Acer Nitro Blaze Link Streams PC Games Straight to a Dedicated Handheld

Acer has introduced the Nitro Blaze Link, a handheld gaming device designed to stream games from a nearby computer. It features ergonomic grips, standard controls, and a seven-inch touchscreen with a resolution of 1920 by 1200 pixels. The device weighs 464 grams, measures approximately 287 millimeters in width, and has a maximum thickness of 33.5 millimeters. It is powered by an 18-watt-hour battery and includes a USB-C port for charging (up to 15 watts) but does not support data transfer. The Nitro Blaze Link runs on Debian Linux, uses Moonlight for video streaming, and requires Sunshine installed on the host computer. It has 1GB of LPDDR4 RAM and 8GB of integrated flash storage, supports WiFi 6, and is designed to work with Acer's Predator Helios and Nitro laptops. The device cannot run games locally, has limited storage and RAM, and relies on a stable wireless connection for performance. It is expected to be available in the U.S. market in the fourth quarter of 2026, with no pricing information disclosed.
