We’ve seen Microsoft come up with some cool custom Xbox One systems before, and now another one has just entered the picture. Indeed, you can now bid on a custom Shadow of the Tomb Raider Xbox One X to benefit charity.

Bids for the custom console are now open on eBay, with the leading price currently at $1,125. The console is decorated with custom Tomb Raider inspired designs and includes a matching Xbox Wireless Controller and also a digital download of Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

Proceeds will benefit Best Friends Animal Society, which is a nationwide animal rescue and advocacy organization, with spay neuter, TNR (trap neuter return), pet adoption and no-kill programs. There are also several other items which you can bid on, including three Xbox One X 1TB Shadow of the Tomb Raider bundles which are autographed by Camilla Luddington, the actress who plays Lara Croft.

The price might be out of reach for the average gamer, but it is still nice to see Microsoft and Square Enix teaming up to help benefit charity. Everyone else with emptier pockets might just have to wait until September 14, when the Shadow of the Tomb Raider game and the Shadow of the Tomb Raider Xbox One X bundles hits store shelves.
