Watch out, PS5 and Xbox Series X, the KFC gaming console is real. It's called the KFConsole, it's essentially a VR-ready high-end gaming PC, and it comes with a built-in chicken warmer. Boom, checkmate! Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

Back in June, just after the PS5 reveal, KFC released a ridiculous trailer for the KFConsole, but everyone just figured they were joking. Turns out, they were dead serious. KFC, the chicken place, has teamed up with Cooler Master and launched a gaming console capable of 4K and 240FPS. The joint press release doesn't mention a price or release date, but I've reached out for clarification and will update this article if I hear back.


quote:

"Moving forward from our initial teaser campaign earlier this year, we're so pleased to finally give the fans exactly what they wanted; making the KFConsole a reality," said KFC PR boss Mark Cheevers. "We all know the console war is vicious, but we're very confident in the KFConsole as our flagship entry. This machine is capable of running games at top-level specs, all on top of keeping your meal warm for you to enjoy during your gaming experience... what's not to like? If Sony or Microsoft want any tips on how to engineer a chicken chamber for their efforts next time, they'd be welcome to get in touch."

It's beautiful, but I'm going to break all the rules and put Tostino's Pizza Rolls® in there.

I'm going to try. I need a new gaming system so this fits. But I bet they're going to be even harder to buy than the PS5.

Looking at the system, this is the most curious question I have. I'm also going to put Popeyes in there.

There's no chance I'm putting chicken in there.
