The "Game of Thrones" hype is definitely real, and Microsoft eagerly hops on the hype train with a limited edition Xbox One inspired by the insanely popular TV series.
The Xbox One "Game of Thrones" Edition commemorates the sixth season of the TV drama. The chance of getting your hands on one of these babies will be very slim, however.
True to its "limited edition" tag, Microsoft is only giving away only three units of this console, along with a "Game of Thrones" Season 1-5 Blu-ray set, according to The Verge.
The units will be raffled off via Xbox France's media channels, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. There will be one winner per site.
Translated by Tech Insider, Xbox France wrote,"RT & tweet #XboxLovesGoT to win the #XboxOne collector #GameOfThrones & the integral box."
The mechanics on the Facebook page is almost the same, except the winner will be taken from the likes and comments on the photo.
On Instagram, fans would need to like the photo and tag one of their Instagram friends to get a chance to win the coveted unit.
The site did not say whether or not there are territory restrictions, and is unclear if the promotion is only available in France.
Regardless, fans would need a high level of luck to get the chance of nabbing one of these consoles.
As of this writing, the Twitter post already has over 16,000 retweets. On Facebook, the post was already liked over 34,000 times, with over 26,000 comments.
The Instagram post has close to 5,000 likes and over 3,000 comments and tags, so if you really want that Xbox One console, you'll have better luck on Instagram.
Chances are, unless you have an insanely huge amount of luck on your side, you'd probably won't get one.
This is not the first time that Xbox France has initiated an Xbox One giveaway. The company ran a similar promotion in April for the limited edition Iron Man-themed Xbox One, Eurogamer reported. The promotion coincided with the opening of the "Captain America: Civil War" movie.
The last episode of "Game of Thrones" Season Six, "The Winds of Winter," was aired on June 26.
