What is Xbox Museum? How to explore your gaming history in 3D
MicrosoftXbox Museum is part of Xbox’s 20th-anniversary celebration, allowing players to take a deep look at the company’s history in making games alongside their own unique gaming experiences.
Microsoft’s Xbox launched back in 2001 and changed the shape of console gaming forever. From blockbuster successes like Halo and Gears of War to cult-classics like Fusion Frenzy, the tech giant’s first time at the plate was a resounding homerun – but we know now that they were only getting started.
This new exhibit allows fans a chance to walk the halls of history via a virtual arena that showcases the brand’s biggest highlights and missteps of the last two decades. That’s not all, though; the interactive display also offers a more personal touch for veteran Xbox users.
