PC hardware manufacturer ASUS and augmented reality (AR) hardware company XReal unveiled an exciting innovation at CES 2026: AR glasses designed to enhance portable gaming experiences. The new ASUS ROG XReal gaming glasses promise to deliver PC and console gameplay with the smooth performance of a 240Hz display, aiming to revolutionize how and where users play.
ASUS revealed the ROG XReal gaming glasses in a press release alongside a live demonstration at CES 2026. These are being touted as the “world’s first 240Hz micro-OLED FHD gaming glasses.” Each lens boasts a 57-degree field of view (FOV), creating a virtual display that can extend up to 171 inches when viewed from four meters away. This immersive display can be pinned in your virtual space, remaining fixed no matter where you move within your room.
For device compatibility, the ROG XReal gaming glasses feature a USB-C port that can connect to a wide range of devices, including smartphones, PCs, and gaming consoles. This is facilitated by ASUS’ DisplayWidget Center app, ensuring users can easily link their preferred platform. Additionally, the glasses offer seamless integration with ASUS’ ROG Ally handheld gaming system, allowing owners of this device to quickly set up and start using the XReal glasses with minimal hassle.
While primarily designed for enjoying movies, TV shows, and gaming at home, ASUS emphasizes the glasses’ portability. Users can create a personal virtual entertainment space on the go, provided they have access to a compatible smartphone or device for connection.
The ASUS ROG XReal gaming glasses are expected to launch sometime in the first half of 2026, promising an innovative leap forward in portable and immersive gaming technology.
