Additionally, to celebrate the highly anticipated release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Microsoft has created an ultra-exclusive, custom Xbox One X console. US residents can bid on this custom Shadow of the Tomb Raider Xbox One X, which is signed by Camilla Luddington, the performance and voice artist for Lara Croft.
