ASUS ROG joins hands with Hideo Kojima for jaw-dropping gamer gear
ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has announced a collaboration with world-renowned game studio Kojima Productions, as well as the launch of the ROG Flow Z13-KJP along with a new lineup of KJP peripherals.
ROG and Kojima Productions are driven to create products and experiences tailored for gamers.
At the heart of this collaboration is 'Ludens' — the belief that humans are not only thinkers, but also players and creators.
The collaboration combines the spirit of the ROG motto For Those Who Dare with Kojima Productions’ vision From Sapiens to Ludens.
Ludens are the ones who experiment, mod, create, and challenge what games — and gaming hardware — can be.
By uniting cutting-edge ROG hardware with 'Kojima Productions’ visionary storytelling, this partnership is a tribute to that spirit: everything we build, every detail we design, is for gamers everywhere — For Ludens Who Dare.
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 GPU compute units on a single chip for high-end gaming and content creation.
Unlike traditional systems with separate RAM for the CPU and GPU, the Flow Z13-KJP features a unified memory architecture that allows dynamic allocation of a massive 128GB pool, optimizing performance across gaming and creative tasks.
With 50 TOPS of NPU power, it can run LLMs locally for enhanced productivity and security.
The 13.4-inch 2.5K Nebula Display with a 180Hz refresh rate and 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, paired with a detachable keyboard, makes the Z13-KJP a versatile 2-in-1 device ideal for immersive gameplay, cinematic visuals, and creative work.
Limited-edition peripheral lineup
This collaboration yielded more than just the Flow Z13-KJP. The full lineup, designed in collaboration with Yoji Shinkawa and the team at Kojima Productions, features some one-of-a-kind peripherals that would be right at home in the collection of any KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS superfan.
Bold and vibrant white, the ROG Delta II-KJP offers the incredible sound signature gamers have come to expect from ROG’s latest headsets with a nod to this distinct design language. Meanwhile, the ROG Keris II Origin-KJP Edition combines tuned, lightweight ergonomics of our Keris mice with a gold, grey and white color scheme.
Finally, the lineup includes the ROG Scabbard II XXL-KJP, a premium mouse mat with the outline of Ludens staring boldly into the future.
All three of these accessories proudly bear the phrase For Ludens Who Dare, a playful mashup of the ROG and Kojima Productions' respective slogans. This hand-drawn design is illustrated by Shinkawa himself.
