Xbox is making an edible controller based on upcoming Wonka movie Microsoft has announced the first-ever edible Xbox controller as a content prize, alongside a candy-themed Series X, to promote the upcoming Wonka movie. The latest Xbox controller isn\u2019t the first food-themed one, as there was a pizza-scented controller as part of a tie-in with TMNT: Mutant Mayhem, but that accessory wasn\u2019t edible, so players couldn\u2019t have a snack between game sessions. A decent video game controller is an expensive item, with luxury models costing nearly $200. This means people aren\u2019t interested in edible models, especially not after hands have been rubbed all over them after a long play session. Despite this, Microsoft has teamed up with Warner Bros. Pictures to release a Wonka-themed Xbox Series X. This will come with an edible controller alongside the real one, but don\u2019t expect to see these on store shelves, as they\u2019re being saved for a specific promotion. The Wonka Xbox Series X comes with an edible controller & chocolate-themed console A news post on the official Xbox website has announced the Wonka Xbox promotion. To take part, Twitter\/X users must follow and retweet the #XboxWonkaSweepstakes tag from November 13, with the contest ending on December 14. The system can be seen in a post on the official Xbox Twitter\/X page. The Xbox Series X console resembles a chocolate bar with the Wonka logo, a display case with candy jars, and a burgundy controller. There is also a life-sized chocolate Xbox Series X\/S controller wrapped in gold, which is completely edible. The system additionally comes with Xbox-themed chocolate truffles named after gaming terminology. These include the Button Master, Achievement Hunting, Your Citrus Sidekick, Xtra Kick, and Wonka for the Win. As a limited number of Wonka Xbox Series X systems exist, and their release is tied to a random prize draw, there\u2019s a chance the edible controllers will never be eaten. A limited-edition system like this has value to collectors, and its value will be tied to the complete package. There are many limited-edition Xbox controllers on the market, but the chocolate one will count among the rarest in existence. It\u2019s a shame that it won\u2019t be available to the wider fanbase, as they can finally fulfill any fantasies they have of devouring a controller while in a state of gamer rage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
