2025 - Cetautomatix - (11/27/2026) I had a feeling that the Cetautomatic coaster that opened this summer at Parc Asterix would be pretty great… theming and a fun unique spinning layout. But I realized I had never posted a look at what the experience was like, so check out the great POV video below to see what it is like in action!
    This is definitely on my list of things to do the next time I go back to France!

 
    (8/16/2025) While it is opening a little later than expected, it has been confirmed that Parc Asterix’s new Cetautomatix spinning roller coaster is now set to open to guests on August 18th. The crazy looking coaster is extremely well themed, as one might expect from Parc Asterix, and it did make my list of the Top 25 New Themed Attractions we would see open in 2025.

    (2/2/2025) Parc Asterix will open a fun new spinning roller coaster for the 2025 season called Cetautomatix. This will be a Gerstaluer branded spinning coaster system featuring face-to-face seating, that will run through a themed landscape and structure at different points in the ride, with the vehicles themed like crazy chariots built by the local blacksmith. The project is already well under construction based on photos posted to RCDB.

2027 - New Hotel - (12/6/2025) Compagnie des Alpes confirmed plans to build a new 300-room hotel at Parc Asterix by 2027. CDA currently plan and growth projections for the original Parc Asterix is to invest heavily into that park and grow it to become one of Europe’s top 5 theme parks by 2030.

2028 - Londinium - (11/27/2026) A great preview video clip shows off a look at what we can expect from the new 2028 attraction for Parc Asterix as a pair of coaster cars are shown making controlled spinning motions as they run through a heavily themed Londonium landscape. Based on the video this is either a shuttle coaster, or more likely something with a switch track, as the cars are seen going up a small enclosed spike at one point, spinning around and then falling backwards onto the track layout.
    Note that this is apparently just an example of “concept art” of what to expect and does not reflect the actual final layout or scenery to be used, but still, this is pretty darn cool looking.

    (11/11/2025) Blooloop reports that the new interactive dark ride coming to Parc Asterix in 2028 will indeed be a project from Alterface. The attraction will feature a “competitive scoring system” that will encourage repeat rides, with “visible scores, hidden bonuses, and scenes with multiple levels of discovery.” Follow the link to see all the latest details.
 
    (9/20/2025) Parc Asterix has already set plans in motion for their next big expansion, which will see the comic version of Asterix’s “London” brought to life for the first time. The plans being filed list this as a 2028 project, but there is a lot going on, and sometimes projects as Parc Asterix take a little longer to build than originally anticipated, so this could be something that opens a year later, or perhaps in phases.
    The park’s current Rue de Paris will be leaving to make room for Londinium, though given that there will be at least two differently theme sections of this new land along with more than one new ride, I once again wonder if this will be a multi-phase project. The two distinct additions here will be the “Circus” area that will feature a new interactive dark ride (I’ve seen Alter Face mentioned), kids play area, a pub and from the sound of it, a seasonal walk-through haunted house. It also sound like the existing stunt show arena will be kept, rethemed and integrated into this new land as well.
    The other area is being referred to as “Camden”, which will feature a number of outdoor midway games as well as a major new indoor coaster attraction that is thought to be an Intamin Multi-Dimensional Coaster project. The latest example of an Intamin Multi-Dimension Coaster project would be the “Uncharted” themed coaster that just opened at Spain’s PortAventura in 2023 featuring a number of unique special effects features and track effects. The details posted so far claim this will feature 5 12-passenger independent cars with LSM launch sequences and able to pivot to point the riders at specific scenes along the way, so this does sound very much like the Uncharted style ride system.
