With its simple design, the Xbox Series X is well suited for visual changes, such as foiling. Microsoft also knows this, and so there have been limited special editions of the console in recent years. The latest variant takes advantage of the cuboid shape: Microsoft transforms the Xbox Series X into Spongebob Squarepants. There is also a matching controller depicting the series heroes Spongebob, Squidward, Mr. Krabs, Patrick and Gary.
Spongebob and Fallout
In order to buy the Spongebob Xbox, however, you have to dig deep into your pockets: The special edition will cost $699 and is therefore significantly more expensive than the basic model ($499). In addition, you get the beat 'em up Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2, in which various Nickelodeon heroes compete against each other, but the console isn't a bargain either – a significant surcharge is required for the special look.

For customers in Europe, this is probably of secondary importance anyway, because the specially designed Xbox Series X will only be available to buy from the US retailer Best Buy. In this country, the only option is to import the console or, of course, design it yourself. If the former is being considered, you should probably take action quickly. Microsoft hasn't mentioned a number of units, but once the console is sold out, it will no longer be produced.

Things are obviously different with the second, special design: Microsoft is bringing the Xbox controller in the Fallout design onto the market via the Xbox Design Lab. The plastic housing is equipped with different versions of the Vault Boy. In addition, as usual, further modifications such as differently colored controls are possible. The Fallout controller is apparently offered unlimited and worldwide. In Germany, the model costs at least 85 euros, depending on the specific version.
