It was just announced that Six Flags Great Adventure is getting a brand new coaster, and we’ll be honest, it looks AWESOME!
Bakunawa is officially making its Six Flags debut in 2027. This exciting new coaster is the replacement for Kingda Ka at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey, which used to be the tallest, fastest, and longest drop coaster in the world before it was permanently closed back in 2024. This new coaster is set to live up to the legacy and will be the fastest and tallest spinning launch coaster in the world. It will also be the world’s first floorless spinning coaster and the first upside-down launch.
Bakunawa
Six Flags has shared the Legend of Bakunawa: “According to legend, a mysterious sea serpent with purple, shimmering scales lives beneath the waves. Some say this mysterious creature hungers for the moon itself. Today, Bakunawa rises — those brave enough to face its fury can join the serpent on its skyward path.”

They have also shared that this coaster is, “Inspired by Bakunawa, a legendary creature of folklore, this coaster reimagines the serpent’s coiling ascent as it attempts to devour the moon. Feel the pull of the eclipse as you launch through the world’s fastest inversion, reaching speeds up to 100 miles per hour. After spiraling 382 feet into the air, you plummet back to earth, spinning to the shore as Bakunawa returns to the sea.”
Bakunawa
In total, this coaster will break SIX World Records:
This coaster looks incredible and so unique! We cannot wait for guests to experience the thrill of Bakunawa when it officially opens next year.
