Ratingen, Germany, February 12, 2026 — ASUS Republic of Gamers today announced the ROG Raikiri II Xbox Wireless controller.

It offers up to 50 hours of battery life in wireless 2.4GHz mode, and includes four programmable ergonomic rear buttons, enhanced grips with a skin-friendly, anti-grip surface, plus a cross-concave D-pad and longer, more-rounded bumpers. For customization, gamers can use the web-based Gear Link to tailor profiles, remap buttons, or to adjust controller vibration and lighting.

Responsive and precise control
The Raikiri II Xbox Wireless features up to a 1000Hz polling rate in wired or 2.4GHz RF mode during PC gaming, with the latter enhanced by ROG SpeedNova Wireless technology. It also delivers low-latency performance that matches or surpasses most of the high-end Xbox controllers currently available.
Compared to Hall effect joysticks, the TMR joysticks of Raikiri II Xbox Wireless offer superior precision control and accuracy, incredible energy efficiency, and exceptional anti-drift performance. In addition, dual-mode triggers enable players to seamlessly shift between short-travel micro-switch triggers and TMR sensor triggers for a full range of travel, ensuring optimal control for different types of games. The Raikiri II Xbox Wireless is one of the few controllers to feature TMR sensor triggers, offering the same precision as Hall effect triggers, with greater efficiency. The D-pad, ABXY buttons, rear buttons, and bumpers feature micro switches for instant actuation and tactile feedback. The Raikiri II Xbox Wireless offers up to 50 hours[1] of wireless gameplay on a single charge, outlasting most premium controllers that only offer 20–30 hours of play.
Versatile gaming
The Raikiri II Xbox Wireless features tri-mode 2.4GHz RF, Bluetooth®, and wired USB-C® connectivity for compatibility with PCs and ROG Xbox Ally handheld. It’s also certified for Xbox via USB-C and 2.4GHz RF. The controller features dedicated Library and Command Center shortcut buttons specifically designed for seamless integration with Xbox Ally, enhancing gameplay customization and convenience.
Ergonomic design
The Raikiri II Xbox Wireless has an ergonomic design with four programmable rear buttons that are thoughtfully positioned to be within easy reach. The grips are enhanced with a skin-friendly, anti-slip coating for comfort and stability while gaming. Other design refinements include a cross-concave D-pad and longer, more-rounded bumpers.
Gear Link and premium accessories
ASUS Gear Link is a web-based application that lets gamers tailor profiles, remap buttons, and adjust controller vibration and lighting settings.
The Raikiri II Xbox Wireless includes a portable protective case that charges the controller when not in use. It also includes a charging stand with feet, and two detachable joystick caps.
