Who among us hasn’t looked at the ASUS ROG Flow Z13<\/a> and said, “That’s great and all, but what if it had more Hideo Kojima?” Well, our cries have been heard. Behold, the ROG Flow Z13-KJP, a collaboration between ASUS and Kojima Productions.<\/p>\n

On the inside, this model is no different than the standard version we reviewed<\/a> last May. The device takes a Surface Pro-like form factor and beefs it up into something that\u2019s more like a gaming laptop. (Ergo, ASUS’s pitch of the product as a “gaming tablet.”)<\/p>\n

But on the outside, you’ll find a design “for Ludens who dare.” The Death Stranding<\/a> influence is evident, but you may pick up on some Metal Gear-adjacent touches as well. The tablet’s gold color, symbols and integrated carbon fiber conjure Kojima\u2019s Ludens mascot. This variant is slightly larger than the standard one, most noticeably in the detachable keyboard.<\/p>\n

There will also be matching accessories available, including a mouse, case, headphones and a desk mat. Depending on your region, those may or may not be bundled with the device. (We’ll update this story when we find out more.)<\/p>\n

Fortunately, once the design novelty wears off, you’re left with a fairly powerful gaming machine. The Copilot PC has a 13.4-inch IPS touchscreen with a 180Hz refresh rate and 500 nits of brightness. Its port selection is surprisingly generous: two USB 4 Type-C ports, one USB-A port, HDMI 2.1, 3.5mm audio and a microSD slot. The Ryzen AI Max+ 395 chip inside has integrated graphics that punch above what you’d expect. You can configure it with up to 128GB LPDDR5X 8000 RAM.<\/p>\n

More Kojima than you ever expected from a “gaming tablet” (ASUS)<\/p>\n

ASUS hasn’t yet revealed pricing or availability for the ROG Flow Z13-KJP.
