The Xbox 360 is a home video game console created by Microsoft and released in 2005 to compete with the Playstation 3 and Wii, being a successor to the original Xbox and the second console in the Xbox series. Two Banjo-Kazooie ports, the Xbox Live Arcade ports of Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie, and a new game, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts were developed for the system, with the latter later receiving L.O.G.'s Lost Challenges as DLC for 400 Microsoft Points.

A racing game, Banjo-Karting, was being developed for the console but was eventually cancelled. Banjo and Kazooie did make a guest appearance in another racing title for the Xbox 360, however, Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing with Banjo-Kazooie.
