If you’ve fallen under the spell of the already unbelievable Deadpool controller and wondered “can’t I also get my hands on Wolverine’s iconic dump truck,” then your luck is about to change.
Xbox has recently demonstrated its affinity for unconventional controller giveaways, and last week, it unveiled what might be its most unusual one yet: a Deadpool-themed controller featuring the Merc with a Mouth’s iconic cheeky grin proudly displayed on the back of the device. You even have the possibility to win this controller, alongside a Deadpool & Wolverine-themed Xbox Collection X, however clearly there’s just one on this planet, so good luck to whoever is ready to plant their sweaty mitts on Deadpool’s rotund rear. Despite this, a significant drawback emerged: Deadpool’s newfound freedom left him vulnerable and exposed, without anyone to anchor him in reality. Just hours ago, Microsoft announced on the Xbox Wire blog that a Marvel’s Wolverine game is indeed in the works.
“Alright, got it! We listened” – Xbox Wire. “In anticipation of Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine coming to theaters on July 26 and following the discharge of the Deadpool-designed customized Xbox Wi-fi Controller, followers across the globe clamored for Logan’s very personal Adamantium-tough tush (on a controller, after all). As we couldn’t help but be drawn to the prospect of pleasant competition, our team dived headfirst into designing an Xbox Wireless Controller inspired by the iconic Wolverine.
In Alberta, Canada, a massive billboard advertises the controller, a testament to the phrase “nothing says ‘I’m proud of you’ better than renting out a prominent sign in the spot where you first cut your teeth.” A novel way to celebrate camaraderie is born, akin to a friendship bracelet but amplified for public consumption. It’s likely been in development for some time, as it would have taken more than a week to convince Xbox to make this happen. For now, Deadpool remains off the market – or does he? The catch: this unique prize will be awarded through a sweepstakes, so may the odds be ever in your favor.
The ultimate trailer for Deadpool & Wolverine went up final week, however you in all probability should not watch it, as a result of it is chock stuffed with spoilers.
