Ever wanted to dangle more than 100 feet above the sea from the end of a robotic arm? MSC Cruises is about to make your dreams come true with plans for a ride on its newest ship that will offer both thrills and breathtaking views.

The new Robotron ride, debuting on the MSC Seascape during its launch in New York this December, features a “state-of-the-art robotic arm” that seats three guests in an attached gondola. The arm extends riders nearly 175 feet above the water, flipping upside down and moving in all directions to provide unobstructed 360-degree views.

Personalize Your Adventure

Riders will have the opportunity to personalize their experience, selecting everything from the thrill level—offering both family-friendly and high-intensity options—to choosing colored lights, music preferences, and more. MSC Cruises states that the ride includes a video screen and “acts as a moving DJ booth,” utilizing color and light that synchronizes with the movements of the robotic arm.

“We are excited to give our guests access to cutting-edge experiences, which is why MSC Cruises is committed to bringing our newest ships to the U.S.,” stated Rubén A. Rodríguez, the president of MSC Cruises USA. “We’re the first cruise line to offer something like Robotron at sea, and we can’t wait for thrill-seekers to discover the ride of their life surrounded by the beauty of the Caribbean.”

Additional Attractions on the MSC Seascape

In addition to the thrilling Robotron ride, the MSC Seascape will also feature new virtual reality experiences, including a flight simulator equipped with VR headsets and VR motorcycles for an immersive experience.

The MSC Seascape, boasting public areas inspired by New York City, such as the “Times Square” retail and entertainment area, will sail Caribbean cruises year-round from Miami to both the eastern and western Caribbean. Notably, this impressive ship can accommodate up to 5,877 passengers.

Over-the-top rides on cruise ships have gained immense popularity. Norwegian Cruise Line’s latest ship, the Norwegian Viva, set to debut next year, will feature an outdoor, three-level go-kart track alongside other thrill rides. Additionally, the Carnival Jubilee, also launching next year, will include the cruise line’s exhilarating BOLT roller coaster on its top deck.
