Asus Reportedly Developing Xbox-Branded Handheld Gaming PC for 2025

The handheld, codenamed 'Project Kennan,' is part of Microsoft's effort to unify Xbox and Windows gaming experiences.

The Xbox-branded handheld is reportedly being developed by Asus, not directly by Microsoft, under the codename 'Project Kennan.'
The device will run on Windows with a modified Xbox-like interface as part of Microsoft's 'Project Bayside' initiative to unify gaming libraries across platforms.
The handheld will support Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Cloud Gaming, and other storefronts like Steam and Epic Games Store, offering broad compatibility.
Speculated pricing for the device ranges from $499 to $599, with potential hardware configurations using AMD's Z2 chipsets.
Microsoft and Asus have not officially announced the device, but reports suggest a reveal could take place this summer ahead of a possible late 2025 launch.
