At Computex 2026, Asus is marking the 20th anniversary of its Republic of Gamers (ROG) brand with a limited-edition collection of gaming peripherals featuring 24-karat gold-plated accents. The anniversary lineup includes the ROG Azoth Extreme Edition 20 wireless gaming keyboard, the ROG Harpe II Extreme Edition 20 wireless gaming mouse, and the ROG Keycap Mystery Box Edition 20, a collectible artisan keycap set.
Celebrate Asus ROG's 20th Anniversary in Style
The Asus ROG Azoth Extreme was released in 2024 and costs an eye-watering $500. The anniversary edition is just as incredible, but it's even more expensive, at $599.99, and it’s adorned with some even more luxurious features. They include translucent keycaps, a black-and-gold finish, and a removable commemorative 24-karat gold nameplate.
The keyboard features an adjustable gasket mount, a carbon-fiber positioning plate, a three-layer dampening system, and hot-swappable ROG NX switches. A full-color OLED touch screen and three-way control knob provide quick access to system information and keyboard settings, while ROG SpeedNova wireless technology and the ROG Polling Rate Booster deliver up to an 8,000Hz polling rate and up to 1,600 hours of battery life in 2.4GHz mode.

A semi-transparent shell houses a glowing 20th-anniversary logo and an internal metal frame plated in 24-karat gold. While it’s not as elaborate as Razer’s recent $1,337 re-release of the 20-year-old Razer Boomslang, it also doesn’t carry the Boomslang’s jaw-dropping price, coming in at $259.99.
The mouse features the new ROG AimPoint Pro 65K optical sensor, delivering up to 65,000dpi, along with ROG Optical Micro switches rated for 100 million clicks. ROG SpeedNova 8K wireless technology enables up to an 8,000Hz polling rate without requiring a separate booster, while also providing up to 195 hours of battery life.

Created for collectors and keyboard enthusiasts, the $24.99 collection is a set of boxes that each contain a randomly selected artisan keycap. The collection features designs inspired by the ROG logo, ROG Claymore keyboard, ROG Gladius mouse, ROG Delta headset, ROG Raikiri Pro controller, and ROG Chariot gaming chair.
The detail of each hand-finished resin keycap is actually pretty impressive. Each has an obsidian-inspired base and intricate structural elements designed to highlight the product it represents.
