Celebrity
Cruises has joined forces with Microsoft’s Xbox to integrate the
leading destination of video game entertainment into guests’ modern
luxury vacations. Slated to introduce one of the industry’s largest
Xbox experiences at sea, Celebrity’s alliance boasts entertaining
Xbox-themed spaces across its fleet, offering families interactive
Xbox Games experiences for children, teens and even the kid in every
adult.
Guests
can anticipate enhancements to existing venues and onboard
programming as soon as this summer, with the inclusion of
Xbox-featured activities and gaming areas in the youth program’s
Fun Factory and X-Club facilities. For youth who have been registered
to participate by their parents, the Celebrity Xbox experience will
offer exciting age-appropriate games and themed nights ranging from
sports and dance to adventure and racing on Xbox 360 and Kinect for
Xbox 360.
Adults
also have the opportunity to connect and enjoy the Xbox experience
through free play and at scheduled themed events, including Zumba®
parties and sports tournaments, available on traveling Kinect for
Xbox 360 consoles in different venues throughout the ships.
To
celebrate the launch, one lucky family of four will win a seven-night
cruise onboard the Celebrity ship of their choice. For a chance to
win, guests enter online through June 18, 2013
atwww.celebritycruises.com/xboxsweeps.
The
newly “Solsticized” Celebrity Constellation is
the first of Celebrity’s ten ships to introduce the complete
onboard Xbox experience when it re-entered service on May 5, 2013,
after completing its scheduled drydock – just in time for families
planning their summer vacations. The remaining Celebrity ships will
offer Xbox 360 and Kinect for Xbox 360 this summer, and will unfold
the full Xbox experience by the end of 2013.
