Edit
20 years after Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson helped unveil the first Xbox to the world, he is once again teaming up with Microsoft to give away Xbox Series X to children's hospitals around the U.S. The Rock announced the news on Twitter, and shared a video explaining how he, Microsoft, and Gamers Outreach would be gifting 20 children's hospitals one of a kind 'ROCK XBOX Series X' consoles that will allow "50,000+ kids" to experience the next-generation of gaming. As detailed on Xbox Wire, these consoles will be put in specialized Gamers Outreach Karts, also known as GO Karts, that are "portable kiosks built to easily provide recreation to children who are unable to leave their rooms in hospitals." These special edition Xbox Series X consoles feature Johnson's Brahma Bull logo and include a special engraved message that says "Keep smiling and have fun. Love, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson." There will also be matching Xbox Wireless Controllers with the same Brahma Bull logo. These GO Karts will arrive, over the next year, at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Children’s Hospital Colorado, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, Children’s Hospital Orange County, Children’s Hospital St. Louis, Children’s Wisconsin, C.S.
