When Microsoft dropped the Xbox Series X, it knew the design wasn’t going to appeal to all gamers and simply embraced the memes. It was so chill, it created a meme based on comparisons between the console and a refrigerator. So chill, it took the cold joke even further and built a full-fledged Series X Fridge.
The six-foot appliance is a scaled replica of the original, complete with an Xbox icon that lights up when it’s plugged in. It doesn’t just resemble the Xbox Series X in appearance and cooling technology, though. You’ll have to use its disc drive slot—some call it a door handle—to get to the fridge’s interior, where you’ll be greeted with the new soothing Xbox animation sounds and a green glow.
Other notable features comprise “True 4K Eating, Cold Delivery, and Luxury Quiet Design,” Xbox shares in a press release.
The fridge is also supposedly worth about US$500, which is how much the Series X is priced.
Rapper Snoop Dogg and YouTuber iJustine have both been given their own Series X Fridges, and there appears to only be one left to be given away at a sweepstake. Interested participants need only follow @xbox on Twitter, and retweet the post shared below with the hashtag “#XSXFridgeSweeps.”
You could say that for the team at Xbox, handling the memes has been a breeze.
The one.
