This latest console features unique hand-painted artwork in the beloved style that Rubii is known for. She shared Xbox ANZ’s tweet saying, “I hope this collaboration gets all you non-Indigenous mob to celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, especially our elders! I hope it sparks conversations in your household, and I hope you see Us!”
We collaborated with @lifeofrubii to create a hand-painted Series S, inspired by this year's theme, For Our Elders.
An auction will be held through her page & donations will go to @IDKnowYourself1
