Earlier last week, images of the Lenovo Legion Go leaked and the collective thought of it was clear: the alleged handheld gaming console looks like a cross between a Nintendo Switch and a Steam Deck. Now, more information about it is coming to light, chief among them being the chipset that it will be using.
According to Windows Reports, the Legion Go will supposedly be powered by AMD’s Ryzen Z1 SoC, although it is currently unclear whether it will the standard Z1 or the Z1 Extreme model. If true, it would be the second handheld console to be fitted with said processor, after the ASUS ROG Ally.
Other bits of information about the Legion Go include render images with markers that indicate the different I/Os on the console and detachable controllers. For starters, we now know that the top of the console plays house to the volume rocker, a single USB-C port for charging and desktop extension, a microSD card reader, its power button, a 3.5mm audio combo jack, and the exhaust vent.
The controllers of the Legion Go are also detailed, and already it feels like the most complicated set of joysticks, with Lenovo giving particularly heavier emphasis and attention to the right joystick. While both controllers get the standard shoulder buttons and two additional buttons at the rear, it’s the orientation of the rear buttons on the right controller that raises eyebrows.
Instead of the typical vertical layout, the back buttons of the right controller are horizontally aligned. As if that wasn’t confusing enough, the side of the same controller then sports another two mappable buttons. And just when you thought Lenovo could not load it up any further, the same controller hides an FPS Mode Switch and mouse sensor at the bottom.
At the time of writing, the exact launch date of the Lenovo Legion Go is still unknown, and the brand has yet to provide any official information about it.
