I saw this thing about Microsoft and their mystery handheld gaming gizmo. Yeah, they’re kind of putting their own Xbox handheld dreams on the shelf. Well, for now at least. Feels like they’re more into making Windows 11 super friendly for handhelds and getting all cozy with this Asus thing called ‘Kennan.’ Why? Who knows, maybe it’s all about riding the SteamOS wave on these Windows 11 gadgets. Makes sense, right? People seem to love how SteamOS plays on these devices, though it messes with Game Pass. I mean, who cares if it runs like a charm?
In case you missed it (I hadn’t heard until, like, yesterday), Microsoft was doing some secret squirrel stuff working on handhelds. They’ve got this project with Asus, “Project Kennan.” Will it launch this year? Maybe. Sounds like they’ve got the hardware ready to rumble.
And about that Xbox handheld thing — wouldn’t it be cool to play proper Xbox games on the go? Yep, that’s the one not seeing the light just yet. Too bad, right?
So, Windows 11 is the OS king for these handhelds, but SteamOS is shaking things up. I mean, it’s not just about that Legion Go S gadget; you could run both systems on it and names like the Asus ROG Ally. SteamOS shines in performance, but Windows 11? Well, it hooks you into the whole Windows life.
