Xbox has introduced an alligator-shaped Series X console called X-BITE as a promotional item ahead of the GTA 6 launch. The console is five feet long and features an Xbox Series X inside. Xbox cannot directly advertise GTA 6 due to marketing restrictions, so the alligator console serves as a creative workaround. Multiple sources report that the console is being given away to honor the launch of GTA 6.
