Fear the Wrath!
Fear the Wrath as you prepare to take on Six Flags Great America’s all new attraction for 2025, Wrath of Rakshasa, the steepest and most inverted dive coaster in the world! As you rise, the air grows thick with anticipation, and whispers of Rakshasa lurking within will send shivers down your spine.

As the world’s most inverted dive coaster, Wrath of Rakshasa sends you into a whirlwind of 5 inversions that will test your limits and leave you breathless. Reach speeds of nearly 67 miles per hour as you race through the demon’s lair, soaring through 3,239 feet of steel track. Feel the adrenaline coursing through your veins as you navigate this sinister design, crafted to both thrill and terrify.
Gather your bravest companions and prepare to confront the demon that awaits. Wrath of Rakshasa promises an unforgettable experience that will test your courage and leave you breathless. Step into the darkness, embrace the fear, and make memories that will leave you screaming for more—your twisted adventure is just a dive away!
