In anticipation of the upcoming release of Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, Xbox is offering a special edition Series X console inspired by the mech action game. After the success of FromSoftware's acclaimed Elden Ring in 2022, the studio is returning to their lesser-known mech franchise, Armored Core 6, after ten years of establishing themselves in the gaming industry with the renowned Souls series, including Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.

Since the launch of the Xbox Series X in 2020, there has only been one widely available special edition Series X console based on an Xbox first-party game. In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Halo franchise, Xbox released the Halo Series X alongside the launch of Halo Infinite in 2021. However, Xbox has frequently created themed Series X and S consoles for various games and movie franchises as part of exciting giveaway events. Earlier this year, a Redfall-themed Xbox Series X was the grand prize in a sweepstakes leading up to the release of Arkane's vampire first-person shooter. Previous collaborations have featured Xbox showcasing a Series X and S inspired by Star Wars' popular Mandalorian series, as well as a Barbie-themed Series S to coincide with the release of the highly successful Barbie movie last month.

Xbox has unveiled an incredible Armored Core-themed Xbox Series X and wireless controller through a Twitter giveaway event, just ahead of the highly anticipated launch of FromSoftware's Armored Core 6. The console and controller are enclosed in a sizable ammo case with a rustic appearance. The console itself boasts an elegant gray and black design, with weathered and scratched gray panels, reflecting the battle-worn aesthetic of the mechs in Armored Core's post-apocalyptic world. The controller features a matching design with sleek black buttons, and both showcase the distinctive Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon logo.

To stand a chance of winning this stunning Armored Core console, fans must follow both Xbox's and Armored Core's Twitter accounts. They then need to retweet Xbox's original tweet with the hashtag XboxArmoredCoreSweepstakes. The giveaway period runs until September 1, extending beyond the August 25 release of Armored Core 6. The winner will be chosen on September 5 and notified on September 6.

Armored Core 6, the highly anticipated game from FromSoftware, is set to receive a limited edition Xbox Series X giveaway. With Xbox still planning to release major titles this Fall, such as Lies of P, Alan Wake 2, Assassin's Creed Mirage, and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, among others, it's clear that this won't be the final special edition console giveaway from Xbox this year. Fans who are looking for more opportunities to win a themed special edition Xbox Series X or S should keep an eye out during the upcoming Autumn months, as more big games of 2023 make their debut. Mark your calendars, because Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon is arriving on August 25 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
