Universal Orlando has debuted the highly-anticipated Skull Island: Reign of Kong at its Islands of Adventure attraction.

The plans date back to August 2014, when Attractions Management exclusively revealed plans for the Kong attraction, which marks the oversized ape’s return to Universal for the first time in 14 years.

The experience starts with the guest setting out to explore an exotic island where menacing creatures and the legendary King Kong are said to roam. Guests set out from the campsite of the 8th Wonder Expedition Company, the research team leading the expedition, past ancient ruins, beating drums and temples and past a lost shrine – where there’s proof that the guests are not alone on the island.

Guests board a specially designed expedition vehicle, which operates on a completely trackless ride system to head deeper into the jungle, reaching an enormous temple wall, covered in carvings and iconography.

As the huge wooden doors of the temple open, guests are thrown into a labyrinth of caves where they struggle to escape the attacks of ferocious creatures – and then an “even more enormous, earth-pounding presence” as King Kong enters the scene.

The new attraction is the largest addition to Islands of Adventure since 2010 when Wizarding World of Harry Potter opened. The previous Kong iteration – Kongfrontation – closed in 2002 to make way for Revenge of the Mummy.
