For its 75th anniversary, Porsche has teamed up with Xbox to create six limited-edition Series X consoles — with matching wireless controllers — based on the brand’s iconic motorsport liveries.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Are the limited-edition consoles for sale?

    The limited-edition consoles are not for sale, according to Porsche.
  • What are some of the cars that inspired the limited-edition Xbox Series X consoles created in partnership with Porsche?

    Some of the cars that inspired the liveries on the limited-edition Xbox Series X consoles include the the Porsche Hippie, the Porsche Pink Pig, and the Porsche Salzburg.
  • The aforementioned Xbox Series X consoles will wear skins inspired by the Porsche 911 GT1 (which won 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1998), the Porsche Hippie, the Porsche Pink Pig, the Porsche Salzburg (a car that gave Porsche its first win at Le Mans), the Porsche Racing Edition, and the Porsche 75th. 

    To note, Porsche’s collaboration with Xbox for the six aforementioned Series X models stems from a strong relationship as the two companies have worked closely to bring the automaker’s iconic cars to the Xbox exclusive franchise, Forza.

    “Many people who end up being our most dedicated fans had their first encounter with Porsche through gaming. That’s why it plays a key role for us to stay relevant not just among current fans but among new generations, showcasing in the most awesome and engaging way what our brand has to offer,” stated Porsche Global Marketing Vice President Robert Ader. 

    Similarly, Xbox Global Partnerships Director Marcos Waltenberg highlighted the bridge that video games create between players and car companies like Porsche: “Xbox and its fan base are no stranger to Porsche and the incredible capabilities of its high-performance vehicles in our beloved racing and driving games like Forza Horizon 5. That’s why we’re excited to team up with the renowned sports car brand to create special edition Xbox hardware that celebrates their milestone anniversary given our shared vision and goal of reaching global audiences who love cars, gaming and self-expression.”

    Xbox will not be offering the limited-edition consoles for sale. Nevertheless, the Microsoft-owned video game company revealed that those looking to add the limited-edition consoles to their game rooms can enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win a console and controller from Porsche’s collaboration with Xbox, which will happen from June 8-October 1.
