Jurassic World is an upcoming attraction that will be themed to the Jurassic World franchise at Universal Studios Hollywood. The original Jurassic Park: The Ride, which opened on June 21, 1996 based on the 1993 film Jurassic Park, is currently undergoing through a 9-month major refurbishment starting on September 3, 2018.
Twenty-two years later—and after sending millions of guests back to the Jurassic era for menacing face-to-face encounters with such predators as Stegosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Dilophosaurus, Velociraptors and the Tyrannosaurus rex — "Jurassic Park—The Ride" will become extinct in preparation for a new, next-generation experience that's even more immersive and technologically advanced. The new ride will pay homage to Jurassic Park and will reimagine this landmark film franchise for theme park guests.[2]
Including the fact would involve all-new audio-animatronics and special effects, which most fans and critics noted that the original ride was in need of serious repair due to the breakdown of animatronics and practical effects. Not only that, the press release also stated that the Jurassic Cafe restaurant and Jurassic Outfitters retail store near the original attraction would also close and will reopen along with the new Jurassic World-themed attraction in 2019.[2]
