MSC Cruises today announced details of the new technological entertainment options that passengers will be able to experience on MSC Seascape, the company's next ship, which will be launched in December of this year.
Among them all, the star attraction will be ROBOTRON, a thrilling ride that offers the exhilarating sensation of a roller coaster at sea combined with a personalized DJ music experience. The ship will also feature two new virtual reality experiences and a whole host of high-tech entertainment designed to be enjoyed by thrill-seekers of all ages.
ROBOTRON is a state-of-the-art robotic arm with an attached gondola that can accommodate three passengers, who will fly 53 meters above sea level. Inside, passengers will have a clear 360° view while suspended over the edge of the platform, moving in different directions. ROBOTRON also offers a personalized music experience with a DJ, where passengers can select their musical preferences and enjoy a giant screen with vibrant projections as the robotic arm moves to the beat. Passengers will be able to see the DJ booth, with the rhythm and bass visualized as colorful patterns on the video screen as the arm bounces and rotates to the music.
Each cruise passenger can select their intensity level according to their preferences, making ROBOTRON a very exciting, unique, and fun experience for the whole family.
Brandon Briggs, Senior Vice President of Onboard Revenue, stated: “We are thrilled to offer guests a wealth of high-tech entertainment options onboard MSC Seascape to satisfy even the most adrenaline-seeking guests. ROBOTRON, the first-ever robotic attraction to appear on a cruise ship, will set a new standard for fun with an immersive and personalized travel experience, unique to each guest. Our additional entertainment options, featuring virtual reality elements, special effects, and simulators, will ensure unforgettable experiences that will leave guests amazed.”.
