Xbox has officially revealed the Series X-BITE, a unique five-foot alligator-shaped console that integrates operational Xbox Series X internals. Crafted in collaboration with John Nolan Studio, the console features realistic scales and a custom controller, making it a one-of-a-kind collector's item.12
The Series X-BITE is available through a social media sweepstakes running from November 3 to November 10, 2026, at 11:59 PM PT. One lucky winner will receive the console, which is designed to resemble a life-sized alligator, complete with a controller resting in its jaws, bearing tooth impressions.
While the console is fully functional, Xbox emphasizes that it is primarily an exhibition piece, confirming that no real animals were harmed in its creation. The sweepstakes is open to legal residents of the 50 U.S. states and D.C. who are 18 years or older.
In addition to the console reveal, GTA 6 preloads are set for November 9 and 10, ahead of the game's launch on November 19. Rockstar has advised players to ensure they have enough storage space for the game's substantial file size of 212 GB, urging them to preload as soon as possible.
The Series X-BITE not only serves as a promotional tool but also ties into the game's Florida setting, known for its wildlife, including alligators. Xbox's creative approach aims to engage fans and enhance the excitement surrounding the upcoming game launch.
“The sweepstakes is open only to U.S. residents aged 18 and older, with the winner required to claim the console within 48 hours or the gator will 'make a clean getaway.' Meanwhile, Rockstar has confirmed the game's 212 GB file size, urging players to preload promptly.”
