Jurassic World: The Ride is a refurbished version of the Jurassic Park: The Ride at Universal Studios Hollywood themed to Jurassic World. It was opened in summer 2019. Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, and B. D. Wong reprise their roles as Owen Grady, Claire Dearing, and Henry Wu respectively.[1]
Ride[]
Queue and pre-show[]
Guests enter through the Jurassic World gates and into a series of switchbacks. The queue is designed to look like Isla Nublar from the film and is covered with posters and billboards explaining the dinosaurs at the park. Overhead, video monitors display "Jurassic World Network", the island's TV station which shows Dino facts as well as interviews with characters from the movie. As guests approach the loading area, smaller monitors display safety info before guests board their boat, each capable of holding 25 people.
Ride[]
The ride begins by climbing an initial lift hill, and the boats are taken to the Mosasaurus Aquarium Observatory, encountering a Mosasaurus. Guests then go to a lush, tropical area, where they find a mother Stegosaurus and her baby and encounter a Parasaurolophus before entering Predator Cove, where the riders see carnage has ensued after the Indominus rex has broken out of its paddock, along with the Tyrannosaurus rex and some Dilophosaurus. Riders overhear that the ACU (especially Dr. Wu) is being called in to round up the escaped dinosaurs, passing by a damaged Gyrosphere and a pair of Compsognathus fighting over a tourist's hat. Park operations supervisor Claire Dearing comes in over a monitor and tries to comfort the riders, but her feed breaks up before riders traverse another lift hill, where they see the "Indominus" itself spying on them through a hole in the nearby wall. Owen Grady then patches in and tells the riders to remain seated in the boat, before sending the Velociraptor Blue to help them escape.
As the boat nears the top of the lift, a Velociraptor holding a chewed wire lunges at guests through a hole in the ceiling. Following attempts by Dilophosaurus to spit venom (actually water) at riders and a close call with the Indominus, the riders meet up with Blue, who guides them to an exit. However, they are beaten by the Indominus, which attempts to eat the riders. With the timely arrival of the Tyrannosaurus, the ensuing fight between the beasts buys riders time to escape, with the boat going down a drop, splashing all guests with water once it reaches the bottom and ending the ride. The riders exit the ride into the gift shop.
