With Microsoft’s promotion of Forza Horizon 3 has come a partnership with Audi, which led to the creation of the uniquely-styled Audi R8 console, which looks like the hood of a car– replete with headlights, grille, license plate, and Audi logo. The controller also has leather inserts to emulate the feel of a steering wheel, and the Xbox home button is a car’s ignition button.
The console’s promotion is part of a contest, so only 3 of these special-edition consoles exist as of yet, and they’re all only available as prizes.
The internet has been having a …mixed reaction to the Xbox One S Audi R8’s aesthetics, but it can’t be denied that a lot of consideration went into the console’s design, and it is a sleek design indeed, especially considering it’s supposed to be a representation of just the front of another thing. (Full disclosure: The author actually rather likes the design.)
Either way, as only 3 exist, it’s unlikely you’ll ever see one for yourself. If you’d like to: Good luck with the promotion. Forza Horizon 3 is available on Xbox One and PC now.
