In an October preview titled “Power Your Dreams”, a giant CG avatar of Daniel Kaluuya, stars of the Get Out, launches an Xbox Series X and does a bunch of fantastic video games, including 80 times larger than a planet Master Chief pak. Before all that, he puts on some Xbox’s new wireless headphones, a giant smile growing across his face before being sent into space. Check out the trailer below.
Xbox social media manager Josh Stein confirmed the Easter egg on Tuesday, adding that he was not sure if there were other Easter eggs in the trailer.
The Xbox team loves to hide their latest hardware and other Easter eggs in videos. During the Game Lab 2020 Keynote Fireside talk, Xbox CEO Phil Spencer chatted with interviewers while the Xbox Series X sat on its shelf in the background the entire time.
The new wireless headphones may not carry you to different sizes, but at $ 99.99 it will work with the Series X, Series S and Xbox One and allow for spatial sound. The headset supports Xbox’s range of 3D audio systems: Windows Sonic, Dolby Atmos and DTS Headphones: X. If you’ve more of a PC player, it’s going to work there as well.
The headset is available from March 16, but you can now pre-order it from Amazon or the Microsoft Store.
