Inflatable Xbox One controller is perfect if you ever manage to go outside

Https%3a%2f%2fblueprint-api-production.s3.amazonaws.com%2fuploads%2fcard%2fimage%2f349887%2f28845d9f-7448-479c-bd40-9411b08b0d3a

It's peak summer in Australia right now, and despite the blazing heat, there's plenty of people who'd rather play video games inside.

But if peer pressure sees you forced into going outside, there's now an inflatable pool toy in the shape of the Xbox One S controller, so you can show where your allegiances truly lie.

The inflatable features two drink holders where the "menu" and "view" buttons are, and the joysticks pop-up for grip while you're lounging in the water.

Sadly, it's an Australia-only item for the moment. The pool toy is being given away on the Australian Microsoft Store Facebook page, with "further distribution plans to be announced in the coming days."

The product is a follow-up from the Xbox Onesie (geddit?) that was released last year, which was also only available in Australia. 

The water sure does look nice.
