Skull Island: Reign of Kong is a trackless dark ride located at Universal Islands of Adventure theme park within Universal Orlando Resort. Universal Creative based its design on various films in the King Kong franchise and consulted with Peter Jackson, who directed the 2005 film King Kong, during the initial phase of the project.[2] The ride officially opened to the public on July 13, 2016, which was preceded by a series of soft openings held the previous month.[3]
