Alligator-Shaped Xbox Will Be Snapped Up by One Gamer

Microsoft is set to unveil a one-of-a-kind Xbox console for its grand giveaway, a life-sized animatronic alligator complete with a glowing green Xbox logo in its eyes. Officially known as the Xbox Series X-Bite, this exclusive console is a limited-run creation, with only a single one set to be distributed. The alligator is a fine piece of craftsmanship, designed by experts from John Nolan Studio, who have previously built creatures for popular shows like The Witcher, Jurassic World Dominion, and HBO's Harry Potter series.

Adorned with a custom Xbox Wireless Controller with bite marks, the alligator can be found in the jaws of the beast. Inside, an illuminated Xbox Series X powers the console, ready to be played. This unique Xbox comes with a nod to the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6, a game slated for release on November 19. Although Microsoft cannot explicitly mention GTA 6 in its advertising due to Sony's exclusive marketing deal with Rockstar Games, the Xbox promotions cleverly incorporate GTA 6-themed props like a baseball bat, duffel bag, playing cards, dominoes, and a shot glass with a distinctly red, lip-sticked rim.

To set the scene, an alarm clock in the formation of 3:05 and Florida's area code 305 add to the alligator's Florida-inspired ambiance.

To participate in the sweepstakes, participants must follow @Xbox on TikTok, Instagram or X, repost the Xbox sweepstakes post, and add the hashtag #XbiteSweepstakes to their repost. Only those who are 18 years or older, reside in the United States, and maintain an active, public social media account will be eligible. Once a winner is selected, they have 48 hours to claim their prize. The sweepstakes kicks off now and will run until 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on November 10.
