The Stranger Things Xbox console is made to look like a 1980s cassette player that was left in the Upside Down. For those who may not be familiar with the show, the Upside Down is an alternate dimension that’s home to all kinds of bizarre and dangerous creatures, including the franchise’s iconic Demogorgon. Fittingly, the Xbox Series S console looks like it’s been put through the ringer, and it even has tentacles enveloping it that are not unlike the tentacles used by Season 4 villain Vecna.

Another detail that Stranger Things fans may notice besides the Vecna tentacles that are on the Xbox Series S console and its controller is a Hellfire Club sticker on top of the console. For those who have yet to watch Stranger Things Season 4, the Hellfire Club is a Dungeons & Dragons club at the local Hawkins high school. The Hellfire Club plays a key role in the latest season of the show, so those who have yet to binge it should check it out to learn more.
As far as the console goes, it will be given away by Microsoft at some point, though the contest has not started at the time of this writing. The way Microsoft usually gives away custom Xbox consoles is through Twitter, where those who are following the official Xbox account and re-tweet the correct post get an entry into the sweepstakes. There has been at least one instance of someone winning a custom Xbox console and failing to claim their prize in time, so anyone that does throw their hat in the ring will want to keep an eye on their inbox in the weeks ahead.
This is far from the first time that Stranger Things has found itself tied to the video game industry. Netflix has released official Stranger Things video game adaptations, and the franchise has crossed over with existing video games, like Dead by Daylight and Far Cry 6. Considering the show’s popularity, it’s highly likely that even more Stranger Things video game content is on the way.
In fact, a leak suggests that Eleven from Stranger Things may be added to the roster of playable characters in the upcoming MultiVersus fighting game, though that remains to be seen. For now, Stranger Things fans can binge-watch Season 4 and keep an eye out for when the contest for this custom Xbox console goes live.
