Six Flags Great Adventure has announced a significant construction milestone for Bakunawa, the park's highly anticipated new coaster, as assembly of the attraction's ride vehicles is now underway. Park teams are currently assembling nine of the coaster's 10 ride cars, with the remaining vehicle already completed and on-site. Once finished, Bakunawa will operate with two five-car trains.

Six Flags Great Adventure today unveiled BAKUNAWA, the world's tallest and fastest spinning launch coaster. Debuting in 2027, it will serve as the signature attraction of the park's transformed Boardwalk area. Inspired by the lore of Bakunawa, the legendary sea serpent of Philippine mythology, BAKUNAWA blends cutting-edge engineering with immersive thematic design to deliver an experience unlike anything else in the world. Standing 382 feet tall, BAKUNAWA joins an elite class of giga coasters, ranking among the five tallest roller coasters in the world while reaching speeds of 100 mph.
