ASUS Republic of Gamers Announces Falchion Ace Keyboard
2022/10/21
Compact 65% esports gaming keyboard includes ROG NX mechanical switches and stabilizers to enhance typing experiences
TAIPEI, Taiwan, October 21, 2022 — ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced the Falchion Ace, an esports 65% gaming keyboard with a masterful design that packs arrow and navigational keys in an extremely compact 60% frame. The Falchion Ace features fast-actuating ROG NX mechanical switches and ROG-tuned force curves for consistent keystrokes with a great feel. Additionally, the special ROG switch stabilizer design ensures smoother, more stable keystrokes ― particularly for longer keys. Keyboard acoustics are also improved thanks to ROG PBT doubleshot keycaps and built-in sound dampening foam. An interactive touch panel along the left side of the keyboard enables easy volume adjustments and customized commands, while two USB-C® ports allow for a neater gaming setup and lets gamers quick-toggle between two PCs. Plus, the Falchion Ace has three tilt angles that can be adjusted to suit the user’s preference and includes an innovative protective cover case. The Falchion Ace is available in Black and Moonlight White.
Aim for victory with ROG Ace
For more than a decade, ROG has channeled its passion for gaming into building out-of-this-world experiences for everyday players, streamers, and pro gamers. The ROG Ace series is designed and engineered for the very best in the game, providing gamers with an entire arsenal of peripherals to win like a pro.
65% keyboard in an ultracompact form factor
With the ROG Falchion Ace, the ROG design team sought to develop a 65% keyboard without compromise, masterfully incorporating arrow and navigation keys in a much smaller package to give users all the functions of a normal keyboard without taking up much desktop space. At just 306 mm in length, the Falchion Ace is almost the same size as a 60% form factor keyboard.
Great keystroke feel
The ROG NX mechanical switches used in the ROG Falchion Ace feature lubricated stems and base housings to deliver a smooth click feel and eliminate bouncing noises. ROG-tuned force curves and fast-actuation design ensure consistent and tactile keystrokes. The durable ROG PBT doubleshot keycaps give the Falchion Ace a sturdy, premium feel, and the mid-height keycap and shorter stem design reduce key wobble for more comfortable typing.
The lubricated ROG switch stabilizer has been specially tuned with gamers in mind, producing less friction so longer keys like Spacebar, Shift, and Enter stay true to the original switch feel. Lastly, built-in sound dampening foam absorbs pinging noises and echoes for improved keyboard acoustics.
Convenient features
An innovative touch panel on the left side of the Falchion Ace can be used to adjust volume or as shortcuts for switching apps, copying, or pasting. It can also be programmed as a macro key for complex in-game commands. Two USB-C ports on either side of the rear edge of the keyboard allow for a much neater setup, and allows gamers to simultaneously connect and quick-toggle switch between two PCs. The Falchion Ace includes two pairs of keyboard feet of different heights, giving users three tilt angle options to suit their preference.
When not in use, a transparent polycarbonate keyboard cover protects the Falchion Ace during storage or transport. The cover can be placed under the keyboard during gameplay, giving the underside RGB lighting a diffused look.
