A newly approved patent hints at a groundbreaking water ride potentially adding to Universal’s Epic Universe. Unlike traditional attractions, this proposed ride would utilize fluid propulsion instead of mechanical tracks or chains to move vehicles through its course. This innovative system eliminates common safety concerns associated with loading and unloading mechanisms found in other water rides. The design features a trough containing fluid that interacts with adjustable surfaces on the ride vehicle itself for precise control. While the patent does not specify exact details, fans speculate it could be connected to Dark Universe or even feature Creature of the Black Lagoon. Universal has received clearance for this concept, though no official announcement confirms its development or location. The possibility of a combined water and land-based attraction adds further excitement to ongoing theme park rumors.
