Across two different previews, we’ve checked out all the rides, and we’ve been sharing our experiences in the park so that you know what to expect when Epic Universe opens to the public on May 22nd, 2025. And if you’re hyped about Super Nintendo World, we’re here to share exactly what it’s like to ride Mine-Cart Madness!
Let’s just say this weekend has been…EPIC.
We finally got a chance to explore Universal Orlando’s new theme park, Epic Universe. We’ve been running all over Super Nintendo World, as well as How To Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk, Celestial Park, and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic. We also got to get our first really good look at Dark Universe, including the INCREDIBLE Monsters Unchained ride. Well, there was something about that ride that REALLY impressed us that we haven’t talked about yet: the lockers.
This is NOT a drill!!! The time we’ve all been waiting for is almost here — Universal’s Epic Universe is opening on May 22nd, 2025 and we are PUMPED.
