There is a lot that video game consoles can do today, but even the newest PlayStation or X-Box cannot cook food. Although consoles usually heat up a little after operating for hours, they are not yet designed to heat chickens – and it probably wouldn’t be fair to be covered in grease and crumbs.
CHRISTMAS DAY: HERE ARE THE RESTAURANTS, OPEN STORES
But all of that is about to change: KFC and Cooler Master, a manufacturer of computer hardware, revealed specifications for KFConsole. While the device has the ability to produce 4K graphics and display 240 frames per second, it is also designed with a slot to keep chicken pieces warm while on.
“Never risk letting your chicken cool down again thanks to the patented Chicken Chamber,” writes Cooler Master on its website. “Using the natural system of heat and airflow, you can now focus on your game and enjoy hot and crispy chicken between rounds. “

Specific details were not disclosed about when or where the device will be available. It is also unclear whether or not this device is a console (similar to the PlayStation or Xbox) or whether it is more of a gaming PC with a built-in chicken heating slot.
KFC originally teased the console back Twitter in June this year, although it was not clear at the time whether the restaurant chain was kidding.
