The Lenovo Legion Go has seemingly disappeared from several of Lenovo's online stores. This may be an indication of an imminent launch of a long-rumoured update to the Windows gaming handheld. An updated Legion Go with a bigger screen and more ports was recently mentioned on a Lenovo FAQ page before being taken down.

The Lenovo Legion Go has proven itself to be one of the most well-liked among the recent spate of Windows handhelds, and a successor to the Legion Go has long been rumoured to be in development. Now, it looks like changes may be afoot with regard to the Legion Go line-up, since Lenovo has reportedly removed the Legion Go from several of its European sites with no real explanation. 

Visitors of several Lenovo sites in Europe will notice that the Legion Go is suspiciously absent, potentially indicating that there may be updates to the Legion Go line-up coming from Lenovo at IFA. There have been a number of leaks and rumours about a Lenovo Legion Go Lite or Legion Go 2, some of which even originated from Lenovo itself. 

According to a Forbes report, the Legion Go is absent from Lenovo's site in at least Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK, although the gaming handheld is still available for $599.99 on the Lenovo US store. Lenovo has not yet commented on the removal of the Legion Go from its European store fronts, but the move had prompted discussion about the potential for an update to the Legion Go coming out of IFA Berlin. 

The majority of the rumours surrounding a mid-cycle refresh for the Legion Go hinted at the existence of a Legion Go Lite, which would theoretically feature a smaller 7-inch display. However, the recent Lenovo FAQ leak pointed to a Legion Go model with a dedicated HDMI port and a dual-fan cooling system. 

The Asus ROG Ally recently received a much-needed update with the launch of the Asus ROG Ally X, which has a bigger battery and more, faster RAM than the original Ally. Even if the Legion Go doesn't get a complete overhaul, a slight spec bump similar to the ROG Ally X would surely be welcomed by fans.
