Last month, Rockstar Games re-released L.A. Noire for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. There’s also a special virtual reality-themed set of cases coming for the HTC Vive on Dec. 15. In celebration of this flurry of new releases, Rockstar will give away a series of custom-made L.A. Noire -themed consoles to four winners.

Via Rockstar Newswire, the consoles include an Xbox One X, PlayStation 4 Pro, Nintendo Switch, and PC, each etched with a flashy art deco-inspired gold-tone over black motif. It's not exactly subtle, but the creations capture the feeling of the game quite well, right down to the Gatsby artificiality of old Hollywood glamour. And if a winner does decide to put one of these exclusive pieces in their normal console rotation, it might be worth investing in some sort of cover to keep the gloss finish of these one-of-a-kind pieces safe.

Rockstar will host several different sweepstakes until all the systems are given out, and the first giveaway will be for the Xbox One X. Beginning now through Thursday, Dec. 7, you can enter the L.A. Noire Custom Xbox One X Social Club Sweepstakes via the Social Club Events page. You don’t need to buy anything to be able to enter, though you may want to temper your expectations to win one of the consoles. You can keep checking back to Rockstar Games’ Newswire blog for additional updates as the contests wear on.

L.A. Noire’s re-release for modern consoles contains the original game in its entirety as well as all the previously available DLC. It also features technical and visual enhancements with improved lighting, new cinematic camera angles, high-resolution textures and more. It plays natively in 1080p on Xbox One and in 4K for Xbox One X. Besides the PC version with high-res mods, this is the best the game has look since its debut.
