Limited Edition Gears of War 4 Xbox One S and Controllers Revealed
《战争机器4》限定Xbox One S主机及手柄正式公开
微软官方正式公布了《战争机器4》限定版Xbox One S,该主机在Xbox One S的基础上增添了《战争机器4》元素,血红色的外壳上有着的爪痕让人不禁想起游戏中的血腥场面。该主机的硬盘容量为2TB,限定套装中搭配的手柄是血红配色的《战争机器4》限定手柄,手柄上的爪痕和主机相呼应,十字键的血色同样让人浮想联翩。有趣的是,主机和手柄上的爪痕是按照《战争机器4》中新出现的怪物的设定来制作的,制作时官方使用了激光蚀刻工艺,保证了爪痕的清晰程度。
《战争机器4》限定版Xbox One S套装中还包含《战争机器4》终极版的下载码(Xbox One/Win10双版本)、武器和角色皮肤、多人模式徽章、六个道具包,购买该套装的玩家在2016年10月7日就可以提前进入游戏。该限定套装售价为449.99美元,目前官方已经开启了该限定版的预订。
值得注意的是,《战争机器4》血红色限定手柄将单独发售,不想买主机或是PC玩家可以选择直接购买该手柄。除了该限定手柄之外,微软还将推出另外一款《战争机器4》主题的手柄,该手柄仅在Gamestop和微软官方商店上架销售。这款手柄以本作主人公JD的盔甲为灵感,采用了灰蓝两色的配色。这两款手柄的售价均为74.99美元,其预订将在8月1日开启。该手柄将在九月中旬陆续发货。
《战争机器4》将在2016年10月11日上市。




Official 'Gears of War 4' Xbox One S forged by monster claws and fire
The company's first widely available custom Xbox One S — the console redesign announced at E3 — draws on Gears 4 for inspiration. Its blood-red exterior is scored by faux claw marks, a nod to the upcoming game's new Swarm menace.
The limited edition Gears of War 4 Xbox One S sports a 2TB hard drive and a custom "Crimson Omen" controller that borrows the console's color scheme.
The controller features the same distinctive claw marks as the console along with other nifty flourishes, such as a bloody thumbprint splashed across the D-pad. It will also be sold separately.
The claw marks were added using a laser-etching process that cut into the plastic casing deep enough to ignite a fire. You can see that process in action below.

On the digital goods side, the console bundle includes a download code for Gears of War 4: Ultimate Edition (for XB1 and Windows 10), early access to the game on Oct. 7, Gears 4 weapon and character skins, a multiplayer lobby emblem and six "Gear" packs containing in-game items.
Microsoft will also be releasing a second Gears 4-themed controller, also priced at $74.99, as a GameStop and Microsoft Store exclusive. This one features a grey-and-blue color scheme based on the armor worn by protagonist J.D. Fenix, the son longtime Gears hero Marcus Fenix.

Both controllers sport the same enhancements that Microsoft revealed at E3 2016 in June, including a newly textured grip, Bluetooth support and increased wireless range.
The two sold-separately controller packages also include some Gears-specific digital goods to justify the premium $74.99 pricing. You'll get a multiplayer lobby emblem and three "Gear" packs. It's not yet clear what these packs will contain, but it'll likely be cosmetic enhancements for the game's online modes.
Pre-orders for the console bundle are up now and pre-orders for the controllers open on Aug. 1, with the bundle priced at $449.99 and controllers selling individually for $74.99. Orders will start shipping in mid-September.
