Hideo Kojima brings sci-fi design to real world with this limited edition ASUS ROG touchscreen 2-in-1 gaming laptop

ASUS’ ROG announced its partnership with KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS to create a limited-edition lineup earlier this year, and we’ll soon have the centrepiece of that collab up for grabs. You’re looking at the ROG Flow Z13-KJP gaming laptop, which is a touchscreen 2-in-1 with a 13.4-inch 2.5K 180Hz panel. This particular machine comes packed with some serious hardware wrapped inside a really cool chassis, and it comes bundled with a custom carrying case that looks like it came straight out of KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS’ Death Stranding. Best Buy currently has a listing for this machine ready to go for $3,699.99 shipped, and you might want to be ready for this one as it’s expected to go quickly. Head below for a closer look and more details to see what you get for the money.

ASUS ROG Flow Z13-KJP 2-in-1 gaming laptop

The ROG Flow Z13-KJP 2-in-1, as you can tell, has a very unique design, complete with Death Stranding stylings designed in collaboration with legendary artist Yoji Shinkawa. This machine is styled in a black-and-gold colorway, and the CNC-milled aluminum frame has angular cutouts for ports, speaker grills, and more. The detachable keyboard you get to pair with this 2-in-1 has also received the custom treatment with unique colors, a bolder typeface than what you see on the standard variants, and angled edges that make it stand out. It’s really the carrying case that seals the deal for me, though, as it looks like those containers from Death Stranding.

As far as the specifications are concerned, you get a notebook powered by AMD’s Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 CPU, which is paired with 128GB RAM and 1TB SSD. It sports a 13.4-inch IPS touchscreen panel with support for up to 180Hz refresh rate for gaming. The integrated Radeon 8060S GPU inside this machine can use shared system memory on the SoC itself, meaning it can borrow some system memory to be used as VRAM. It’s also capable of delivering up to 50 TOPS of performance for Copilot and other AI workloads.

Best Buy, as previously mentioned, currently has a listing for this machine with a $3,699.99 price tag. It’s said to go live soon, so be sure to keep an eye on this space and snag it before it sells out.
