HIGHLIGHTS

Alienware posted a very cryptic tweet on their official Twitter page

The marketing of this new product is quite unconventional.

The details will be unveiled soon

In a video shared by the Dell subsidiary Alienware, on their official Twitter account, it can be seen that the company is teasing the return of its iconic 18-inch gaming laptops. In the video, it can be seen that the new laptop is arriving in a very UFO-esque manner, adding to the mystery, and being very in line with how Alienware reveals its products. And to make things much more interesting, the video also showed the number ‘18’ stamped onto a field of grass, much like signs on a field after the arrival of aliens.

What is so special about 18 inches?

People who do not know about the old line-up of Alienware laptops, might not get this, but Alienware is essentially teasing the return of the Alienware 18, which was first revealed all the way back in 2013, and has not seen any new upgrades since 2015.

It had an 18-inch screen and weighed a whopping 12 pounds. But if people were willing to look past the massive weight, and carry it around, the laptop practically offered a high-level gameplay experience from virtually anywhere. The 2015 limited-edition version of the Alienware 18 boasted the most features and was an all-around beast of a gaming laptop. It had dual internal GPU support, liquid cooling, and a Graphics Amplifier support system.

But that was the last time Alienware released an 18-inch laptop, and ever since then went back to making smaller-screen laptops.

The Return of the 18-inch laptop

Alienware is keeping most of the details about its new release under wraps, for the time being, so we don’t really know what to expect from their tweet. There was no reveal date whatsoever, so we hope that we see something about this new product the next month during CES.
