Today Microsoft detailed the events that will celebrate the launch of its new console, the Xbox One X.

A launch livestream from the launch celebration in New York will be hosted on Mixer, Twitch, Facebook, and YouTube Live. It will air from 8 PM Pacific Time (11 PM EST) on November 6th, and it’ll last one hour.

Incidentally, if you are in New York yourself you can check out the celebration for yourself at the flagship Microsoft Store on Fifth Avenue. Microsoft will be distributing exclusive Xbox swag and you’ll have a chance to win a new Samsung QLED 4K TV.

Giveaways and gameplay demos will also be hosted at Microsoft Stores across North America, and you’ll be able to pick up pre-orders a 9 PM Pacific Time (Midnight EST). GameStop stores and over 600 Best Buy locations will also do the same. On the other side of the world, EB Games will have midnight launches in Australia and New Zealand.
