Cool. Now we just need another marvel game besides Guardians of the Galaxy on Xbox.
And before someone says "avengers" how about we aim for one where we didn't have to pay the same price for less game than playstation.

How does the Mjolnir-themed console look?
The main body of the console is covered in a wrap that has the same appearance as Thor’s hammerhead. However, the preview of the unique console looked like the broken Mjolnir that Natalie Portman’s character Jane Foster was wielding in the Thor Love and Thunder trailer.

The Mjolnir-themed Xbox Series X also has a braided handle like the mythical hammer from the movie. However, whether fans would be able to raise this hammer like the one from the movie is questionable. Maybe the fan who wins the console might be able to answer this.
