The handheld in question is actually an Xbox-branded version of the Asus ROG Ally 2, the successor to an already popular handheld PC. The Xbox version, previously reported under the name Project Kennan, looks almost exactly like the also-leaked standard version of the ROG Ally 2, but with two differences. The Aerith Plus processor is the next generation of the Steam Deck chip, meaning the Xbox version of the handheld could be a major step up from Valve’s handheld PC. The new Xbox-branded ROG Ally will face stiff competition from the Switch 2 and Steam Deck. That handheld is purportedly a handheld version of the Xbox, meaning it can play the entire console’s library, rather than just the titles already available on PC through Game Pass.
