ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has just expanded its growing collection of gaming gear with a fresh lineup of peripherals announced on April 12, 2025. This release focuses on products built for gamers who care about performance, customization, and, interestingly, setups with lighter, white-themed aesthetics. The new range covers everything from keyboards and mice to mousepads and headsets — with a few notable upgrades in both function and form.
A Custom Keyboard for DIY Fans
Leading the pack is the ROG Azoth X keyboard, a 75% layout mechanical keyboard made with custom builds in mind. This isn’t your average off-the-shelf board. It’s loaded with five layers of dampening, including silicone and PORON® materials, to give each keystroke a smoother, quieter feel. The hot-swappable ROG NX Snow switches (V2) allow users to tweak and customize their typing experience easily, while the translucent PBT keycaps show off RGB lighting with a unique ROG Stellar-themed design. Features like a small OLED display for system info, a three-way control knob, and a matching silicone wrist rest add to its practicality. Plus, it supports both wired and wireless modes via Bluetooth and ROG SpeedNova’s low-latency 2.4GHz connection.
A Lightweight Mouse Built for Control
Another highlight is the ROG Keris II Origin mouse, aimed at players who value speed and precision. Weighing just 64 grams, its shape is designed based on feedback from esports professionals, making it adaptable to various grip styles. The mouse features a 42,000-dpi ROG AimPoint Pro sensor for accurate tracking, even on glass surfaces. It’s also equipped with swappable ROG Micro Switch II buttons that boast a 100-million-click lifespan. Tri-mode connectivity means it works wired, through Bluetooth, or via 2.4GHz RF. ASUS even made room for an 8K Hz polling rate booster (sold separately) and bundled extras like grip tape and PTFE feet to keep movements swift and controlled.
A White-Themed Mousepad to Match
If you’re into cohesive setups, the ROG Scabbard II Arctic Gray XXL mousepad is designed to complement light or white-themed gaming environments. Its oversized cloth surface has a special coating that repels water, oil, and dust — a practical touch for heavy use. The anti-fray stitched edges are slimmer than usual, offering durability without unnecessary bulk.
A Versatile Headset with Serious Battery Life
Lastly, the ROG Delta II Moonlight White headset rounds out the collection. Designed for both casual and competitive play, it supports 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth, and 3.5mm wired modes, covering PC, console, and mobile platforms. With 50mm titanium-plated drivers and high-resolution audio over wireless, it aims to deliver an immersive soundstage. The wideband boom mic promises clear voice pickup, and DualFlow Audio lets you play from one device while managing calls from another. It also stands out for its 110-hour battery life in wireless mode and lightweight build.
Conclusion
This new lineup from ASUS ROG is clearly aimed at gamers looking for a mix of performance, customization, and aesthetic consistency, particularly for lighter-colored setups. While the brand continues to lean on its reputation for quality and innovation, it’s interesting to see these refinements across various categories. The products are expected to be available soon, though exact details on pricing and availability will follow from ASUS.
