The ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming device will cost you $1,000
The ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming device will cost you $1,000

Microsoft has finally revealed how much the ROG Xbox Ally handheld consoles will cost you, now that they're available for preorder. The ROG Xbox Ally X, which the company describes as the "ultimate high-performance handheld" that's "built for the most demanding players," will set you back $1,000.
Meanwhile, the ROG Xbox Ally "for everyone from the casual player to the avid enthusiast" is priced at $600, and you can pre-order that model from other retailers like Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart. They're a bit more expensive than ASUS' regular ROG Ally systems, which are priced from $500 to $800. 
The company unveiled the devices during the Xbox Games Showcase at Summer Game Fest in June, with the promise that it was going to be available by this year's holiday shopping season. It revealed a couple of months later that the consoles will be on store shelves by October 16, but it didn't announce their prices until now. 
Microsoft teamed up with ASUS' ROG division to develop the handhelds. They're powered by Windows 11 and lets you play any Xbox game you've purchased, whether you bought it on your console or your computer, as well as PC games from any store that you install directly on the device. You can use it to stream Xbox games from your console anywhere in your home or from the Xbox Cloud Gaming service. And yes, you'll be able to continue where you left off when you jump from one device to another. At launch, Xbox will mark thousands of games as Handheld Optimized or Mostly Compatible to indicate if they play well on handhelds. 
In the US, you can preorder the consoles from the Xbox website, ASUS' website or from local retailers like Best Buy. A SanDisk microSD card designed specifically for the handhelds and a SeaGate SSD that supports Microsoft DirectStorage are now also available for preorder. 
You can also preorder the consoles in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of Korea, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, Vietnam, Egypt, Greece, Hungary, Indonesia, Slovenia, South Africa, Thailand and Ukraine. All these markets, including the US, are getting the console on October 16. The handhelds will be available in additional markets in the future, as well, namely in Brazil, China, India, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Philippines and Switzerland.
