ASUS JAPAN announced on September 10, 2026 that its Tokyo Game Show booth would center on ROG Edition 20, a lineup marking the 20th anniversary of the Republic of Gamers brand. The show runs September 17 to September 21 at Makuhari Messe, with the booth at 06-N03 in Hall 6. Several products get their first showing in Japan there: the ROG XBOX Ally X20 handheld, the roughly 104L ROG G1000 Edition 20 desktop PC, the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-G Edition 20 monitor, and the ROG Crosshair X870E Edition 20 motherboard. The ROG Swift OLED PG259QWS Ace and ROG Strix OLED XG259QWPG Ace monitors, announced at COMPUTEX 2026 and Gamescom 2026, also appear in Japan for the first time. Public days are September 19, 20, and 21, and visitors can play titles on the ROG XBOX Ally X20 and on ASUS and ROG gaming PCs.

A week later, ASUS JAPAN put dates on four separate ROG products. The ROG Swift OLED PG27UCWM and PG32UCWM monitors are planned for around mid-October, the ROG Raikiri II Pro PC controller for around late October, and the ROG NUC 16 Mini PC for around November. The monitors use 4K True Tandem RGB OLED panels at 31.5 inches and 26.5 inches, with a Dual Mode that switches between 4K 240Hz and Full HD 480Hz and a 0.03ms GTG response time. The Raikiri II Pro supports polling rates up to 8,000Hz wired and over 2.4GHz wireless, uses replaceable TMR joysticks, and runs up to 79 hours on a 2.4GHz connection. The ROG NUC 16 fits an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU into a chassis of about 3 liters.

The ROG NUC 16 Edition 20 is the anniversary model among the dated products. ASUS prices it at 1,200,000 yen and sells it only through the ASUS Store, while the standard ROG NUC 16 reaches Japan roughly a month earlier. That split puts the two Mini PCs in different channels at very different prices.
