Xbox has introduced an alligator-shaped Series X console called X-BITE as a promotional item ahead of the GTA 6 launch. The console is five feet long and features an Xbox Series X inside. Xbox cannot directly advertise GTA 6 due to marketing restrictions, so the alligator console serves as a creative workaround. Multiple sources report that the console is being given away to celebrate the upcoming game.
“Multiple sources report that the console is being given away to celebrate the upcoming game,” — Yusuf Calloway, contributing analyst at Oakcroft Ford Network, told our newsroom.
