 2023 - BATMAN: Gotham City Escape - (9/1/2023) Intamin has posted their own video showcase of the new Batman Gotham City Escape coaster at Parque Warner Madrid. The video features beautiful footage of this incredible new ride, with both on and off ride footage.
(5/20/2023) Coaster Studios has posted a great video from the opening of the new Batman Gotham City Escape roller coaster at Parque Warner Madrid. This includes a look at a special opening show for the media event, some awesome footage of an extensive themed queue and ride pre-show experiences and more. Of course, we’ve already see the POV of the coaster experience itself which looks fantastic, so it is great to see that the park backed it all up with the rest of the attraction to make a complete themed experience.
(5/14/2023) If you haven’t seen the POV from the new Batman: Gotham City Escape coaster opening soon at Parque Warner Madrid, then check it out below. But be sure to watch it all the way to the end to see the surprise finale they have in store. This Intamin multi-launch coaster has a full bag of tricks in store for the riders, but the ending is one I’ve never seen before.
The train enters a dark tunnel at the very end with Joker style “HA! HA! HA!” messages spray painted in the walls and based on the rest of the ride, this looks like the ideal placement for another booster launch. However, just as the train exits the tunnel and the track turns straight up skyward, riders suddenly realize that the track is a DEAD END! Magnetic brakes are quickly applied and the train rolls backwards, back into the Joker themed tunnel where the “HA! HA! HA!” message takes on a new meaning. From here it looks like a switch track will be activated so the train can proceed to the unload station.

Much of the track has been installed for this amazing new roller coaster which loops and soars around the land, pathways and buildings in the Gotham City area of the park. It sure does look like it’s going to be a very intense ride that isn’t to be missed next year.

(9/6/22) The Coaster Kings dropped into Parque Warner Madrid this week and took the time to take some extensive photos of the construction on the park’s newest roller coaster. They describe the ride as appearing to have a multi-launch shuttle segment not unlike Pantheon at Busch Gardens Williamsburg with a beyond vertical spike, but overall the dimensions and features of the coaster appear more in line Universal’s Velocicoaster, just a bit shorter. Make the jump over to see the photos and read the list of elements they think the coaster will have and in what order.
(8/23/22) Construction on the new mystery coaster at Parque Warner Madrid has risen all over the place and looks amazing. You can see a video and some photos below showing off the construction thus far. All we’ve heard so far is that the coaster is expected to have some kind of Batman related theme, though the park already has Batman: Arkham Asylum (B&M Inverted) so I’m not sure exactly how this will play out.
(7/9/22) More pictures of the coaster construction going on at Parque Warner Madrid can be found this week at TheCoasterKings website. Things are going to start moving fast here, and as you can see in the photos they’re assembling a lot of track pieces on the ground in preparation to mount them to the supports.

The video goes over the history of what has taken place in the park so far with demolition and construction footage.
(1/1/22) Looks like some deep digging has now started at Parque Warner Madrid for their new 2023 coaster project. Based on my best guest, looks like this is in a backstage area behind the Scooby-Doo dark ride, that is on the opposite side of the pathway from the closed Batman simulator ride where the majority of the work has been taking place until now. So the size of this new attraction may be larger than anticipated, unless this is simply ground work to upgrade backstage utilities or something. Meanwhile other nearby sites are undergoing some extensive demolition as well as you can see in the next tweet.
(12/23/21) A new Tweet shows off the location of the various supposed spotted on site at Parque Warner Madrid for the park’s rumored new coaster. Check it out below.

(12/1/21) According to a post on Twitter, demolition has started at Paque Warner Madrid on the park’s old “simulator building”. There is a rumor claiming that the park may build some new coaster from Intamin, intended to open in 2023, that will take over the former Batman: Knight Flight simulator building space and nearby area. Can anyone else confirm?
