Six Flags Great Adventure has officially revealed Bakunawa, the massive new roller coaster coming in 2027—and the former Project Purple is even more ambitious than many people expected.
Bakunawa will stand 382 feet tall, reach speeds of 100 mph, and feature three launches, free-spinning trains, an upside-down launch, and a dramatic spike that sends riders nearly 400 feet into the air. Six Flags is also promoting it as the world’s tallest and fastest spinning coaster, along with four additional world records.
In this video, I’m breaking down the full Bakunawa announcement, analyzing the layout, trains, launches, spinning system, theme, capacity, and overall ride experience. I’ll also share my honest thoughts on whether Bakunawa is a worthy replacement for Kingda Ka—and whether this could become one of the best roller coasters in the world.
What do you think about Bakunawa? Are you excited about the final Project Purple reveal, or would you have preferred a more traditional coaster?
