Microsoft Announces First Batch Of Accessories For The ROG Xbox Ally

With the ROG Xbox Ally pre-orders officially commencing, we’re beginning to observe some accessories emerging for the handheld, and Microsoft is specifically promoting three items through the official Xbox Wire platform at this moment.

Interestingly, two of these focus on storage solutions, with one being a microSD card and the other a 1TB – 4TB SSD expansion. The remaining item is a Premium Carrying Case, which is currently available on the ASUS website across various regions.

Let’s examine these three accessories in detail, and then we’ll share what else we’ve discovered:

“The Xbox Ally handheld selection is broadening with a variety of compatible accessories (sold separately), just in time for the holiday season. From rapid storage selections to protective gear, you will soon have additional methods to personalize your gaming experience on the Xbox Ally X and Xbox Ally. Starting today, players can pre-order the following accessories alongside their handheld:”

• SANDISK® microSD™ Card – Carry your compatible games wherever you go with a high-performance storage card designed especially for the Xbox Ally X and Xbox Ally (sold separately). With up to 2TB of storage capacity, enjoy lightning-fast downloads and speeds of up to 200MB/s for immediate play, anywhere.

• Seagate® FireCuda® 530R SSD – Unlock ultra-rapid speeds, exceptional durability, and unmatched performance. The FireCuda 530R SSD is compatible with Microsoft DirectStorage for uninterrupted gaming and is available in 1TB, 2TB, or 4TB sizes.

• ROG Xbox Ally (2-in-1) Premium Carrying Case – This Xbox co-branded case accommodates Xbox Ally handhelds, featuring a water-resistant exterior, soft fleece lining, and a distinctive zipper. It comes with a removable pouch for a 65W charger (sold separately) and easily fits in bags to shield your device from scratches or impacts.

These are evidently the three accessories that Microsoft wishes to emphasize at this time, but this doesn’t imply you won’t stumble upon alternative third-party cases and other items as well.

For instance, we have found a “Venom ROG Xbox Ally Carry Case & Screen Protector Starter Pack” currently available at Smyths in the UK for £24.99, and several other companies will likely present similar offerings soon.

Indeed, Microsoft states that this is “just the beginning” for ROG Xbox Ally accessories, with more arriving at some point in the future. Don’t be surprised if they continue to appear over the upcoming weeks leading up to October 16th!
