VelociCoaster Construction Walls Are Down. This amazing new coaster coming to Universal Orlando’s Islands of Adventure in 2021. This multi-launch looping coaster will bring a whole new breed of coaster to the theme park capital of the world.
In this update we checkout VelociCoaster testing, look at Jurassic River that is down for its annual maintenance and the construction status of the new Universal Store.
Patent for 'Hybrid Ride Vehicle Systems and Methods' was reportedly designed for a Zelda themed ride that was being developed to replace Lost Continent at Islands of Adventure. This project is likely stalled and could be cancelled due to the pandemic, but the concept was supposedly being developed to open if Super Nintendo World was successful and they wanted to add more Nintendo lands for every Universal park over time.
The ride system starts as a boat ride, but then turns into a suspended dark ride halfway through.
