With the Xbox Series X seemingly just around the corner, it's no wonder that fans are getting more and more excited each day. It seems that a variety of artists and designers are also taking joy in creating fan made limited edition console designs based on various games, and now an Assassin's Creed: Origins Xbox Series X fan design has been made.
Assassin's Creed Origins was a fan favorite because of some of the changes it made to the previous games' formula, but that also earned it a lot of ire from those that preferred the original style. Nonetheless, its legacy persists, and many assume that Assassin's Creed Valhalla will continue down the path Origins began.
Django_dinkar's custom Xbox Series X design looks absolutely stunning, and commenters seem to almost unanimously agree that they would buy it in a heartbeat if it were real, a testament to the artist's skill.
The design features the striking brown and gold color scheme and is laden with Egyptian hieroglyphics seen commonly in the game, especially in Assassin's Creed Origins' secret areas. Perhaps most notable is the matching controller, which proudly displays the Assassin's mark directly on the center, and utilizes the gold accent colors to emphasize buttons, the analog sticks, and the directional pad. The Xbox Series X's rectangular shape allows the design to fit on it naturally, and it almost looks as though it could be real. It's only real flaw is the way the white Xbox logo sticks out from the rest of the rich and dark design aspects, but this is a minor flaw when considered as a whole.
Of course, something like this is practically guaranteed to never exist. Assassin's Creed Origins released in 2017, and by the time the Xbox Series X releases, fans will likely be playing Assassin's Creed Valhalla. If there was to be an Assassin's Creed limited edition Xbox Series X, it would almost certainly be for Valhalla or a remake of the original game, though this is much less likely. Nonetheless, the design is certainly fun to look at, and since anything's technically possible, fans can dream.
So far there hasn't been any official word on limited edition Xbox Series X designs, but it will be exciting to see what sorts of games inspire the inevitable limited edition versions. Assassin's Creed does seem like a very likely option, as Valhalla is aiming to be the generation defining game for next gen consoles.
Assassin's Creed Origins is available for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
