Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition hides a secret nod to Xbox history

The Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition hides a subtle throwback to Xbox history across the console and its packaging.

Microsoft's latest video games console, the Xbox One X, is arriving in the hands of the public, with the promise of delivering high fidelity 4K gaming in the living room. Though supplies are limited at launch, those who preordered their consoles are receiving their reservations across the globe – most notably in the form of a special "Project Scorpio Edition," which saw limited availability for early adopters.

The main draw of the Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition is its exclusive design, which pays homage to the console's original codename first unveiled back at E3 2016. Both the console and packaging sport unique designs made to appeal to long-time fans, with throwbacks to the brand's history throughout the years. The most obvious of these is the outer box design, which draws heavy influence from the original Xbox console of nearly two decades ago.

Upon taking a closer look at both the console and packaging, the Xbox One X Project Scorpio edition also showcases a mysterious string of numbers, "0105101317." Although discreet, this small aspect builds on the idea of being an edition for loyal fans, referencing launches of previous products throughout the Xbox brand's lifetime.
