Project DualPlay: Everything we know about it

The operative word here is "concept." This gaming laptop that Acer has envisioned here is nowhere near the ready-for-market stage.

In fact, it may never come to market at all, but it's certainly a bold idea.

Users can detach the controller from its electromagnetic lock by placing two fingers on the release button, which is located on the keyboard deck.

If that's not enough, Acer said the controller on this concept laptop will be able to separate into two joysticks. What's one of the use cases for this? "Head-to-head combat on the next evolution of the Street Fighter series," Acer said.

Releasing the controller also prompts two speakers to pop out from the sides of the laptop; this audio system offers "high fidelity," five-watt speakers.

If you're a fan of the flashy gamer aesthetic, you'll love that Project DualPlay is wrapped in customizable, 360-degree RGB lighting on the display bezels, keyboard, and trackpad area.

It's a bit wacky, yes, but it gives us some insight into how gaming laptops may look like in the future.

Alongside Project DualPlay, Acer announced a slew of other laptops that are actually real, including the Swift 14 AI and Swift 16 AI laptops, as well as some gaming laptops like the Nitro V 14 and the Nitro V 16.

Finally, Acer also unveiled a new Steam Deck rival called the Nitro Blaze 7.
