In a few days, China and part of Asia will celebrate the transition to the new year according to the lunar calendar. And in 2022, it is the tiger who is in the spotlight, a sign synonymous with strength, power, bravery but also the exorcism of evils. It is with all this in mind that Microsoft has launched the production of 15 Xbox One S in animal colors for the Chinese New Year, a copy of which is up for grabs on Microsoft’s Twitter account. It is the artist Bu2ma (Bu-er-ma)who is the author, he who is a fan of plump and cute drawings. For the dress, a pretty flamboyant red was chosen (and symbol of the traditional lucky color in Chinese culture), while the ornaments refer to the animal king of all beasts in China . Whether on the hood of the Xbox Series X or on the controller, we find the tiger in Chinese calligraphy style. Small detail to highlight, but which is not seen in the visual provided by Microsoft, the sinogram (虎) written in Chinese (meaning “tiger”) is displayed on the back of the controller. On the other hand, on the facade, we can see the sinograms 虎年大吉 which wishes us the best for this year of the tiger.
In keeping with our new lucky Xbox Series S consoles, we wish everyone a Happy New Year of the Tiger filled with luck and fortune.春节快乐！虎年大吉！
