Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles A World of Warcraft theme park has been built in China and Blizzard has absolutely nothing to do with it. The park is now open and photographs of it are circulating the Internet. The park features absolutely gigantic Warcraft statues, themed rides, and a cafe in a castle perched at the top of a massive stone staircase. It's in Changzhou, China, it's called Joyland, and Forbes reports that it cost $48 million to build. And it is entirely, audaciously illegal, as an international copyright violation. A Reddit user visited the park and explains that rides have a "splendor index" and a "happiness index", which evidently rate how much fun you can expect to have in some obscure way. It has a flying rollercoaster called Sky Scrapper. "Sky Scrapper had the highest g force I have experienced on a roller coaster," she says. "You lie on your front (like you are flying) and it has a loop which felt pretty crazy. "A lot of the rides used 4-D and special effects... The water log ride (called ‘splash of monster blood’) was pretty good too." It cost around $30 to get in. We'll see how long Joyland stays open.
