“#Microsoft pleads game<\/a>rs not to vape into their Xboxes<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Microsoft has a simple suggestion for gamers worried about smoke billowing out of their Xboxes: Don\u2019t blow smoke into them in the first place.<\/p>\n

The tech titan offered a tongue-in-cheek response to videos purporting to show brand-new Xbox Series<\/a> X consoles spouting clouds of smoke \u2014 some of which may have been faked by vaping internet hucksters.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t believe we have to say this, but please do not blow vape smoke into your Xbox Series X,\u201d Microsoft\u2019s Xbox team said on Twitter<\/a> Wednesday evening.<\/p>\n

Microsoft chimed in after clips circulated app<\/a>earing to show the $500 consoles \u2014 which officially launched on Tuesday \u2014 spewing gray smoke from their cooling vents, suggesting the system had overheated and caught fire.<\/p>\n

But another viral video<\/a> demonstrated how the earlier footage could have been staged by simply exhaling vapor from a vape pen into the bottom of the Xbox and letting the \u201csmoke\u201d circulate through the machine.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not clear whether Microsoft has found any authentic cases of smoking Xboxes, but the Series X\u2019s early days haven\u2019t been entirely free of glitches. One Twitter<\/a> user who complained about smoke also posted a video<\/a> of the console making a loud popping sound and abruptly shutting down. Other people have reported problems with the machine\u2019s disc drive, according to Polygon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Microsoft didn\u2019t immediately respond to a request for comment early Wednesday, but the company is reportedly looking into the problems.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe take all product safety reports seriously and our products meet or exceed industry standards,\u201d Microsoft told a reporter for The Verge<\/a>. \u201cWe are in the process of investigating further.\u201d\n <\/div>\n
