dark ride adventure when they team up with SUPERMAN, BATMAN, WONDER
WOMAN, GREEN LANTERN and THE FLASH after accepting the challenge to
outwit Lex Luthor and The Joker’s plans to destroy the city of
Metropolis. As JUSTICE LEAGUE Reserve Team members, riders travel in
sleek six-passenger custom designed, motion-based vehicles and engage in
a full-sensory battle, complete with 4D effects of fire, cannon blasts,
and explosions all while experiencing hairpin, 360-degree turns and the
world’s first-ever virtual loop on a dark ride.
Riders use interactive laser blasters and attempt to extinguish the 600
virtual and tangible targets featured throughout the attraction,
including a life-like villain animatronic, robotic henchmen,
helicopters, a hologram and an interactive fog screen. The realistic
features take the ride gaming experience to an unprecedented level.
