Six Flags has unveiled its 2017 lineup of new roller coasters, dark rides and water slides at the amusement park chain's 13 locations.
Four roller coasters, three dark rides, four thrill rides and three water attractions are among the additions.
Here are the highlights:

The fourth-dimension roller coasters coming to three Six Flags parks will feature seats that spin forward and backward as the train navigates a zigzagging track with undulating straightaways and free-fall drops.
For 2017, the 4-D coasters are heading to Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags New England (Massachusetts) and Six Flags Great America (Illinois).
The 4-D Free Spin coaster by Utah-based S&S Worldwide, built on a relatively compact footprint, snakes back and forth on a serpentine track like a demonic pachinko game.
Similar versions of the 4-D coasters have been built at Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey.
