The Australian gaming landscape is vibrant and increasingly dominated by PC players, with over half (58%) of the nation’s 82% gaming population preferring the precision, power, and customisability of a desktop or laptop rig*. It’s for these discerning enthusiasts that ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) proudly announces an electrifying collaboration with the visionary world-renowned game studio KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS.

The partnership brings a fusion of high-performance PC gaming technology and unparalleled artistic storytelling, resonating deeply with the passionate Australian PC gaming community. This isn’t just new gear; it’s a one-of-a-kind, highly collectible moment for Australian gamers who demand the extraordinary.

Cutting-edge gaming hardware meets visionary storytelling

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 PC 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, including Australia’s passionate and growing PC gaming community, a community that constantly pushes boundaries on their chosen platform.

The limited-edition ROG Flow Z13-KJP is the result of a collaboration between two brands devoted to the pursuit of incredible experiences for gamers. KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS’ Ludens symbol is a standard bearer to represent “those who play”. Designed by the legendary artist Yoji Shinkawa, known for his unique art style, the Flow Z13-KJP was crafted to capture the spirit of this character, down to the angular cut-outs on the CNC-milled aluminium chassis, the usage of carbon fibre, and a bold typeface. “I wanted to create a gadget that belongs to Ludens, and I integrated that into this PC design,” said Yoji Shinkawa.

Play and create anywhere with an ultra-portable 2-in-1 PC powerhouse  

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 PC gaming and content creation. This formidable portable PC rig offers a unified memory architecture that allows dynamic allocation of a massive 128GB pool, optimising performance across gaming and creative tasks. With 50 TOPS of NPU power, it can run LLMs locally for enhanced productivity and security – a significant advantage for PC users balancing work and play.

The 13.4-inch 2.5K Nebula Display with a 180Hz refresh rate and 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 colour space, paired with a detachable keyboard, makes the Z13-KJP a versatile 2-in-1 device ideal for immersive PC gameplay, cinematic visuals, and creative work — whether gaming at home or creating on the go across diverse landscapes, perfectly suited for the Australian lifestyle.
