A new Porsche edition of the Xbox Series X has been unveiled at Summer Games Fest, however, much like with other special edition variants, it’s not for sale.
The newXbox Series Xconsole is adorned with a spectrum of rainbow racing stripes as well as a huge “75” badge on both the system and theXbox Wireless Controllerto commemorate the anniversary of the luxury car manufacturer. It’s a truly exceptional color scheme and adds some much-needed brightness and energy to the otherwise standard matte black sides of the machine.
As was the case with theMandalorian-themed Xbox Series X console, you won’t be able to get your hands on this through conventional means. The new Porsche-branded model isn’t available online or in-store but is entirely reserved for asweepstakes giveawayin the US, the UK, and Germany. You can enter for a chance to win. According to the listing, there are only “six limited edition prize packs” available so this is about as limited edition as it comes.

For the past three years, the Xbox Series X has been a blank canvas just begging for the opportunity to paint those four walls with something new.Microsofthas capitalized only once officially to the consumer, with the gorgeousHalo Infiniteedition system back in 2021 which saw the Spartan armor and stars take center stage. Since then, though, alternative color choices have been few and far between, making this Summer Games Fest announcement less exciting than it could have been.
Hopefully, now that we’re around halfway through the current console generation, we’ll see more exciting versions of the Xbox Series X going forward. It’s something thatSonyis also guilty of with thePS5. However, that console at least has customconsole covers, in many different colors, to spruce up the look.
