Microsoft unveiled its long-awaited handheld gaming console, the ROG Xbox Ally, in partnership with Asus. Launching late 2025, it offers access to the Game Pass library and boasts two versions: a standard and an 'X' model with enhanced specs. The Ally runs on Windows, allowing access to various gaming platforms beyond Game Pass. While its price remains undisclosed, its heavier weight compared to competitors like the Nintendo Switch 2 is a potential drawback. The announcement coincided with several new Game Pass titles, including highly anticipated releases like Persona 4 Revival and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7.
