The release date for ROG Xbox Ally-the first portable Xbox of another company-it got on the internet, suggesting that there are only two months until she was available to a game similar to the steam deck.
According to Dealabs“Visible Billbil-Kun, ROG Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X will be launched on October 16, which will allow you to easily play the Xbox game library on the go.
Pre -sale orders will be opened on August 20, according to Dealabs earlier, and the Xbox ally set at the expense of EUR 599. Alternatively, Premium Xbox Ally X will cost € 899 (American prices to be confirmed).
Dealabs warns that this release date has been verified only through the European premiere of the machine – so there may be a slight difference for other markets, although probably not much.
This month, Microsoft is to present more ROG Xbox Ally in Gamescom, with a hand that will be available for public trying at the Microsoft commercial stand, along with the highly expected Hollow Knight: Silksong.
But whether it gives us a more powerful understanding of the elusive release date of Silksong remains uncertain. During the June presentation Xbox Games 2025, the president of Xbox Sarah Bond stated that Silksong would be “available during the premiere and in Game Pass, when Ally seemed this year” – leading many fans to convince that the game was set in a queue as the title of premiere for Handheld.
However, when writing about the official non -compliance of the game, the Silksong Cherry programmer team then explained that the game was not sitting, waiting for the launch of ROG Ally X. Instead, according to the marketing manager Matthew “Leth” Griffin, fans should simply expect that the game will come before Christmas.
“I confirmed before the holidays,” Griffin wrote, adding: “We are not attached to the issue of the console.” And only in the case of confusion that was asked about which vacation is referred to, Griffin added: “Christmas yes”.
Silksong will be able to play Gamescom at both Xbox and Nintendo stands, in great marketing pressure. Certainly it can’t be any longer?
“Powerful equipment, improved operating system and ideal ergonomics for manual games are all key areas that are addressed,” Ign wrote after going to Xbox Ally X, “but it should not cost that the box is a enormous swath of interested people”.
