Official Fallout-Themed Xbox Series X Comes With Its Own Vault

Microsoft has created another custom Xbox Series X, this time theming after Fallout in celebration of the upcoming Amazon show.


Revealed in a post on X/Twitter, below, the console will be given away to one lucky fan who follows Xbox and retweets the post. The prize includes more than just the custom Xbox Series X, however, as it also bundles in a controller (which can actually be bought) and a custom vault to keep the hardware in.

This is a seemingly working safe with various bits of Fallout branding on it. It's marked as Vault 33, which is the same bunker where the Fallout TV show's protagonist comes from. Interestingly, it also has "Fort Knox" written on it, which is only mentioned in Bethesda's game universe in Fallout 76.

Vault Boy would approve.

The entire first season of Fallout hits Amazon Prime Video on April 11, 2024 and is set to be a "non interactive version" of Fallout 5 according to showrunner Jonathan Nolan. That being said, the lead on the Fallout video game series, Todd Howard, said he told writers what elements they couldn't use because they actually will be in Fallout 5.

This isn't the first custom console or controller Xbox has created. Last week, Microsoft revealed a bizarre Final Fantasy 14 Xbox Series X that doesn't actually work. Earlier in February it revealed a Dune: Part 2 special edition with a floating gamepad. Other Xbox Series X and S generation highlights include red and blue fluffy Sonic the Hedgehog gamepads, one made out of actual Jade, and even an edible gamepad.

Its more regular line of controllers include the sexy Gold Shadow, cosmic Stellar Shift, dusty Stormcloud Vapor, and even an Earth Day one made partly from recycled CDs, water jugs, and other Xbox controller parts.
