In both cases, you'll be paying off the console over 24 months. Telstra also plans to offer the upcoming Xbox Series X on a plan later this year.

If you're keen to enter, you can do so through the Telstra site. To be in the running, you'll need to complete an entry form that Telstra about yourself, your gaming experience, and favourite genre. In addition, you'll to provide a link to a video review you've created, and a 300 word article that describes you favourite parts of the game, tips, and who would enjoy the game.

Telstra is looking for candidates with at least several years of experience in gaming, but anyone passionate is being encouraged to apply.
