The Rock Teams Up With Microsoft To Bring New Xbox Consoles To CHLA Patients

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — Patients at Children's Hospital Los Angeles will soon be getting custom Xbox Series X consoles courtesy of entertainer and athlete Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

The consoles will be delivered in specialized Gamers Outreach Karts, also known as GO Karts, that are "portable kiosks built to easily provide recreation to children who are unable to leave their rooms in hospitals."

Two decades ago, the American-Canadian actor and producer helped Microsoft launch the original X Box, and said Monday on social media that he was excited to team up with the tech giant again.

The new Xbox Series X debuts tomorrow.
