A recent leak has revealed possible pricing for the highly anticipated ROG Xbox Ally, suggesting Microsoft’s handheld gaming device could hit the market at a premium. The leak comes ahead of the official announcement and has caught the attention of gamers worldwide.
Premium Specs, Premium Price
The ROG Xbox Ally, unveiled during the June Xbox Showcase, is Microsoft’s bold entry into the handheld console space. According to reports, the standard model will come with a 7-inch Full HD (1080p) display, a 512GB M.2 SSD, and an 80Wh battery. The upgraded ROG Xbox Ally X is expected to feature a 1TB SSD and a 60Wh battery.
Leaked Pricing Details
A preview reportedly found on the ASUS website, as cited by 3djuegos, lists the ROG Xbox Ally at €599 (around $700 / £520). The more powerful Ally X is expected to cost €899 (about $1,050 / £780). These prices have not yet been officially confirmed by ASUS or Microsoft and could change closer to launch.

Competing at the Top End
If accurate, the ROG Xbox Ally’s price would place it well above key rivals. For example, the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 is priced at $449.99, while Valve’s Steam Deck OLED with 1TB storage is selling for $649. This positions the Ally as a high-performance, premium device targeting serious gamers.
Market Reaction and Expectations
The handheld gaming market is growing rapidly, with increasing competition and innovation. Microsoft appears to be betting on top-tier hardware to differentiate its product. However, with a higher price tag, the ROG Xbox Ally may face resistance unless it delivers exceptional performance and a strong game library.
Gamers are now eagerly awaiting official details from ASUS and Microsoft, especially confirmation of pricing, features, and release timelines. Until then, the leaked figures are fueling speculation and raising expectations across the gaming community.
