Microsoft teaming up with Taco Bell to give away Xbox One X consoles

As seen on the Xbox Wire blog this morning, Microsoft and Taco Bell are joining forces to give some lucky fans a chance to get their hands on the rather spicy new Xbox One X console for free.

How does a Taco Bell customer enter this Xbox One X promotion? Well, all they have to do is pick up the $5 Steak Quesarito box which includes a code that needs to be redeemed via text. They will be giving away an Xbox One X, a copy of Forza Motorsport 7 and a three-month Xbox Game Pass subscription to potential winners at a rate of around 1 per 10 minutes, from August 31st through October 4th.

See the official details below and at the Xbox Wire.

Mark your calendars for August 31, when Xbox and Taco Bell will give fans nationwide the first chance to win the newest member of the Xbox One family, the Xbox One X, when they pick up the new Steak Quesarito $5 box.

Beginning August 31, each Taco Bell $5 Box will include a unique code for consumers to text in for a chance to win the new Xbox One X. Boxes will be available during the promotion from August 31 to October 4 at participating Taco Bell locations while supplies last. Throughout the duration of the promotion, a potential winner will be notified on an average of every 10 minutes. Winners will be the first to get their hands on the Xbox One X, as well as win Forza Motorsport 7 and a three-month Xbox Game Pass subscription with their console.

Taco Bell and Xbox first partnered to launch the original Xbox in 2001, and are returning to their roots with this promotion to launch the Xbox One X.

?When it launches starting November 7, Xbox One X will bring gamers an amazing new level of console power and immersion,? said Mike Nichols, Corporate Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Xbox. ?We have a long history of partnerships with Taco Bell, dating back to the first Xbox, and are excited to once again work together to reward gamers with the opportunity to win Xbox One X.?

Whether you?re a gaming fan, a Taco Bell fan, or just hoping to get lucky, start counting down the days until August 31, when two brands gamers love join forces to bring Xbox One X to their biggest fans.

?It?s only fitting that the two brands that do ?boxes? best and have some of the greatest fans in the world have joined forces to box up the ultimate food and gaming offer for them,? said Marisa Thalberg, Chief Marketing Officer, Taco Bell Corp. ?We see this partnership with Xbox as yet another way Taco Bell is tapping what is current in culture and providing our fans access to unique experiences they cannot get anywhere else.?
