Disney has just officially announced that Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will open on Friday, May 27, 2022. Registration is now also open for preview events for the ride.
Not only that, but it will also feature the first-ever backward launch into space on special ride vehicles which allow for side to side and 360-degree movement.
Cosmic Rewind also features the cast of the MCU’s Guardians of the Galaxy film, so you’ll be witness to all sorts of galactic mischief throughout the ride.
What makes the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind so different from traditional roller coasters is the fact that it heavily emphasizes the element of storytelling.
Epcot has never had a roller coaster in its almost 40-year history, so this is a very drastic change, breaking away from the park’s original vision from the 1980s.
