Warner Bros. Movie World has today announced the Southern Hemisphere’s greatest ever attraction will be coming to the iconic Gold Coast theme park this October.

DC Rivals HyperCoaster is a game-changer for Australian theme parks, and is the longest, fastest and highest HyperCoaster in the Southern Hemisphere which is set to change the theme park landscape like nothing ever before.

Village Roadshow Theme Parks Chief Executive Officer, Clark Kirby said DC Rivals HyperCoaster will be a world-class ride featuring an array of thrills guests can enjoy as a family and will be themed around the hugely popular DC Universe featuring some of the most epic battles and rivalries between iconic DC Super Heroes and Super-Villains.

"Reaching speeds of up to 115km/h, guests will be taken on an exhilarating journey as they experience 4.3G forces and a series of twists and turns along the 1.4km track, almost double the length of any other ride on the Gold Coast," he said.
