It’s been several months since Acer unveiled its Predator Atlas 8 gaming handheld, but now we finally know that it’s coming to the US, and how much it’ll cost. The Intel Arc G3 Extreme variant — the more powerful of the two models announced in May — will be available exclusively at Best Buy on November 1st, priced at $1,299.99.
For that, the Atlas 8 provides Arc B390 graphics with 12 Xe3 GPU cores, paired with 24GB of LPDDR5x RAM. The 8-inch display runs at 120Hz, and the device comes equipped with dual-mode triggers, TMR joysticks, and the ability to be used for both handheld or docked setups. It runs Windows 11 and can be used with Xbox Game Pass, so there’s no shortage of supported games you can play.
