Ever wanted a chocolate Xbox controller? Well you now have a chance to win an official one. Joining some early Black Friday offers on Series X with a FREE game or a $50 price drop and gift card offer, Microsoft is getting into the holiday spirit in a delicious way with the announcement of the “first ever official edible chocolate Xbox controller and Wonka-inspired console.” In partnership with the new Warner Bros. Pictures’ film “Wonka,” Xbox is looking to celebrate the return of the “world’s greatest confectioner” with a uniquely delectable gaming experience. Head below for a closer look.
Wonka-inspired console and chocolate Xbox controller
The “first ever official edible chocolate Xbox controller and Wonka-inspired console” is very much what it sounds like here. You’re looking at a special Wonka chocolate bar-inspired Xbox Series X bundled with what Microsoft is calling a unique console display “modeled after the magic of Willy Wonka’s iconic chocolate store.” The actual console portion of today’s announcement is not the edible part though:
While the console may look like one of Wonka’s famous chocolate bars, the Wonka-inspired Xbox Series X is not edible.
(X)box of Chocolates
However there is a sort of special edition, all-chocolate Xbox controller up for grabs as part of today’s Wonka crossover announcement. It contains the “first-ever official edible Xbox Controller made of 100% pure chocolate and wrapped in the signature gold wrapper.”
…a custom designed, burgundy-colored Xbox Wireless Controller inspired by Wonka’s coat from the film; and five additional chocolate truffles uniquely crafted to complement your Xbox gaming adventures including:
- Achievement Hunting: Delicious chocolate with a boost of energy ingredients, which helps with long-term gaming focus. Time to rack up that Gamerscore.
- Button Masher: Buzzing with bold espresso to keep your reactions crisp and your head in the game.
- Your Citrus Sidekick: Chocolate and orange team up for a sunny burst of flavor, in honor of the fruitful variety of games available on Xbox Game Pass.
- Xtra Kick: Balances out the sweet with just the right amount of heat. Just like any end boss, this gets you a little fired up but yields sweet rewards.
- Wonka for the Win: Sometimes the greatest joys in life are also the simplest. So, this treat focuses on the essence of what makes a great truffle: the chocolate. 100% pure, decadently delicious chocolate.
