ASUS Republic of Gamers, also known as ROG, has announced a new global partnership with South Korean esports organisation DRX.
According to the official release, the partnership will run for two years. During this time, ROG will be the official gaming hardware partner for DRX. This includes support for DRX teams competing in VALORANT and League of Legends, as well as all other DRX rosters.
DRX players will use ROG gaming peripherals during training and competitions that are specifically designed for professional esports players. The gear includes gaming mice, keyboards, and other accessories built for high-level play.
As a part of this agreement, ROG and DRX also plan to work together on global content for fans. This will include behind-the-scenes videos, player interviews, and features showing how professional players set up their gaming equipment and prepare for matches.
Kris Huang, General Manager of the ASUS Gaming & Workspace Gear business unit, said, “Esports is where performance truly matters, where every click, every flick, and every decision can define the outcome. Partnering with DRX allows us to work directly with world-class players across multiple titles, gaining invaluable feedback that helps us refine the ROG Ace Esports product lineup while delivering authentic, high-performance experiences for pros and fans alike.”
On the other hand, DRX CEO Sun Il Yang explained, “DRX is built on the notion of spirit of challenge, and we found a perfect mirror of that philosophy in ASUS ROG. By aligning with a brand that shares our relentless pursuit of excellence in performance and innovation, we are ensuring that our players have ROG’s world-class peripherals to achieve success on the global stage. We look forward to a shared commitment to excellence alongside ROG.”
ASUS also said that a key part of the partnership is the ROG Ace Esports Collection. This is a range of gaming peripherals made specifically for competitive esports and developed with input from professional players.
DRX athletes will use products from this lineup, including the ROG Harpe II Ace gaming mouse and the ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard. In addition, DRX players will help test and give feedback on future ROG esports products to help ROG refine its gear based on real player experience.
