Following the recently Gladius and soon-to-launch Sica, Asus is introducing its fans to the Spatha gaming mouse. Projected for release at earliest until post Q2, Asus previewed an engineering & development sample at CES. The key specs the company announced are the following:

• 12 programmable buttons: designed for MMOs
• Magnetic docking station for storage and charging
• Can be used in wired or wireless mode
• ROG exclusive swappable Omron switch sockets (like the Gladius)
• Ergonomic right-handed design for full grip (or larger hands)

Like the Gladius and Sica, the Spatha is a type of Roman sword. Specifically, a long sword up to 1 meter long and was a used as a standard heavy infantry weapon by the army and in gladiatorial combat.
