHP 58K), while the ROG Xbox Ally retails for USD 599.99 (~PHP 35K). Preorders are currently live in 38 markets, including the US, UK, and Japan.
The rollout for other countries is to follow after the initial launch date. The Philippines’ early access to the handhelds follows the earlier availability of the first-gen ROG Ally and ROG Ally X.
Both models were made by ASUS in partnership with Microsoft, positioned to compete against other handheld gaming PCs. The Xbox Ally X offers high-end performance and more capacity compared to the base model.
However, the handhelds stand out with Xbox-integrated features designed for portable gaming. The final word on regional pricing has yet to be confirmed by ASUS and Microsoft as this is a developing story.
Does PH launch mean it will be available to purchase earlier than the global release date of Oct-16?
