Celebrate 25 Years of Xbox with the New Translucent Green Anniversary Console

Microsoft has unveiled a special edition Xbox Series X to mark the 25th anniversary of the console. This commemorative version draws inspiration from the original Xbox, featuring a striking translucent green design on both the console and the controller.

“For the first time, we’re bringing a translucent design to Xbox Series X, drawing inspiration from the original Xbox and OG Green so many players remember,” said Jason Ronald, VP of next generation. “The Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition respects our history, with the power and performance of the Xbox Series X, including 1 TB of storage, and a design that reflects where we’ve been and the community that’s been with us along the way.”

The console’s front features a green-lit X when powered on, along with a 25th anniversary logo. Microsoft has hinted at “a few hidden surprises throughout, as a thank you to the community.”

The controller showcases the classic ABXY colors and includes bumpers that pay homage to the original black and white buttons from the Duke controller. “The back case and battery door are fully transparent, revealing the classic XBOX logo,” Ronald added.

Both the console and controller are set to launch in November, although Microsoft has yet to reveal the exact release date or pricing details.
