Asus ROG Ally 2 Spotted via US FCC Listing Alongside ‘Project Kennan’ Xbox Handheld

Asus is expected to launch its second generation handheld gaming console, the ROG Ally 2, in the coming weeks, and the design and specifications of the upcoming device have now surfaced online. A leaked listing on a US regulator’s website has revealed that the Asus ROG Ally 2 and the company’s Xbox-branded handheld (codenamed ‘Project Kennan’) will be equipped with 7-inch 120Hz displays, and AMD processors. Images of these handheld gaming consoles also suggest that they will feature a revamped outer design that resembles a gaming controller.

Asus ROG Ally 2 Could Arrive in Two Variants

A listing (via 91Mobiles) on Indonesia’s SDPPI certification website indicates that Asus is working on two models for the ROG Ally 2 and that the handheld gaming console will be available in a ****** (RC73X1) and white (RC73YA) models. These model numbers are also mentioned in listings on the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) website.

of the Asus ROG Ally 2 from reports on Asus and MediaTek on the US FCC website. The ****** model bears a similar appearance to its white counterpart, but it has a dedicated Xbox button. The white variant also has a button in the same location, but it doesn’t have the same logo.

The role of the dedicated Xbox button on the ****** variant is currently unclear, but a recent report suggested that

was working on improving Windows handheld consoles with the ‘Xbox experience’. Most handheld gaming consoles run on Windows, which doesn’t offer an experience optimised for smaller displays, unlike Valve’s SteamOS.

The ****** variant of the ROG Ally 2 will reportedly be equipped with an octa-core AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme (36W) processor along with 64GB of LPDDR5x-8533 RAM. Meanwhile, the white variant is said to be equipped with a less powerful AMD Aeirth Plus (20W) processor, and there’s no word on the amount of RAM on this model.

Both models are equipped with a 7-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The leaked images give us a good look at screens on the ****** and white models but they’re turned off, so we have no idea about the software running on both consoles. Previous reports indicate that the Project Kennan device would “combine” the Windows and Xbox experiences.

Last month, Asus teased the arrival of a next-gen ROG Ally console with several hardware upgrades, but stopped short of revealing whether it was the Xbox branded device. At the time, the official Xbox account responded to the company’s post on X (formerly

) with a meme, sparking speculation that the upcoming device would be an Xbox branded handheld.

It’s worth noting that Asus is expected to unveil new devices at Computex 2025 in Taipei, and the ROG Ally 2 (and the Project Kennan console) could make their debut alongside other upcoming devices.

could also make an announcement around the same time, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for news coming out of Computex, which begins on May 20.
