How does it change in a sentence?

In French, Xbox is a feminine noun.

In a casual gaming setting, a French speaker might use the slang term la bécane to refer to their console or computer. This is an informal way to describe a piece of machinery.
While the name stays English, the gender is strictly dictated by the hidden noun console. In French, the gender of a branded device is often determined by the category of the object it belongs to.
In France, the phrase jouer à la Xbox uses the preposition à rather than sur, which is common in English when saying 'play on the Xbox'.

«Merci beaucoup de me laisser jouer avec ta Xbox.» «Aucun problème, mec, défonce-toi.»
"Thanks a lot for letting me play with your Xbox." "No problem dude, knock yourself out."
This sentence shows how to thank someone for letting you play with their Xbox.
