MSC Cruises has unveiled the entertainment experiences aboard its new ship, MSC World Asia, from innovative game shows to thrilling outdoor rides.
MSC World Asia, the third ship in the cruise line's World Class series, is set to sail the Mediterranean from 11 December 2026.
With its new ship, MSC Cruises has "pushed creativity to new limits", said MSC Cruises' family entertainment development director, Matteo Mancini.
Starting with the MSC Luna Park Arena, this entertainment venue serves as a hub for interactive and immersive experiences. It will host three original game shows – Code Breakers, Labyrinth and Chart Toppers.
The Clubhouse is a nostalgic and colourful space for active family entertainment, providing a Lego family zone, as well as roller skating, bumper cars, and sports and wellness sessions.
The Harbour is an outdoor theme park-style destination featuring a ropes course, the longest dry slide at sea, and Europe's first over-water swing – Cliffhanger.
Additional attractions in The Harbour include the Twin Racer and U Drop waterslides, and a new playground for younger guests.

Teen entertainment on MSC World Asia has been expanded to include a new artificial intelligence (AI) avatar called Yuna that hosts exclusive events such as the Yuna K-Pop Party in MSC Luna Park Arena and The Clubhouse.
As for children of all ages, Doremiland is a 1,000-square-metre venue with dedicated spaces for different age groups. It features state-of-the-art technology, the latest gaming experiences, and a full arcade.
Additionally, younger guests can enjoy two new Lego-themed rooms.
