Microsoft has announced a new way to customize the Xbox Series X console with official console wraps. These wraps are not stickers, but solid core panels that are layered with high-tech fabric finishes and secured with a hook and loop enclosure. The wraps are designed to fit the console precisely and preserve its performance, while giving it a fresh and unique look.
Starfield-inspired console wrap
One of the first console wraps to launch is the Starfield-inspired one, which will be available on October 18th for $49.99 USD. This wrap is designed to complement the recently released Starfield controller and headset, which are based on the upcoming sci-fi RPG from Bethesda. The wrap features a white and grey color scheme, with game-inspired graphics and technical callouts that highlight the console’s functionality. The wrap also has a bronze metallic Constellation insignia on the closure, which is the name of the faction that players will join in Starfield.
The Starfield console wrap is a great way to show your excitement for the game, which is set to release on November 11th, 2023 exclusively for Xbox Series X|S and PC. Starfield is Bethesda’s first new IP in 25 years, and promises to deliver an epic adventure in a vast and dynamic universe.
Camo console wraps
If you prefer a more stealthy look for your console, you can also choose from two camo patterns that will launch on November 10th for $44.99 USD each. There is an Arctic Camo option, which has a grey and white color palette, and a Mineral Camo option, which has a blue and purple color palette. Both options match the existing Arctic and Mineral Camo controllers, which are part of the Xbox Design Lab program that lets you create your own custom controller.
The camo console wraps have a soft microfiber outside fabric, with a silicone camo pattern print on the inside for cling and stability. The wraps are easy to apply and remove, so you can change the look of your console whenever you want.
More affordable and sustainable option
Microsoft says that the console wraps are a more affordable and sustainable option than purchasing a special edition or limited edition console. With the wraps, you can customize the console you already have, without spending too much money or generating more electronic waste. The wraps are also made with recycled materials and come in eco-friendly packaging.
The console wraps are part of Microsoft’s efforts to offer more choices and personalization for Xbox fans. The company has also launched custom covers for the Xbox Series S console, which are removable plates that snap onto the sides of the device. Additionally, Microsoft has released several limited edition consoles and controllers for games like Halo Infinite, Forza Horizon 5, Psychonauts 2, and Sea of Thieves.
The Xbox Series X console wraps will be available in the US, Canada, and Europe through the Microsoft Store. You can pre-order yours starting today.
