Asus unveils ROG Ally handheld gaming consoles: What's new in 2025 models
Asus, in collaboration with Microsoft, has announced two new handheld gaming consoles—ROG Xbox Ally and the higher-spec ROG Xbox Ally X—as part of its ROG lineup. Announced at the Xbox Games Showcase, the consoles are set to launch during the 2025 holiday season, with pricing and pre-order details to be revealed in the coming months. These devices blend Xbox and Windows experiences in a console-like handheld format, addressing long-standing usability issues on small screens. Asus ROG Ally series: What is new According to Microsoft, the new handheld gaming consoles from Asus boot directly into a streamlined Xbox interface instead of the standard Windows desktop. This full-screen mode removes unnecessary clutter, improves memory usage, and enhances battery efficiency. Users still have the option to switch back to desktop mode if needed. The interface unifies libraries across platforms—Steam, Epic Games Store, Game Pass, and others—into a controller-friendly layout. Additional updates to Xbox Game Bar allow users to access settings, notifications, and apps like Discord using only the controller. Users can even log in with a PIN using the controller, mirroring the console experience. Both models feature Xbox-style grips and impulse triggers, designed to enhance comfort and tactile feedback. The Ally X adds haptics to simulate terrain and combat sensations in games. Microsoft claims that the new Xbox mode consumes one-third less power in sleep mode, further improving battery life. ROG Xbox Ally (White): Optimised for 720p gaming ROG Xbox Ally X (Black): Designed for higher performance, targeting 1080p Both consoles feature a 7-inch fullHD 120Hz display with variable refresh rate support and Gorilla Glass Victus + DXC anti-reflection coating.

Casemiro calls for Brazil to step forward
SAO PAULO, June 8 (Xinhua) -- Veteran midfielder Casemiro says Brazil will look to rediscover its attacking instincts when it meets Paraguay in a FIFA World Cup qualifier on Tuesday. Brazil held Ecuador to a goalless draw in Guayaquil on Thursday in Carlo Ancelotti's debut as manager, showing defensive discipline but little attacking threat. Casemiro, recalled by Ancelotti to the national squad after an absence of almost two years, said Brazil would need to take a more proactive approach to break down an in-form Paraguay at Corinthians Arena in Sao Paulo. "Each game is a different story," said the 33-year-old, who played under Ancelotti at Real Madrid before his 2022 move to Manchester United. "It will be a game with a lot of possession and Paraguay wanting to play on the counterattack. We will need to be switched on mentally and take our chances when they come. "Brazil's main characteristic is always to attack, but having defensive solidity is already a step forward. There's no point in me saying here that we're playing well but the team's attitude in the last game was good. Now we have to prioritize the offensive aspect a little more." Casemiro also praised Ancelotti's early impact on the squad, saying the Italian had brought "experience" and "peace" to a team in transition. The former Sao Paulo and Porto player said he is enjoying his best form in years after a turbulent start to his spell at Manchester United. "This has been one of the most important years of my career," he said. "I never stopped working and that has allowed me to come back stronger. Hard work always pays off and now I'm here, not because I know the coach, but because I earned it." The winner of the clash will secure a ticket to next year's World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada - but only if Uruguay beats Venezuela in Montevideo the same day.
