Wrath of Medusa Unleashed: Trailblazing, Seven-Looping
Coaster Makes Legendary Return
The myth and legend of the snake-haired Gorgon Medusa begins a new chapter. Since Six Flags announced her return in March, thrill seekers worldwide have rallied behind Medusa’s homecoming to Frontier Adventures. Originally unveiled as Medusa in 1999, the world’s first floorless, top-rail roller coaster was re-branded to BIZARRO 10 years later. In 2022, this epic scream machine returns to her original form, but showcases a new color palette, logo, Gold Rush-era backstory and theming.
Discover the Lost Town of Medusa
Six Flags introduces riders to the legend of “The Lost Town of Medusa.” Depicted throughout the ride queue and on the park’s YouTube channel, the tale surrounds Greek immigrant brothers who traveled to California during the Gold Rush in 1874 — exactly 100 years before Six Flags Great Adventure opened its gates. Their harrowing quest for riches led them to Death Valley and an unforgiving town of outlaws named Exile Canyon. Earth tremors, mineshaft collapses, a rattlesnake infestation and underground coal fire plagued the outpost and its dwellers. The brothers were convinced that Exile Canyon was cursed by an evil sentinel holding sway over the settlement. Their whispers took hold and earned the town the nickname “Medusa” — the Greek word for “guardian.” The town met an unfortunate end as it was wiped off the map in a ferocious flash flood. While the brothers were never seen again, the snakes remained as a solemn reminder of the legend that gripped this doomed outpost.
Slither with Medusa through Exile Canyon
Explorers begin their adventure in the rugged Old West. Guests climb aboard open-air, pedestal-like seats sitting four across. Riders’ feet dangle above the track as they slither along a twisted mass of green steel woven through Exile Canyon.
Medusa takes riders on a pulse-quickening climb up a 146-foot lift hill (more than 14 stories). The inaugural plunge — a 13-story drop at a speed of 61 mph — symbolically sends riders back in time through a ring of mist. Guests rocket through a massive, 114-foot vertical loop, followed by a gut-wrenching 96-foot dive loop as flame bursts from the town’s coal fire explosion ignite around them.
Slithering into a dramatic heart line camelback (or zero-gravity roll) then into a cobra roll (two inversions) a frightening 78 feet above the ground, the churning, coiling adventure continues with a nearly 90-degree, high-speed helix (or horizontal loop). Riders experience negative Gs as they fly over a speed hill and end their voyage with two interlocking corkscrews which coil around a massive mining auger. Medusa’s wrath consumes riders for a relentless three minutes and 15 seconds.
Medusa operates daily while her transformation nears completion. This fall during Fright Fest, the legend will continue as the restless spirits of the Batos brothers haunt Frontier Adventures in a western showdown against Medusa.
Six Flags Summer Vibes Festival and Medusa are included with park admission. For more information on Six Flags Great Adventure, Wild Safari and Hurricane Harbor, visit www.sixflags.com/greatadventure

Cartel Tycoon, the survival business simulator from developer Moon Moose and publisher tinyBuild, smuggles a host of new content out of Early Access and into 1.0 on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG on Tuesday, July 26, 2022. Drug lords can expand their empire to PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One in 2023.
Rise up from the slums and become an unstoppable kingpin, ruling profitable territories in a fictional ‘80s narco trade-inspired country. Build an ever-expanding supply chain of labs, workshops, farms, research centers, and more while dealing with rival cartels, rogue lieutenants, state authorities, and public perception.
Cartel Tycoon’s full release offers a deeper, more strategic experience than in Early Access to ensure a more efficient operation alongside a new heroine commodity to trade on the undergound market. Find new ways to flip profits on opium and other high-demand products while taking advantage of the completely reworked Enemy Gangs, now allowing for less violent ways to trade, conduct special missions, rent buildings, and attain enemy territories while avoiding… hostile takeovers.
New systems including Prison presents kingpins with a new alternative way to deal with unruly lieutenants, instead of getting their hands dirty. Natives give drug lords legal inventory to sell for higher profits while Guerrilla grunts packed with firepower stock a smuggling point to defend operations. Unlock new buildings by completing quests including a Military Base providing a centralized way to fortify production, and an Airport to serve as a massive smuggling point for an ever-growing empire.
Recruit shady lieutenants through story-driven quests, meet new characters and carefully make choices to impact both narrative and gameplay. As rival cartels seek to claim territory, watch out for the local federales and power-hungry lieutenants. Master the unforgiving life of a kingpin to brave Survival Mode’s brutal campaign, or choose your own adventure with the all-new Sandbox Mode’s endless customization.
“Strategy and simulation games so often give us punishing benchmarks to hit and force our decisions toward certain optimizations,” said Cartel Tycoon’s Creative Director Leonid Gorbachov. “On the other hand, Cartel Tycoon embraces the power fantasy of being a kingpin calling all the shots. Test your mettle against Survival Mode, or enjoy a fruitful life of luxury with the new Sandbox Mode. The choice is yours—you’re the boss!”
Cartel Tycoon will be available for PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG for USD $24.99 / €20.99 on Tuesday, July 26, 2022. It will support English, Russian, French, Italian, German, Spanish (Spain), Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, and Turkish languages.
For more information, visit the official Cartel Tycoon website, follow the game on Twitter and Instagram, like its official Facebook page, subscribe to its YouTube channel, and join the cartel ranks on Discord.
