Xbox Series X Mini Fridge, £89.99, GAME – pre-order here
While the Xbox Series X console itself is still in short supply across the world, this super-cool alternative can now be ordered ahead of its launch in December.
The Xbox Series X Mini Fridge started out of something of a joke: a frigi-dare, you might say.
After the Series X console was released in 2019, many commentators said how much this big, boxy piece of hardware looked like an actual fridge.
So Microsoft decided to take this comparison to its logical conclusion – and finally, their fridge has just landed on the market.
We have a feeling that plenty of gamers will appreciate this keeping their drinks and snacks chilled for those long hours of gameplay.
