Warner Bros World Abu Dhabiadds two new DC rides.
The park announced that the Kryptonite Collider, a 32‑person circular spinning attraction, will open to visitors on July 26. The second addition, Superman Up and Away, is slated for completion in 2028 and will let guests soar face‑down alongside the Man of Steel on a next‑generation flying roller coaster.
Kryptonite Collider immerses riders in a fictional Lex Luthor experiment. Guests enter as “test subjects” in the Everyman Project, with audio, lighting and digital effects building a story that continues through the ride itself.
Superman Up and Away is described as a next‑generation flying coaster that places riders in a face‑down position, giving the sensation of soaring beside the iconic superhero.
