Asus is getting ready to open pre-orders for the ROG Flow Z13-KJP, a special edition version of its ROG Flow Z13 gaming tablet created in partnership with Hideo Kojima’s Kojima Productions. First revealed at CES 2026 as part of a small lineup of collaboration hardware, the Z13-KJP stands out with a custom look and exclusive extras aimed directly at gamers and fans of Kojima’s iconic style.
According to Asus, pre-orders for the ROG Flow Z13-KJP begin on February 24. Pricing and the exact release date haven’t been shared yet, and Asus notes that availability details will vary by country. Even without a confirmed price tag, the company is clearly positioning this edition as a premium collector-style package rather than just another gaming PC tablet.
One of the biggest incentives is the bonus game included with every purchase. Asus says buyers will receive a free copy of Death Stranding 2: On The Beach for PC. While the company doesn’t spell out the delivery method, it’s widely expected to be a redeemable game key.
Death Stranding 2: On The Beach originally launched on PlayStation 5 on June 26, 2025, and its PC release is set for March 19, 2026. PC players can already pre-order it, with the standard edition listed at $69.99 and a digital deluxe edition priced $10 higher. For anyone planning to buy the game on PC anyway, bundling it with the ROG Flow Z13-KJP adds real value to the overall package.
Beyond the collaboration branding, this is still a serious piece of gaming hardware. The ROG Flow Z13-KJP features a 13.4-inch display with a sharp 2.5K resolution, a fast 180Hz refresh rate, and 100% DCI-P3 color coverage for richer, more accurate color. Under the hood, it runs on AMD’s Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor paired with Radeon 8060S graphics, and it comes with a massive 128GB of unified RAM—specs that push it well past what most compact 2-in-1 gaming devices offer.
To keep performance stable under load, Asus includes high-end thermal solutions, including a vapor chamber and liquid metal cooling—important upgrades for a thin gaming tablet designed to handle demanding titles and creative workloads.
The design is also a major part of the appeal. The chassis is built from CNC-milled aluminum and carbon fiber, and the exterior features custom artwork inspired by Kojima Productions’ Ludens mascot. Asus is also adding an exclusive Armory Crate theme that continues the Ludens-inspired look in the software experience, giving the whole device a cohesive, limited-edition feel. A special carrying case is included as well, reinforcing that this is meant to be a complete premium bundle.
With pre-orders opening February 24 and the PC version of Death Stranding 2 arriving soon after, the ROG Flow Z13-KJP is shaping up to be one of the more attention-grabbing gaming tablet releases of 2026—especially for players who want powerful portable PC gaming hardware with a collector-grade Kojima Productions twist.
