Televised coverage of the event will be promoted in press and digital ads planned and bought by Universal McCann.
Digital activity will run on MySpace, which will also host video-footage and behind the scenes out-takes and interviews.
This partnership is Microsoft's latest attempt to gain market share against stiff competition from Sony's PlayStation 3 and Ninetendo's Wii.
