To celebrate the next addition to the Gears of War franchise, Microsoft is accepting pre-orders for a limited-edition Gears 5-themed Xbox One X, and it includes plenty of accessories
Microsoft wants players who are looking forward to the new Gears 5 release to have something else to look forward, too, such as a new console. For a limited time, eager fans can get their hands on a limited-edition Xbox One X Gears 5 variation. While the box features numerous characters from the series, the console itself comes in a sickening, white and black color with the deadly Gears franchise cog in the middle.
The specialized Xbox One X console got designed by The Coalition, the Gears developer, and the Xbox Industrial Design Team. Together, they were able to create this chilling design, with the Gears cog caked under a thin layer of transparent ice. On the bottom, there’s a similar design of the golden Locast symbol, the evil invaders and consistent antagonist of the game series.
However, there’s plenty of accessories included with this limited-edition console purchase.
The purchase includes a Kait Diaz limited-edition Xbox wireless controller with a pro charging stand, a wireless keyboard, and mouse for the Xbox One X, a wireless headset, 2TB, and 5TB Seagate game drives, and a 1-month membership to the Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Live Gold. In addition to the accessories, the bundle includes the Gears 5 Ultimate edition, the Gears of War Ultimate Edition, Gears of War 2, Gears of 3, and Gears of War 4.
For anyone who does not already own any of the Gears games, this is a great way to grab them all up in one purchase.
All of the accessories come with an iconic Gears of War logo on it, or brand name, on the item. The most iconic of the items is the Kait Diaz-themed Xbox wireless controller. It features a clean white design of Diaz’s armor, along with her logo right in the middle. Underneath the sticks, there’s a small blue glow from the controller, giving it further personalization. There’s a customized charging station for the controller, with a skull-cog icon right in the middle, and the stand has a similar paint job.
Fans who want nothing more than to add this to the home entertainment system can pre-order it all now. It’s going to cost a total of $499.99, but it comes with a fair amount of accessories to celebrate the return of Gears 5, which releases on Sept. 10.
