Something LARGE Is Coming! Kings Island 2026 New Coaster?

Kings Island is starting prep work for their NEXT major roller coaster, and this new ride could become the park's BEST one when it opens! 2026 will be the year that Kings Island debuts their newest roller coaster and I share my thoughts with you about the new roller coasters theme, layout and coaster type. I feel like this project could be special...

Kings Island already offers a fantastic roller coaster collection, and a ride of this magnitude would only make the park's lineup - that much better!

So what type of roller coaster do you think Kings Island will open in 2026?

I give it a 99% chance that this channel will change names 4 more times before kings islands next major coaster opens....

When I was at Kings Island for Halloween Haunt, there was a casket that was open with a red light for son of beast. it was the only casket that was like that in the graveyard. By the old station for son of beast there was a crate with old son of beast parts and a claw mark that said "Deliver to outpost 5" where The Beast is located. Something major is definitely going to happen.

[PatrickRyan]

I love predictions & comments. Its so much fun to hear what everyone would like to see happen.

[jackcreel]

A ground up RMC of Son Of Beast would be

[CaseFamilyVlogs]

Agree 100 percent man! Cant wait to see what they have ready for us up here.

[scotthenthorn]

2026 has to be the year. I feel like COVID and then the merger pushed Kings Island plans back a couple years. Siren’s Curse going to Cedar Point tells me that they’ve been planning Kings Island’s next coaster for awhile now.

[Onion]

Please please a Mack Stryker coaster! It would be a perfect fit for KI. It would be that top 10 worthy standout elite coaster that people travel across the country to ride. It even has a rather low height requirement too

[jerryrocketandthegogogirls]

If it’s not Beast III RMC im gonna explode. Dont give us some wing coaster or another family coaster. Go big, KI deserves a top 10 elite coaster for once.

[tractorgt]

Thanks Brandon! As ki is our home park, I 100% agree that a mack stryker coaster is their best bet. It's intricate and would fill that plot nicely. Fingers crossed.

[gizzycav]

I would love to see King’s Island get a Mack Stryker or a Xtreme Spinner. They deserve something that truly stands out, and having something on par with Voltron or Ride to Happiness would do just that.

[XxjmanxX]

I've herd rumblings from employees about a new coaster and figured it would come either mid way next year or in 2026 and I hope it's BIG

[eddieholt]

I am confident TT2 will be reliable after it opens in 2025. I love launch coasters. The faster the better.

[shaneh]

Bout time. Kings island needs some love

[Frankenberry]

I think you are right about a new coaster in 26. I think it's gonna be son of beast themed in some way because of the teasers around haunt this year. I was there two weeks ago and took a look through the fence at the vortex plot. There are DEFINITELY survey markers in the plot. You know how it's like a bowl. Well right down in the bottom of that bowl, there's a bunch of survey markers that I could clearly see .. and I'm sure there were lots more amid the grass that I couldn't see. The survey tags were either orange or pink... It was hard to tell from that distance from the fence.

[ItsSiebay]

Whatever it is has to be inversion based to replace Vortex. I absolutely do think that Sirens Curse should’ve went to KI instead of CP though.

[pipepicasso]

The Vortex name needs to stay with the plot of land. Steel Vortex, Vortex Revenge, or whatever. And, the next coaster has to be a record breaker of some kind. KI has a tradition of record breaking and the last was Banshee.
One thing that worries me is, they might not try to overshadow their flagship park in CP. KI seems to have the “Play it safe” rides. Nothing too extreme thrill. For a park with such a diverse selection of coasters, they still have a bunch of options for a new coaster. A top 5 ride will make it THE premier park in the chain. I don’t think they want that.

[Jomama]

I’ve been thinking this for months. A Mack Stryker would be perfect for ki. Imagining a large scale ride with a bunch of twisted track seems cool. But imagine Voltron’s sitting where vortex was. A huge building with theming and the ride weaving in and out of the building. Just think about that view walking down coney mall. This is Kings Islands chance to remind everybody of who is really the king of cedar fair(I’ll never call it six flags) haha

[DailyDoseofCoasters]

Thank you for your time and effort with these videos!

[Hawknelsonfan]

Your thumbnail made me think that Kings Island was already teasing!!!

[ItsAllGood_]

Good predictions...I would also take a Pantheon clone, or a Time Traveler clone, or a ground up RMC like ArieForceOne. I think it will definitely be something with inversions. KI currently only has three coasters with inversions (Banshee, Flight of Fear, Invertigo) and rumor has it Invertigo might go.
