Microsoft Giving Away Full-sized Xbox Series X Fridge

Microsoft employees spend their time on the same internet as we do, and they know its memes. They’ve seen all our jokes about the Xbox Series X looking like a fridge, and they’ve acknowledged them before . But now they’re upping the meme game themselves by fully leaning into their console’s reputation and making an actual, functioning, full-sized refrigerator that looks like an Xbox Series X. And if you’re lucky enough, you can take it home.

The one.The only.Xbox Series X Fridge giveaway. Follow and retweet with #XSXFridgeSweeps for a chance to win the Xbox Series X Fridge.Ends 11/04/20. Rules: https://t.co/4P5hCSBPcy pic.twitter.com/MAt7xcTTQ4 October 28, 2020

The Xbox Series X fridge is a functioning, full-size refrigerator that I really wish Microsoft would start selling as a regular product. From the outside, it looks almost exactly like a real Xbox Series X, just much larger. And that includes a light-up Xbox logo on the front and plenty of (cosmetic only) giant I/O in the back. The catch is that there's just one winner, though some influencers and Snoop Dogg also got their hands on them.

To enter the contest , simply follow the official Xbox Twitter account and retweet the contest’s announcement tweet (embedded above) with the hashtag #XSXFridgeSweeps. If you win, Microsoft will send you the fridge, which is estimated at a $499 value.

Note that there’s no freezer included on this machine, which we think means that there’s plenty of room for Sony to sweep in with a contest of its own.

Who knows? Maybe in the future, Microsoft and Sony will be fully invested in kitchen gadgets while KFC handles our gaming consoles .
