Universal Orlando teases new Harry Potter thrill ride
Universal Orlando’s Wizarding World of Harry Potter is to get a new thrill ride.
The park has confirmed that it will permanently shutter the Dragon Challenge roller coaster ride later this year to make way for the new Harry Potter themed attraction.
Universal has teased only vague details so far.
"This all-new thrill ride will take you deeper into J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World, where you will encounter some of your favorite characters and creatures. It’ll be unlike anything we’ve ever done before and it will be fun for the entire family," it wrote on the UniversalOrlando blog.
"The new attraction will be one of the most highly-themed coaster experiences we’ve created. It will combine a new level of storytelling with an action-packed adventure…and a few surprises along the way," the blog added.
The ride, which will remain nameless for the time being, is expected to open sometime in 2019.
The company will release more details in the coming months, it said.
