The countdown to Opening Day at Raging Waters LA has less time to go than ever before as Raging Waters readies for its biggest season ever in 2022, featuring the NEW Bombs Away water slides and more great fun.
After a successful bounce-back summer in 2021, Raging Waters LA is counting the minutes until May 21, 2022, one of the earliest Opening Days in park history. In addition to extra days, guests will be able to step up to the park’s new dual-drop thriller, Bombs Away. Sliders will step into enclosed capsules when, without notice, the floor beneath their feet abruptly vanishes and drops them down into two unique experiences – a straight-speed six-story, 70 degree AquaDrop where sliders will reach speeds of up to 30 feet per second, or a twisting, turning loop through a closed-tube 325-foot-long fly-by at similarly supersonic speeds.
“We know our guests have been waiting to blast off in Bombs Away since it was first announced in 2019,” says General Manager Roland Reyes. The slides’ debut was delayed by the covid-19 pandemic. “These drops are over the top, and we are so excited for sliders to step in and see the Bombs Away experience was worth the wait.”
Thrilling rides fresh and familiar are just the start of the fun on tap for 2022. Raging Waters Los Angeles will add a new open-air retail location at the park’s main gate so guests can make sure to stock up on sunscreen, swim trunks and other essentials before soaking up all the extra fun the expanded season will offer. The Raging Waters team is also hard at work in the kitchen developing new food items to satisfy stomachs in between splashes on Bombs Away and other favorites like Aqua Rocket, Kid’s Kingdom and the million-gallon Wave Cove pool.
While the fun may be a few months away, now is the perfect time to make plans by purchasing a Season Pass during Raging Waters’ upcoming Black Friday sales. Starting a week early on Friday, November 19, holiday shoppers can skip the shipping and supply chain concerns with a Season Pass, with budget-friendly tiers from no-frills, all fun to a Platinum Pass that includes access to Castle Park, including their 2021 holiday event, Duke’s Very Merry Village, opening November 26!
Season Passes are up to 20 percent off their normal price during the limited time sale, and are available for purchase on six-month payment plans. Single-day tickets are available as a smaller stocking stuffer.
“These limited time Black Friday specials offer the gift of fun that will create special memories and won’t collect dust in a closet,” says Regional Marketing Manager Jessica Adams. “Getting a Raging Waters Season Pass now allows smart shoppers to save big and enjoy our expanded season, the new Bombs Away attraction, and the special experiences visitors look forward to every year.”

Frogwares has announced the release times for Sherlock Holmes Chapter One along with a launch trailer. Sherlock Holmes Chapter One is a third-person, open-world, story-driven detective thriller. The story is a creative re-imagining of Sherlock’s first steps on his journey to becoming the famed, flawed and destructive genius the world has come to know. Set on the Mediterranean island of Cordona, this is where Sherlock spent his childhood. He now returns as a young adult to find the true answers to his mother’s mysterious death all those years ago that orphaned him and got him sent to London. The game is built around a system of “no hand holding” detective work, meaning players will need to use all the tools at their disposal to piece together the clues and solve the various mysteries that the island is hiding.
RELEASE TIMES
The game is set to go live globally on PC, PS5, and Xbox X / S on Tuesday, November 16th at 0:00 am BST. This means that for players in regions such as North and South America, the game will be available on Monday, November 15th.
Upon its initial release in 1994, “MACROSS PLUS” became a cult sensation paving the way for some of anime’s greatest hits and the creators behind them. The ground-breaking, 4-episode Original Video Animation (OVA) struck a chord with audiences worldwide with its blazingly fast dogfighting in detail that had never been seen in anime before. On December 14, “MACROSS” finally comes to U.S. cinemas with, “MACROSS PLUS MOVIE EDITION,” which adds all-new animated scenes never seen in the OVA, streamlines the storyline, and creates a more focused and action-packed viewing experience. In addition to the feature, attendees will view an exclusive special interview with creator/chief director Shoji Kawamori (“Macross,” “Aquarion,” “Escaflowne”).
Tickets for “MACROSS PLUS MOVIE EDITION” can be purchased at www.FathomEvents.com or participating theater box offices. For a complete list of theater locations, visit the Fathom Events website (theater locations are subject to change).
