Rough Guides – with generous support its Xbox partners – is offering a free eBook edition of The Rough Guide to Xbox so gamers can make the most of their time at home via in-game digital tourism.
Like all Rough Guides, The Rough Guide to Xbox is a pioneering guide that embraces digital tourism in a gaming context, visiting places virtually in Xbox games. Using Rough Guides’ unique “tell it like it is” ethos and user-friendly format, it’s designed to encourage wandering off-piste, away from the gameplay action. All of which means you can explore epic off-the-beaten-track locations – from the dense jungles and temples of Shadow of the Tomb Raider, to the otherworldly planet of Anthem – while staying safe at home.
Rough Guides CEO René Frey said: “While travel isn’t possible at present, we at Rough Guides remain committed to helping readers make the most of their time at home, which is why we’re offering this free eBook of ‘The Rough Guide to Xbox’ – the perfect way to explore new worlds and landscapes while we can’t travel for real. We’re very grateful to our partners at Xbox for working with us to make this possible.”
Michael Flatt, Global Integrated Marketing, Xbox said: “On Xbox you really can travel to a variety of rich, absorbing worlds without leaving the comfort and safety of your own home and we’re proud to bring the ultimate guide to those worlds to gamers for free in partnering with Rough Guides. We encourage all to stay home, stay safe and enjoy your adventures.”
