Perhaps most exciting for thrill junkies is the announcement that this attraction will feature a reverse launch, which is a first for a Disney coaster.

No opening target was shared at the recent Parks and Resorts panel, but rumors suggest that this attraction is still aiming for a 2021 opening date.
