Over the by few months, Xbox has aggressively pursued all sorts of cantankerous-brand partnerships to promote Halo Infinite, the latest entry in Xbox's flagship serial. We've seen Halo-themed Pringles, Rockstar Energy Drink cans, and Razer gaming peripherals, but the franchise'south latest crossover is possibly the well-nigh unexpected one and then far.

The Los Angeles Lakers unveiled today an exclusive "Lakers Chief Chief 117" bundle featuring a figurine of the Chief himself, an Xbox controller adorning the Lakers' color scheme, and a Lakers bailiwick of jersey featuring Principal Chief's title, besides as his callsign, 117, printed on it. Considering Principal Chief is canonically seven feet ii inches tall, it's a wonder the Lakers didn't sign him until now.

The bundle cannot be purchased online; it's only available at the STAPLES Eye Team LA store, and moreover, information technology goes on sale starting Friday at one:17 PM PST, which is roughly three hours following its announcement. If you're interested in getting the bundle, but located outside of the LA area, you lot might be out of luck depending on how fast this sells.

As strange of a crossover as this is, it's a surprisingly expert bargain at $139.99. Xbox controllers typically run for $69.99, while sports jerseys ofttimes go for over $100. LeBron James' Lakers bailiwick of jersey is currently $109.99 on the NBA shop. Granted, the one featured in the packet isn't a real player'south jersey, but it's nonetheless Nike-branded, and such dress is mostly rather expensive.
