Microsoft’s Xbox Fridge is now available to pre-order in Canada

Following the fridge’s release in the United States last month, Microsoft’s Xbox Series X ‘Mini Fridge’ is now available for pre-order in the Canadian Microsoft Store starting at 9am ET/6am PT on December 15th.

If U.S. pre-orders for the amusing joke that Microsoft has thankfully taken far too are any indication, the Series X Mini Fridge will likely sell out in a matter of minutes. With this in mind, if you’re interested in buying the Mini Fridge, make sure you act fast.

The Xbox Series X Mini Fridge costs $149 and is available for pre-order now in the Xbox Gear Store.

Canadians can pre-order Microsoft’s Xbox mini-fridge starting December 15

Canadian Xbox fans will be able to pre-order their very own Xbox Series X ‘Mini Fridge’ via the Microsoft Store starting December 15th.

Microsoft confirmed to MobileSyrup that pre-orders would open Wednesday, December 15th at 9am ET/6am PT. The Xbox mini-fridges will start shipping by January 31st, 2022. Further, the mini-fridge will cost $129.99 CAD.

Microsoft first confirmed that it will sell the Xbox Series X Mini Fridge on October 15th. Initially, the company said that it would sell the mini-fridge via Target.com in Canada, however, the company later revealed that Target can’t offer shipping to Canada. Instead, Xbox general manager Aaron Greenberg tweeted that the mini-fridge would be available directly from the Xbox Gear Shop in December.

For those who haven’t followed the mini-fridge sage, Microsoft’s Xbox Series X Mini Fridge is a 1:1 scale replica of its newest Xbox console. It’s also a fridge. The Xbox mini-fridge began as a joke and, while silly, it’s neat to see Microsoft play along and actually make an Xbox-like fridge.

Those interested can pre-order the Xbox Series X Mini Fridge on the Xbox Gear Shop.

Microsoft’s $99 Xbox Series X mini fridge is coming to Canada

What started as a joke, has somehow actually become a reality.

Microsoft has confirmed that its Xbox Series X mini fridge will launch in December 2021 with pre-orders releasing on October 19th. In an Xbox blog post, the tech giant details that the Series X-shaped fridge will cost $99.99 USD (roughly $122 CAD).

In the U.S., the fridges exclusive retailer is Target, and in Canada, would-be Series X fridge buyers will be able to purchase it online through Target.com (no one tell Zellers).

Target.com currently doesn’t offer shipping to Canada through its website, so it’s strange the company is the exclusive retailer of the mini fridge in Canada.

The fridge will also be sold in the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Spain, Netherlands and Poland.

While undeniably silly, it’s incredible to see Microsoft take the joke that the Series X looks like a fridge joke this far.