Combining the intricate designs of Shoji Kawamori, character direction from Shinichiro Watanabe (“Cowboy Bebop”), and the musical stylings of renown composer Yoko Kanno (“Cowboy Bebop,” “Ghost in The Shell: SAC”), “MACROSS PLUS MOVIE EDITION” takes place in the year 2040 A.D., three decades after the glassing of Earth in what has since become known as Space War One. On the colonial planet of Eden, U.N. SPACY is testing transformable variable fighters to counter further alien attacks. Two prototype aircraft piloted by former childhood friends, loose cannon Isamu and the Zentradi mixed alien race Guld, go head-to-head in aerial and robot combat superiority over a lucrative military contract, and the affections of mutual love interest Myung.
“We’re excited to partner with BIGWEST to finally bring ‘MACROSS PLUS MOVIE EDITION’ to anime fans nationwide,” said Daren Miller, Fathom Events VP, Programming, Strategy & Business Affairs. “For everyone that thinks ‘Top Gun’ is exciting but would be better with Maverick and Iceman piloting robots, this one is for you.”

Today marks the launch of the latest expansion Fate of Gundabad for Lord of the Rings Online, the iconic MMO from Standing Stone Games. The expansion features 10 new levels and the ability to battle as a Brawler, the first class since the release of Beorning in 2014.
The Brawler is a melee class inspired by the tale of Helm Hammerhand, who fought bare-handed at one of the greatest sieges of Helm’s Deep and was known for his ferocity in battle. Brawlers forgo weapons in favor of Battle-gauntlets and heavy armor, hurling themselves into battle to the benefit of friend and devastation of foe. The main focus for Brawlers is damage, off-tanking, and support. Any race in Middle-earth can be a Brawler, except for Beornings, which are their own race and class combination.
Key Brawler features include:
Mettle – The currency Brawlers use to power attacks and other skills. Mettle is built during combat and spent when players use their Brawler’s most powerful abilities. All Brawlers have a passive ability called “Combat Flow”, which increases the damage done by players’ skills for each point of Mettle they have.
Battle Gauntlets – Instead of the traditional weapons of combat, Brawlers wield Battle Gauntlets and defeat enemies with punches, slams, kicks, thrown items, and more. Only Brawlers can wear Battle Gauntlets in combat, and these items will appear throughout the game world as players level. Additionally, Brawlers can acquire Gauntlets throughout the game world as you level. Gauntlets are considered two-handed weapons. While engaged in Mounted Combat, Brawlers put their throwing skills to good use.
Brawler Trait Trees – Brawlers have two Trait trees in which to specialize, along with a third general tree to provide additional flexibility and benefits.
The Fulcrum (blue): The Fulcrum focuses on defense and debuffs and offers ways to increase players’ Vitality, lower their enemies’ attack speed, buff their Critical Rating, and more. Skill names include: Brash Invitation (ranged taunt), Bracing Guard (incoming healing buff), Hold the Line (area of effect personal buff) and Gut Punch (damage debuff).
The Maelstrom (red): The Maelstrom focuses on the chaos of battle to increase damage dealt and more. This offense-focused Trait tree increases players’ Critical Chance, Setup Skill Damage, Might and acquisition of Mettle. Skill names include: Revel in Victory (gain Mettle), Joy of Battle (increased damage), Fist of the Valar (bonus damage) and Battle Fury (duration-based damage buff).
The Fundament (yellow): The Fundament is not a Trait tree that can be specialized into, but rather, this tree offers benefits that complement both The Fulcrum and The Maelstrom. Spending points into The Fundament offers benefits such as increased Mettle generation, enemy debuffs, and hitting more targets with players’ area of effect skills. Skill names include: Battle-Wise (Mettle), Strike as One! (damage boost to Fellowship), Lasting Weakness (Vulnerability) and Trail Food (bonus from food).
Fate of Gundabad is available in The Ultimate Fan Bundle for $129.99, Collector’s Edition for $79.99 and Standard edition for $39.99. For more information on the expansion, visit www.lotro.com/gundabad.
