Microsoft has designed a custom set of Xbox Series X and S consoles, themed around The Mandalorian.

Baby Yoda/Grogu features on the dinkier Xbox Series S design, while the beefier Xbox Series X features Mando himself. (No, there's no option with Pedro Pascal's face instead.)

The bundle will be made available via sweepstake - so yes, you get both consoles - and also includes a Yoda-green controller and a replica of little Grogu's sweater. Entry is as simple as retweeting the official Xbox Twitter account from today until 11th May.

Xbox clearly has a marketing deal with The Mandalorian for its new third season, which begins airing today on Disney+ worldwide.

For those who live in the US, a further prize is available via Microsoft Rewards: a human-sized version of Grogu's hovering pram. This one does not hover, but it does include "massaging cushions, cupholders, LED lights, and holders for your controllers and headphones". It's just what George Lucas would have wanted.

There's no sign of the Pram XL yet - and in any case, you can't get it on these shores. Regardless, we'll update with a picture when we have one.

Back in the world of video games, Star Wars will return to your consoles with Jedi Fallen Order sequel Jedi Survivor, due on 28th April.

I'm not into the Mandalorian, but that's actually a cute combo. The controller robe is funny.

That's actually really cute. My daughter and I already have Series X's.....but we could use one for the living room. Hmmm.

Jk, if I buy another one you'll find me hanging from my entrails from the second floor. My wife is DONE with my video game purchases, and she's made it quite clear lol.

 

[ChiefDada]

MUCH better than that Black Panther abomination.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Pretty cool. Microsoft and Disney seem to have a good relationship lately. Great power duo.

 

[cireza]

That's pretty nice. But it would be cool to have a decent special edition Series X/S available for people to purchase some day.

 

[adamsapple]

Series X looks gorgeous.

Not liking the booger green Series S shade.

[DenchDeckard]

Like it! I lay my xbox down so I couldnt have the Mando but that series S is cute.

 

[Pelta88]

Hats off to the design team. Every Star Wars fanatics next must have.

Marketing 101.

 

[Gudji]

These xbox exclusives are getting out of hand.

 

[[Sigma]]

I like these.

 

[BeardGawd]

Xbox and Star Wars have a long history with pretty cool custom consoles. Also with games such as KOTR and that Kinect Star Wars game.

 

[Eddie-Griffin]

Seems Capcom let Microsoft put Vile on the Series X design, good get.

It's Sigma in the helmet.

 

[Fbh]

That Series X looks really nice.
One of the best "special edition" consoles I've seen in a while

 

[FalsettoVibe]

I like!

 

[Iced Arcade]

cool... how about a mando game

 

[mrmustard]

X is sexy, S not so much.

 

[Chronicle]

Never thought I'd say this:

Man, I like the S!

That looks great

[Elder Legend]

Looks cool, but I am not Star Wars fan. Would make more sense if there was like an exclusive Star Wars game that was only coming to Xbox/PC.

I know Jedi is on the horizon, but it's multiplatform.

 

[3liteDragon]

The Yoda Series S looks meh, but the X looks nice.

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

They really need to produce more models like this. Would sell like hotcakes.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

I miss the days when they would come out with plain old different colors. Rember the beautiful red 360?

I miss the days when they would come out with plain old different colors. Rember the beautiful red 360?

Or consoles of actual games instead of TV shows or athlete scribble art.

 

[Astray]

Not a star wars fan but this looks actually sick.

Xbox has been doing really good with the custom consoles lately.

 

[RAIDEN1]

They LucasArts as it were could quite easily make a Mandalorian game, inspired by the likes of Mass Effect, Guardians of the Galaxy, Deus Ex

 

[PontiusFeeb]

Cool, the Mandalorian. Does it let me censor Gina Carano like the real show?

 

[Eddie-Griffin]

Interesting.
