Riders will wear Samsung Gear VR headsets that see them transformed into co-pilots of a fighter jet flying through a futuristic city. They will engage in a battle to protect the planet against alien invaders.

High-definition imagery and storytelling are synced perfectly with a unique 3,400 feet steel track configuration that allows guests to experience realistic fighter pilot sensations like a real fighter pilot.

The ride will debut to the general public on March 26. For more information visit www.sixflags.com.
