Ride Shot Gun with the Master Chief

Ride Shot Gun with the Master Chief in a Warthog, Experience Zero Gravity, Visit Some of the Biggest Gaming Studios And Attend Super Bowl Xlix: It’s the Xbox One High Flyers Tour

Ten days. Ten epic experiences. A lifetime of bragging rights.

If you’re among the thousands of Kiwis who have dreamt of soaring through space and riding shot gun with the Master Chief from “Halo”, then your dream could be about to come true…seriously.

Xbox is offering one lucky New Zealander and a mate the opportunity to jet set across the globe for 10 days on the High Flyers trip of a lifetime.

The competition prize includes tickets to Super Bowl XLIX and the Merseyside Derby. To top it off, there’s exclusive access to major game development studios in Singapore, Canada, the United Sates and the United Kingdom.

And all of this after touching down from a ZERO-G Experience® aboard a parabolic flight with Zero Gravity Corporation. Not a bad prize, right?

High Flyers is about celebrating Xbox fans and the spectacular games on Xbox One. The close of 2014 has seen the Xbox One games portfolio step up to the next level. Acclaimed new titles have demonstrated what fans can expect from the new generation of gaming and it’s time to reward their ongoing enthusiasm.

Xbox New Zealand Lead, Steven Blackburn, says: “Twelve years with Xbox and this is the most exciting prize I’ve seen. I’m ecstatic that two lucky Kiwis will be on that plane. I’m looking forward to meeting them and hope they fly the New Zealand flag proudly on tour.”

For a chance at the grand prize, gamers 18 years and over need only own and play the featured Game of the Week once to enter the draw. It’s worth noting that High Flyers is a seven-week competition and playing all seven featured games earns seven entries.
