This man is the world’s first official Xbox One owner

The first person to officially buy and own an Xbox One is the man pictured just to the right.

His name is Dan Livingstone and he’s from New Zealand which is where the first Xbox One launch event is well underway.

There will be a number of global Microsoft events today to mark the console’s arrival in a host of time zones. The UK shindig takes place at Leicester Square in London tonight.
