by Universal Studios Japan has updated its opening schedule for the delayed Donkey Kong Country expansion on Super Nintendo World.
Donkey Kong Country Opening Schedule
Donkey Kong Country was previously scheduled to open in the spring of 2024. They later stated that the expansion had been delayed and would open in the second half of 2024. Media reports have since referred to it as “late 2024.”
During the broadcast of “Call Teacher Tanaka” on Fuji TV on October 28, Universal announced that the Super Nintendo World expansion would open “in late 2024.” This suggests the area could open in December, perhaps just in time for Christmas and New Year.
Donkey Kong Country is an expansion to Super Nintendo World, opening in March 2021. The land will feature the Donkey Kong: Mine-Cart Madness roller coaster. The roller coaster was first seen testing last December. Around the same time, we got our first look at power-up groups Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong, as well as merchandise.
Epic Universe, Universal Orlando Resort’s third theme park scheduled to open in May 2025, will open with Super Nintendo World including Donkey Kong Country and Mine-Cart Madness. Check out our latest Epic Universe build update.
