Asus has taken to Twitter once again to tease its next generation ROG Ally handheld gaming device. The 34 seconds video doesn’t show the actual product but does hint at what one might expect.
The video shows the ROG mascot working on the next generation Ally. The items on the screen read ‘marathon stamina’, ‘more capacity’, ‘faster speeds’, and ‘fresh look!’. All of this seems pretty self explanatory, in that in the very least we can expect the next Ally to have improved performance, increased storage, better battery life, and a new design. The video also shows the original Ally and the ROG Raikiri Pro controller being merged together but it’s not clear what that alludes to.
Considering the timing of the tweet, one could understandably assume that this might be an April Fool’s joke. However, it’s worth remembering that the original Ally was announced on April 1, two years ago.

The company launched the original ROG Ally in 2023. In our own review, we praised the device for its wide game compatibility and performance but found the battery life and software situation lacking, along with a host of minor design issues. The company launched the Ally X in 2024, a not-quite-second-generation model that fixed many of the shortcomings of the Ally while packing the same processor.
With what is mostly likely to now be the Ally 2, we expect many of the advancements the Ally X to be carried over and finally merged with an updated processor and display. There is also supposed to be an Xbox-branded handheld device by ASUS in the works, but that is likely to be a completely separate product for a later time.
