After being delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we now know Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will be opening at EPCOT on Memorial Day weekend.

This will be Disney’s first reverse-launch coaster. It will also feature a new Walt Disney Imagineering innovation: a storytelling coaster that rotates 360 degrees.

The story will start in the Galaxarium, where guests are invited to learn more about Xandar. The Guardians of the Galaxy interrupt and adventures ensue.

The ride replaces Universe of Energy, which closed in 2017. Test footage of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind was released in November 2020 and we saw ride vehicles being transported to EPCOT in January 2021.

Are you excited to finally ride Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind? Let us know in the comments.
