Rumor has it, an Xbox Series S-themed toaster is on the way.

Whilst not formally confirmed by Xbox or Microsoft – which means we can only treat this as a rumor or hoax for now – a tweet from Gyo Jvbfr posits that a toaster styled after an Xbox Series X is up for pre-order, and yes, that includes a full spec rundown and some promotional images. 

Here, take a look:

Whilst the retailer is French - which means right now, the toaster is only available to pre-order in France and Belgium, I'm afraid - the accompanying imagery is written in English, so we know that the toaster comes with three additional modes - defrost, bagel, and cancel - along with six browning levels, a removable crumb tray, and two bread slots (thanks, XboxSquad.fr via Windows Central).

Given we've already had an Xbox fridge, I don't suppose it's that much of a leap that Microsoft is branching out into toasters, too - especially as the Xbox mini-fridge pre-orders almost instantly sold out at various retailers across the UK and US.

Interestingly, that's not all, either. According to XboxSquad, there's more Xbox-themed decor on the way, including plates, ramen bowls, mugs, bottle openers, storage boxes, and even a 14-inch Energy Sword lamp that looks like Master Chief just picked it up from the corpse of a dead Covenant. 

The idea for an Xbox mini-fridge started way back in October 2020 when rapper Snoop Dog shared a video of himself opening a mysterious fridge before it was swiftly deleted. A few days later, there was a giveaway that Xbox held which promised the winner a one-of-a-kind mini-fridge. 

A few days after that, Xbox put out a poll which resulted in the company deciding to make the fridges available to the general public, too, some of which went up on eBay for ridiculous money.
