ASUS Australia

ROG Falcata gaming keyboard, esports-orientated ROG Ace collection, and exclusive partnerships underscore a unique dedication to the gaming community

ASUS Republic of Gamers today reaffirmed its long-standing commitment to esports with a slew of new product announcements at Computex 2025, including the ROG Falcata 75% gaming keyboard, esports-oriented ROG Harpe II Ace gaming mouse and Strix Ace XG248 gaming monitor, the ROG Courser and Destrier Core gaming chairs, as well as the ROG Sheath II XXL mouse pad.

ROG Ace offerings are developed alongside esports pros and boast cutting-edge features to deliver the precision, speed, and reliability to help gamers of all levels reach their full potential. VALORANT Champions winner Max Demon1 Mazanov had a hand in shaping the Harpe II Ace, resulting in a shell that's optimized for claw and fingertip grip users.

"At ROG, we believe greatness in esports starts with gear that's built to perform under pressure," said Kris Huang, General Manager of the ASUS Gaming & Workspace Gear business unit. "Our mission is simple: to equip the next generation of champions with the tools they need to reach the top."

ROG also announced a new brand partnership with legendary CS2 player Mathieu ZywOo Herbaut, who will help test and develop new keyboard products to give gamers an upper hand in gameplay. Additionally, ROG cultivates partnerships with multiple esports teams, including long-standing relationships with NRG Sports and Team Vitality, with ROG equipping the latter's Counter-Strike and VALORANT teams.

ROG Falcata gaming keyboard

The Falcata is a 75% split gaming keyboard designed for precision and flexibility. This versatile gaming keyboard adapts to different gaming setups, allowing users to use the left keyboard module to free up desktop space for their mousing hand. The Falcata provides more room for mouse movement—more room than even a 60% keyboard.

The hot-swappable ROG HFX V2 Magnetic Switch used across the keyboard provides gamers with refined keystrokes that can be customized for 0.1–3.5mm actuation and fine-tuned at 0.01mm intervals. This pre-lubed magnetic switch is engineered for a solid feel with lightning-fast performance and a 100-million-keypress lifespan. The switch has a polycarbonate top housing, while the stem and bottom housing are made of POM plastic. Plus, the walled stem design enhances stability and keeps out dust. A unique snap-fit mechanism prevents key wobble from affecting magnet movement, ensuring precise and accurate actuation with every keystroke.

The exceptionally precise ROG Hall Sensor offers accurate input detection, reduces electrical noise and interference, and increases magnetic flux tolerance for superior performance.

The multifunction wheel and button let users tweak a variety of settings including actuation point, sensitivity of the Rapid Trigger feature, volume, media playback, keyboard lighting, and more. The Rapid Trigger toggle along the top edge of the Falcata allows users to easily switch to the fastest typing response and key repeat rates.

The Falcata offers an ultra-responsive 8000Hz polling rate and features ROG SpeedNova 8K wireless technology for up to 610 hours of battery life. Meanwhile, tri-mode connectivity enables users to connect the Falcata to three devices simultaneously via Bluetooth®, 2.4GHz wireless, or wired USB.

Integrated four-layer dampening absorbs pinging noises and offers a more cushioned typing feel to enhance typing experiences. In addition, a pair of detachable silicone wrist rests perfectly complement the keyboard's unique tilt angles for unmatched comfort.

ROG Harpe II Ace gaming mouse

Designed for esports, products in the ROG Ace collection are developed alongside professional gamers and deliver the speed, precision, and reliability that the best in the game can put their full trust in. Every product that carries the Ace moniker is a testament to ROG's commitment to developing industry-leading gear to help players fulfil their potential.

Engineered for pro-grade performance, the Harpe II Ace is perfectly balanced to enable effortless flicks, swift swipes, and absolute precision for competitive play. An innovative bio-based nylon construction re-duces weight and enhances impact resistance, while built-in ROG SpeedNova 8K wireless technology delivers exceptional precision and reliability, along with an amazing up to 8000Hz polling rate. The Harpe II Ace is armed with the 42,000-dpi ROG AimPoint Pro optical sensor with track-on-glass technology for exceptional control. Plus, the ROG-exclusive optical micro switches used in the Harpe II Ace have an astounding 100-million click lifespan and deliver clear-cut signals with instant actuation.

Developed with input from VALORANT star Demon1 and other esports pros, the ROG Harpe II Ace is shaped and has been tested to deliver the control and consistency needed for top-tier competition. "Being part of the ROG mouse development was an incredible opportunity," said Demon1. "I got to bring my experience as a pro directly into the design process—down to the shape, the clicks, the weight, everything. I'm genuinely excited for players to try it out, and I hope it becomes a go-to for pros who want gear that can keep up with them."

Taking the iconic claw-grip shape of the ROG Harpe Ace Aim Lab Edition as a starting point, the refined silhouette of the Harpe II Ace better accommodates both claw and fingertip grips. The sidewalls of the mouse gently taper inwards, making the Harpe II Ace easier to lift, while a precisely-tuned incline from the buttons to the hump promotes better hand balance and stability. The slightly-lowered hump allows for finer micro-adjustments with fingertip grips, while still offering solid palm support for claw-style users. Lastly, the side buttons are positioned and angled to provide clear separation between the two, ensuring both are within easy reach of the thumb and reducing the chance of accidental mis-clicks.

The next-generation shell of the Harpe II Ace weighs just 48 grams and is 11% lighter than the Harpe Ace Aim Lab Edition. Made using castor oil instead of conventional petroleum, this bio-based nylon reduces the carbon footprint of each shell by 70% compared to regular nylon material. The internal structure has been strengthened to prevent sidewall flex, while the smooth, matte surface coating effectively manages sweat and grease to ensure a secure grip. Additionally, large PTFE mouse feet with rounded edges provide a smoother glide and better control compared to previous Harpe Ace models.

With ROG SpeedNova 8K wireless technology, the Harpe II Ace is the first gaming mouse that utilizes a next-gen MCU chip to offer real-time, ultrafast true wireless 8000Hz polling rate performance. Zone mode lets gamers get straight into competitive play by optimizing hardware settings, priming the Harpe II Ace for top-tier performance in an instant. Activating Zone Mode pushes the polling rate up to 8000Hz, ensures heightened responsiveness by staying in a permanent active state, conserves battery by switching off RGB lighting, and declutters data signals by disconnecting ROG Gear Link.

ROG Gear Link allows gamers to configure the Harpe II Ace via a web browser, without any software
