Six Flags Great America had gone six years without opening a brand new coaster, so I was sure their next addition would be a massive, world-class ride that would rival some of the best coasters on the planet. What we got instead was Wrath of Rakshasa, the latest in a recent line of dive coasters from Swiss coaster maker Bolliger & Mabillard that are slightly smaller than the originals, but focused on more than just their namesake dive elements.

Universal Orlando has revealed the closing date of its Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit roller coaster, shifting its farewell forward. The Universal website says the ride “will permanently close on August 18, 2025 to make way for a new experience.” Previously, the resort said the coaster would be closing in early September. As is Universal’s custom, they have not officially announced any replacement.

Six Flags Great America’s big 2025 addition, Wrath of Rakshasa, will open to the public on May 31. The 180-foot-tall dive coaster sports a 171-foot, 96-degree first drop over the County Fair midway, coming close to one of the park’s original rides, Demon. The layout includes five inversions over 3,239 feet of track.

Universal Orlando’s third theme park, Epic Universe, is now officially open — without long wait times on its grand opening day. Aerial look at guest parking at about noon on Grand Opening day of Epic Universe. Universal is holding back ticket sales to find out how guests use the park. Park today is mostly Universal Resort guests. 11 hotels. Easier to fix problems now. Add day guest ticket sales later.
