ASUS Republic of Gamers Presents Next‑Gen Gaming Innovations, Commemorates 20 Years of ROG Gaming Excellence in Australia

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) is commemorating two decades of commitment to gaming innovation and excellence.

On this 20‑year milestone, ROG reflects on a legacy defined by bold concepts, pioneering engineering and an unwavering dedication to its Australian community. Every milestone embodies the spirit of For Those Who Dare, a commitment to challenging conventions and redefining what gaming hardware can achieve.

This journey has been characterised by a consistent pursuit of technological advancement and a dedication to its user community, showcasing how far ROG has come in shaping the world of gaming hardware.

ROG also extends its influence beyond technology into culture through global co‑branding partnerships that merge gaming with music, fashion, art and entertainment. Collaborations with creators and iconic franchises, including KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS, empower players to co‑create within a growing cross‑domain ecosystem, reinforcing ROG’s role in shaping gaming identity and community worldwide.

“Two decades ago, ROG set out to define new possibilities in gaming, a spirit of continuous innovation that continues to guide us,” said Bradley Howe, Head of Consumer, ASUS Australia. “Our 20th anniversary is a moment to reflect on a legacy built on community and impactful technology, and to lay a strong foundation for gaming’s next chapter in Australia.”

Leading this milestone celebration in Australia is the launch of the ROG Zephyrus Duo, the world’s first 16‑inch dual‑screen OLED gaming laptop, alongside a comprehensive lineup of new hardware available from May 2026.

It represents a significant development in ROG’s product evolution, combining high performance with advanced visual and flexible design elements.
