Fresh ROG Gear: Azoth X, Keris II Origin, and More Announced
ASUS ROG today announced a fresh wave of high-performance gaming peripherals, catering to both competitive players and aesthetic enthusiasts. The new lineup features several exciting products. It includes the ROG Azoth X gaming keyboard and the ROG Keris II Origin gaming mouse. There’s also the expansive ROG Scabbard II mousepad in Arctic Gray XXL. Rounding it out is the stylish ROG Delta II headset in Moonlight White. These additions promise a blend of cutting-edge technology, customisation options, and striking designs.
ROG Azoth X Gaming Keyboard: Precision and Personalisation Unleashed
The ROG Azoth X keyboard is a 75% layout masterpiece designed for ultimate control and personalisation. Featuring ROG Stellar-themed dye-sublimated PBT keycaps with a unique three-sided translucent design for enhanced RGB lighting, this keyboard is a visual standout. Underneath, hot-swappable ROG NX Snow Mechanical Switches V2 offer smooth keystrokes and softer acoustics.
The south-facing PCB ensures wide switch compatibility, while a sophisticated internal structure comprising five dampening layers, a gasket mount, and an FR4 positioning plate aims to deliver a refined typing experience. An integrated OLED display provides system information and status updates, complemented by an intuitive three-way knob for easy adjustments. Connectivity options include low-latency 2.4GHz ROG SpeedNova wireless, Bluetooth (supporting up to three devices), and wired USB. The keyboard also comes with an extended silicone wrist rest and adjustable tilt angles for optimal comfort.
ROG Keris II Origin Gaming Mouse: Lightweight Design, Pro-Level Performance
For gamers seeking precision and agility, the ROG Keris II Origin mouse boasts an ergonomic and lightweight 64-gram design, honed with input from esports professionals. It features three-zone customisable RGB lighting and the user-friendly ROG Push-Fit Switch Socket II for easy switch swapping. The mouse is packed with ROG-exclusive technologies, including the ROG Micro Switch II with a 100-million-click lifespan, the high-precision 42,000-dpi ROG AimPoint Pro optical sensor with track-on-glass capability, and low-latency ROG SpeedNova wireless technology.
The Keris II Origin offers tri-mode connectivity (wired USB, Bluetooth, and 2.4GHz RF) and is compatible with the optional ROG Polling Rate Booster for up to an 8K Hz polling rate. The inclusion of the ROG Omni Receiver allows for connecting multiple compatible devices via a single USB dongle. Onboard controls provide quick access to frequently used settings, and the mouse comes bundled with anti-slip grip tape, a ROG Paracord cable, and 100% PTFE mouse feet for smooth gliding.
ROG Scabbard II Arctic Gray XXL Mousepad: Style and Smoothness Combined
Expanding their surface options, ROG introduces the Scabbard II Arctic Gray XXL mousepad. This new iteration features an Arctic Gray cloth surface, ideal for lighter-themed setups. A special coating provides resistance against water, oil, and dust, ensuring consistent mouse glides. The anti-fray, flat-stitched edges are now narrower for improved durability and a cleaner look.
ROG Delta II Moonlight White Headset: Immersive Audio in a Sleek White Finish
Completing the white aesthetic is the ROG Delta II Moonlight White headset. This versatile headset offers tri-mode connectivity with Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless (utilising ROG SpeedNova technology for low-latency performance), and a wired 3.5mm option. It delivers immersive audio through 50mm titanium-plated diaphragm drivers and supports high-res 24-bit 96kHz audio in 2.4GHz mode. The refined wireless sound signature aims for a realistic audio experience.
For clear communication, a 10mm super-wideband boom microphone captures a broad frequency range. The DualFlow Audio feature allows simultaneous audio playback from two connected devices (2.4GHz and Bluetooth). The headset boasts an impressive battery life of up to 110 hours in 2.4GHz mode (with RGB off) and offers a quick-charge function providing 11 hours of use with just a 15-minute charge. Comfort is prioritised with a lightweight 318-gram design and two sets of ergonomic D-shaped ear cushions.
