Raptor Spotted Being Added to New Coaster in Islands of Adventure
Yesterday, a rather large velociraptor was seen being lifted into the sky by a crane and placed on the new, unannounced, rollercoaster that is ccurrently being built at Universal.
@wewamillerToday a raptor was installed in the unannounced roller coaster in ##jurassicpark at ##islandsofadventure ##universalstudios ##universalorlando ##fyp
The rumored coaster in the Jurassic Park section of the park, is slated to be the most intense in Universal history. It is expected to be a mulit-launch coaster that reaches almost 70mph with multiple inversions. Although, no name has even been hinted at for the coaster, most people believe it will be called “Velocicoaster”.
The coaster is located in front of the Jurassic Park Discovery Center and takes the entire area of the Triceratops encounter. The theming is very similar to Jurassic World with gray concrete walls, protruding rocks and fencing. The theming makes you wonder if the area will look more like Jurassic World once the coaster is completed.
Originally, it was expected to open in 2020, but because of delays due to the COVID-19 clorues it will most likely be next year before it is completed.
