Xbox Unveils Limited Edition Xbox Series X-BITE Inside Five-Foot Alligator

A Working Xbox Console Inside an Alligator Replica

The custom console takes inspiration from Florida's wildlife. Measuring more than five feet from snout to tail, the alligator houses the operational Xbox hardware inside its body. An illuminated Xbox Nexus logo is built into its back, while its green eyes feature pupils shaped around the Xbox logo.

A specially designed wireless controller, complete with artificial bite marks and tooth impressions, sits between the creature's jaws.

John Nolan Studio Creates the Unusual Design

John Nolan Studio used 3D modelling, sculpting and fabrication techniques to create the detailed reptile. The studio has previously worked on productions including Jurassic World Dominion, The Witcher and HBO's upcoming Harry Potter series.

Although the hardware can run Xbox games, the company describes the creation primarily as a display piece. Xbox has also confirmed that no real alligators were used or harmed during production.
