From March 28th through August 10th, the popular Goliath “hypercoaster” at Six Flags Magic Mountain will be transformed into a Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate ride. For the opening weekend festivities, the national Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Caravan Tour will also be at Six Flags Magic Mountain for special event days this Saturday and Sunday.

“With the Six Flags partnership, the game will come to life with one dedicated passenger train of the Goliath coaster custom-skinned to resemble the game’s flagship Gore Magala monster. The Goliath “coaster giant” is a metal monster with a staggering 255 foot drop taken at 85 mph, making this one of the longest and fastest drops in the world. Once riders conquer the thrilling high-speed banked turns, camelback hills, huge spiral curves and “zero gravity” drops of the Gore Magala themed Goliath coaster, they will have a chance to tackle the ferocious Gore Magala in game form as they test out the Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate demo at kiosks inside the Cyber Cafe. Special Monster Hunter merchandise will also be for sale in the park to commemorate this ultimate vertical adventure.”
