Microsoft and Marvel have teamed up to create a new X-Men-themed Xbox console that looks awesome and comes with a Wolverine-inspired controller, too. Sadly, this new console isn’t for sale and can only be won via a limited-time sweepstakes.
Revealed on April 23, the new Xbox is wrapped in comic book art based on the new Disney+ streaming show, X-Men ‘97, which is a continuation of the original animated X-Men series that aired on Fox back in the 1990s. The show has received rave reviews from critics and fans for staying true to the original source material while expanding upon it with new characters and storylines ripped right out of the comics. And now you have the chance to win an Xbox covered in artwork inspired by the show and the X-Men comics.
As with most of these sweepstakes, you can enter by simply retweeting a promotional tweet shared by the company. In this case, it’s an official Xbox account tweet showing off the cool-looking Xbox, which is one part of the grand prize.
If Xbox randomly picks your retweet, you’ll win the custom Xbox Series X console covered in Marvel artwork, a non-custom controller that is included with the Xbox, and a second custom controller inspired by Wolverine as seen in the X-Men ‘97 series.
According to the rules of the contest, you need to make sure your account isn’t protected or private to win. And don’t retweet the official post with anything offensive or shitty, as that can void your entry.
Also, an X-Men-themed Xbox might be very ironic in a few years, based on reported Sony and Insomniac leaks that suggest the superhero team will be a PlayStation-exclusive franchise in the future.
