Yes, the KFC Console is real and it’ll keep your chicken warm

The KFC Console has been teased again, with the fast-food company informing us that “the console wars are over” when the weird system finally launches.

Is KFC console real?

The KFC console is very real, according to the fast-food company. Referred to as the KFConsole, the system is designed to “Power Your Hunger,” with it also including a chicken warmer to keep your food hot while you game. According to KFC, this “Chicken Chamber” will utilize the console’s natural heat and airflow system in order to allow players to keep their fried chicken hot and crispy while they play.

The console is designed by Cooler Master, a Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer that mostly focuses on cooling systems for desktops. The company also manufactures gaming keyboards, chairs, monitors, and more.

Price

The exact cost of the KFC Console is currently unknown. Cooler Master’s product output mostly consists of cheap PC hardware, so it can be assumed that the weird new system will follow suit. However, at the time of this writing, how much it will cost to buy the console has yet to be revealed.

The console looks set to be powerful, with it reportedly capable of 240 FPS gameplay, 4K visuals, and ray tracing. This means that it has the potential to cost more than the PS5 and Xbox Series X, given that it will essentially be a capable PC but in your living room.

Release date

No firm release date has been given for the KFC Console, though as images of the system are now out in the wild, it is expected sooner rather than later. According to the console’s official site, the system “has arrived,” suggesting buyers will be able to get their hands on one in the near-future.
