Both Google maps and Wikipedia are crowd sourced, so anybody could modify either of these. I wouldn't use either as sources for "news."

This video shows French Google maps has potential new names added for the Avengers Campus Rides at Disneyland Paris. I can't see them on UK Google so it would be good if one of the French readers could verify?

Wikipedia has name changed to reflect new information. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stark%27s_Test_I.A_Coaster

Hotel New York is becoming Marvel themed. Construction can be seen from the outside.

Given that there is a Spiderman attraction at Universal Orlando, one could easily want to make a direct comparison, but from the plans as posted and more recent details, this is quite a different ride.

The ride paths are different with the Orlando attraction being seemingly random and irregular, while the Disney layout is a set of 180 degree turns zig zagging through the facility with minimal voids and wasted space. From a space planning perspective, it is actually quite efficient. The ceiling in the Disney layout also appears to be quite low so I suspect the ride vehicle is designed to focus or restrict the view to the screens or sets at eye level.

In Orlando the attraction features large screens and physical sets that riders speed through in a more frantic and disorienting path while the story line develops. I suspect the Disney Paris attraction will focus less on physical sets, but instead offer interactivity, most likely involving shooting webs (hence the code name Slingshot).

These are some great blueprints for Disneyland Paris Frozen Land from which we can extract a bit of information.

In comparison to the Frozen Land in Epcot, the foot print for Disneyland Paris is far more rectangular, while in Orlando it's an irregularly shaped pentagon. Both ride areas are nearly the same surface area in the range of 3200 square meters when traced (not including retail, restaurants etc...)

Orlando used an existing facility so this new purpose built facility should have fewer design limitations.

While the mountain appears to be impressive in height in the artist renders, and will no doubt be impressive in person, the height is probably in the range of 30-35 meters. This is considerably shorter than the Matterhorn or Expedition Everest. Some clever forced perspective and scaling will ensure the mountain appears much taller than it is.

The village of the Frozen Land, and castle that will be off to the right as you approach, hides the bulk of what is otherwise a rectangular box nearly 20 meters in height.
