Definitely not the announcement we were expecting…

In a year full of shit strange enough to make any mortal question the meaning of their existence, Xbox has now had to make an announcement no one ever expected them to make, and bloody hell, it’s got us wondering where we’re at in 2020 if humanity is doing this weird shit.

To give you a bit of background, over the last couple of days the Xbox Series X arrived to those who pre-ordered the console, and naturally, gamers have been testing its ins and outs. However, a bunch of those gamers have been doing this with the hope of going viral, and well, they’ve definitely done that.

Specifically, an account on Twitter has managed to make the Xbox look like its smoking by blowing vape smoke into one side with the inbuilt fans blowing it out of the top of the console, consequently making it look like its actually on fire (skip to 0:44 in the vid below to see what we’re talking about).

CANSADO de las FAKE NEWS.

It seems Xbox was properly shook by the vid, prompting them to hilariously respond “We can’t believe we have to say this, but please do not blow vape smoke into your Xbox Series X.” They then twisted the knife a little extra, adding “For any non-vape related support questions please check out the info here” before linking a their FAQ page.

Pretty hilarious response by the tech giant. Check out some proper roasting below.
