Rumor: Sunset Overdrive Xbox One Bundle to Strike This Holiday Season

Want an Xbox One, but waiting for a bundle before jumping in? This holiday season may have something for you.

During today's RTX Live conference in Austin, Texas, a live stream posted the following:

They were asked if there will be a special edition Xbox One for the game available. There answer was: "Stay tuned!".

Previously, a well-known insider that goes by the name Ntkrnl proposed that a white Xbox One bundle with a "fancy ass controller" and a copy of Sunset Overdrive would land later this year. As with many of his other leaks which eventually came true (including Halo: The Master Chief Collection and Crackdown 3 confirmation pre-announcement), it appears he may have been right after all.

Sony will be releasing a Destiny PS4 Bundle later this year, and based upon initial impressions it's going to sell a lot of units. Microsoft needs something of its own to compete. Sunset Overdrive may be a solid choice given it's the biggest Xbox One exclusive of this holiday season. 

Ntkrnl also leaked that a 1TB Xbox One would be available this November. If the Sunset Overdrive bundle is real, chances are the 1TB bundle would be as well. It's currently unclear if the aforementioned Sunset Overdrive Bundle will include Kinect.

While this is by no means official, there's enough evidence to conclude that it's likely true. Stay tuned for an announcement from Microsoft.
