Asus ROG partners with AMD for Dreamhack 2026 showcase

ASUS ROG will return to DreamHack 2026. For this year's event, Asus ROG is celebrating its 20th anniversary, partnering with AMD to highlight upcoming products and provide exclusive demos and other activities for attendees to participate in.

At DreamHack 2026, Asus will host the first public hands‑on for the ROG XREAL R1 Gaming Glasses, giving attendees a look at ROG’s AR‑powered portable gaming concept. ASUS will also present the ROG Flow Z13 KOJIMA Edition, created in collaboration with Yoji Shinkawa for the “Ludens Who Dare” project. The Flow Z13‑KJP is powered by the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 with Radeon 8060S graphics, combining 16 Zen 5 CPU cores and 40 RDNA 3.5 compute units for high‑end gaming and content creation.

A Vesaro sim‑racing challenge will run throughout the weekend, featuring an AMD Radeon‑powered IPro Formula rig. Visitors can compete for the fastest lap, with prizes including the latest ROG OLED displays. ASUS will also showcase the ROG Xbox Ally X handheld, developed with Xbox and built around the AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor for portable gaming.

A free‑to‑play zone will be available to attendees as well, so you can get some gaming time in on some very high-end setups from the likes of SCAN and PCSpecialist, built using Asus hardware and peripherals. You'll also get to see their OLED gaming monitors up-close and in action, which could be good if you are deciding whether or not to make the jump to OLED gaming. If you fancy putting your skills to the test, you can also compete in a 2v2 Wingman tournament for another chance at a prize, or you can try your luck with Asus's prize machines.

DreamHack 2026 begins on March 27th at the NEC in Birmingham.
