I'm non sure exactly who asked for a collaboration between Xbox manufacturer Microsoft and cosmetics powerhouse OPI. But to those xi or twelve people, congratulations: Your wish has come up true.

(In related news, Microsoft has finally discontinued the Xbox One.)

Today, Microsoft appear the OPI x Xbox drove for Bound 2022, which includes 12 gamer-inspired boom polish colors. Even if you're not in the habit of painting your nails, don't click away merely withal — buying these real-world cosmetics could be your ticket to digital cosmetics in Forza Horizon 5 and Halo Infinite.

This info comes from the official Xbox Wire blog, and to my knowledge, it's the start time that the publication has dedicated an entire post to nail shine. Once you get by the novelty, though, the collaboration isn't every bit bizarre every bit information technology may seem. This spring, OPI will offer 12 new blast polish colors, each one with a slight Xbox twist. The colors themselves aren't anything outlandish, either, ranging from pale pinks to dark purples.

The names are fairly clever, at to the lowest degree, including "Center and Con-soul" ("A shimmery scarlet red that takes nails to the side by side level"), "Y'all Had Me at Halo" ("A shimmery galactic blue that volition give you sparkly stats") and "Tin't CTRL Me" ("A shimmery robin's egg blue that cannot exist CTRL'd.")

The whole line will be available at Ulta stores starting in February, and the prices range from $11 to $13, depending on the fashion. Subsequently in the year, you lot tin can expect to find the OPI x Xbox collection at Amazon, CVS, Target, Dillard'due south and other major cosmetics stores.

It wouldn't be an Xbox tie-in without some in-game goodies, nonetheless. Each bottle of nail polish unlocks "hue-matched, in-game content for Forza Horizon v and Halo Infinite starting February 1." In other words, if y'all buy a bottle of "Sage Simulation," you'll also go shimmery dark-green cosmetic skins in Forza and Halo. (As some fans take pointed out, this is actually one of the cheaper means to unlock skins in Halo Infinite at the moment.)

There'south one major hitch in the plan, however. "Have you dreamed of having your controller perfectly friction match your nails?" the Xbox Wire mail inquires, right below a photo of three pastel Xbox controllers with matching nail patterns. Even if you have no interest in nail smoothen, a whole new line of Xbox controller colors sounds tempting.

However, you probably won't be able to get these gorgeous accessories. Instead of selling the controllers directly, the Xbox Wire post explains that "Fans will take the gamble to win custom Xbox Wireless Controllers in peak trending hues" on Instagram and TikTok.

In other words, if you lot've dreamed of your controller perfectly matching your nails, you may have to go along dreaming.

Still, the Xbox x OPI collection seems like an unconventional crossover from two beloved brands. It's certain to appeal to some stylish Xbox players — or their partners, who can give the gift of nail smooth, and keep the corrective codes for themselves.
