With the launch of the ROG Harpe II Ace, ASUS introduces a no-compromise gaming mouse designed specifically for professional eSports. Developed in close collaboration with VALORANT pro Demon1 and other top players, the Harpe II Ace is all about precision, speed and ergonomics. Ambitious gamers and tournament players in particular will be delighted with the consistently performance-oriented features – including 8000 Hz wireless technology and a new material mix that significantly reduces the weight.

  • Extremely light housing (only 48g) made from bio-based nylon
  • ROG SpeedNova Wireless with 8000 Hz sampling rate
  • ROG AimPoint Pro sensor with 42,000 dpi and track-on-glass technology
  • Designed with VALORANT-Star Demon1 for maximum eSports performance

Tailor-made for eSports – by professionals, for professionals

The ROG Harpe II Ace was not developed in a laboratory, but in direct consultation with the eSports community. VALORANT pro Demon1 in particular played a key role in shaping the design. His input was incorporated into almost all aspects: Shaping, button resistance, click feel and weight. The result is a mouse that really comes into its own with fast flickshots, precise swipes and enduring matches. The further development of the original ROG Harpe Ace Aim Lab Edition is particularly evident in the ergonomic fine-tuning: slightly inward sloping side panels ensure easy lifting, while an optimized button hump geometry improves the balance of claw and fingertip grips.

Additional grip is provided by the newly developed surface finish, which reliably wicks away sweat and grease. This means that the mouse remains controllable even in intensive gaming situations. The side buttons are specifically angled and clearly separated from each other to prevent operating errors – a detail that can be decisive in the hectic pace of a tournament.

Innovation down to the smallest detail

At just 48 grams, the Harpe II Ace is one of the lightest mice in its class – without compromising on stability. This is made possible by a new bio-based nylon material made from castor oil, which not only reduces weight but also cuts the carbon footprint by 70% compared to conventional plastic. The internal structure has been reinforced to ensure stability and durability – a clear advantage for intensive use.

Inside, the ROG AimPoint Pro sensor works with up to 42,000 dpi, a deviation of less than 1% and track-on-glass functionality. This is supported by ROG’s exclusive optical microswitches, which are designed for a lifespan of 100 million clicks. Tracking is powered by the new ROG SpeedNova 8K wireless technology – currently one of the fastest wireless connections on the market. Thanks to the next-generation MCU, the mouse achieves an actual wireless sampling rate of 8000 Hz in real time.

In addition, the “Zone Mode” provides an immediate performance boost: RGB lighting is deactivated, data processing is optimized and the mouse is set to a permanently active state – perfect for tournaments and competitive gaming. Configuration is conveniently carried out via ROG Gear Link directly in the web browser, without any software installation – ideal for gamers who frequently change devices or are on the move.

Addition with added value: ROG Sheath II mouse pad

ASUS offers the ROG Sheath II XXL mouse pad to match the Harpe II Ace. At 900 x 400 mm, it offers generous space for keyboard and mouse, while the surface made of special cooling fabric reduces heat and increases comfort. Flat-stitched edges and a non-slip rubber base round off the setup for enduring sessions.

Conclusion

With the ROG Harpe II Ace, ASUS delivers a mouse that makes no compromises: ultra-light, lightning-fast, precise – and sustainably manufactured at the same time. Anyone who wants to be at the forefront of eSports or simply raise their personal performance level will find the right tool here. The mouse is now available in black and white at a price of 179.90 euros – from specialist retailers and in the ASUS webshop.
