Now, Xbox is jumping in on the action. On Twitter, it revealed a new sweepstakes event featuring a Porsche andOverwatch 2-inspired Series X as the main prize. The console is primarily white and black, with a sleek red Porsche tail light running horizontally across the front. The top of the console is home toD.Va and her Tokki MEKA, both donning her in-game Porsche-inspired skin.

Xbox’s Overwatch 2 x Porsche Series X Console
To participate in the sweepstakes event and have a chance at winning theone of a kind Series X console and its controller, fans will have to be following Xbox’s Twitter account and RT the reveal tweet. Interested gamers will have plenty of time to do so, as the sweepstakes ends on June 10. Many fans under the tweet who like the design of theOverwatch 2x Porsche console expressed their frustration that Xbox doesn’t put these sweepstakes consoles up for proper sale. With Xbox having introduced official Series X console wraps last year, which allow owners to easily change the look of their consoles, they’d be a perfect avenue to get some of these sweepstakes designs into the hands of more Xbox gamers without having to manufacture whole consoles.
It’s unknown how long both Porsche skins will remain inOverwatch 2’s in-game shop, or whether other heroes, like Bastion or Echo, will receive similar Porsche skins at some point in the future. Nevertheless, fans should expect to be able to buy the D.Va and Pharah Porsche skins inOverwatch 2at least past the Xbox sweepstakes’ end date of June 10.
