Six Flags Magic Mountain has announced its newest ride, “Justice League: Battle for Metropolis.”

Play. Triumph. The next generation of the award-winning Six Flags ride will now feature a spectacular new finale, new game targets and the introduction of one of DC’s hottest Super-Villains, Harley Quinn.
