Xbox Series X gaming console from Microsoft was unveiled at the Game Awards 2019 by Xbox Boss Phil Spencer. Even though it was a powerful machine loaded with cool new features, its unusual design became the center of attention and everyone started to make fun of it. The Xbox Series X faced heavy criticism and then one of the leaked images revealed that even the upcoming Sony PlayStation 5 feature a similar design.

Fans and gamers started to troll the design of Xbox Series X and compared it with household items such as refrigerator, cabinet, wardrobe, toaster, public ashtray, a trash can, and so much more. But when Sony PS5 was said to have a similar design, it created a lot of controversies and later the user clarified that it was just a joke and the whole accusations of design copy was a hoax to save the Xbox X from criticism.

A Twitter user named ZhugeEX first shared an image that accused Sony PS5 to use a similar design as the Xbox Series X when everyone was making fun of the latter’s double door refrigerator design. But when the whole issue got out of hand, ZhugeEX clarified that he was just joking and added a fridge next to the Xbox Series X and called it PS5.
