Six Flags Over Texas has announced that in addition to Aquaman: Power Wave it will open a second new attraction in 2022. The park will be reopening one of their classic dark rides after being totally renovated to become Pirates of Speelunker Cave. Woohoo for more dark rides!

Pirates of Speelunker Cave will take over what was formerly Yosemite Sam and the Gold River Adventure, which hasn't operated recently. The new attraction hearkens back to the attractions original theme, when it was called The Cave. It operated from 1964 until until 1991 after which it became the Yosemite Sam incarnation. During the new ride visitors will find a "state-of-the-art attraction that will place guests squarely in the middle of a pirate treasure hunt thwarted by resident Speelunkers."

The attraction will feature 26 boats, state of the art animatronics and wide-projection technology that will immerse riders in the physical and digital sets spread among 17 scenes. The ride will also receive a new entry plaza that will feature coastal theming and an open view of the boats' initial descent into the cave.

“As the world’s first regional theme park, Six Flags Over Texas has built a solid reputation of providing innovative thrills and lifelong memories for generations of families,” said Six Flags Over Texas Park President Ron McKenzie. “What better way to celebrate our park’s 60^th anniversary than by announcing a brand-new attraction that pays homage to our past and launches us into the future,” added McKenzie.
