Universal Japan's Upcoming Donkey Kong Rail-Jumping Ride Tech Detailed
Its finally here, performing for you
We’ve known for a while that Universal Studios Japan would be expanding into Donkey Kong’s Jungle, but outside of some concept art, we didn’t know a lot. However, we now know a little bit about one of the upcoming rides.
Ripped straight out of the Donkey Kong Country games, one of the new minecart-coasters will involve broken tracks that riders will “jump” over! Of course, the ride doesn’t actually do this, instead relying on a secret track below the visible track that allows the minecart to perform these stunts.
The video above breaks down how this works, but is only avaliable in German. If you (like me) might prefer an English version, check out this Gizmodo Article for a thorough breakdown of the ride to come!
