Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

[The Grand Inquisitor]

The concept drawing with the viking in the bottom left hand corner is giving me some Norway vibes.

Yeah! The land looks incredible. There was some of the Monsters land concept art floating around but it was taken down. It was called the Dark Universe.

Is that particular Twitter handle reputable? The concept art looks great, but I could see anyone drawing it up.

It is it was on a website for different theme park concept art but it was taken down. Probably because Universal did not allow them to show it off.

Is there construction?

So, is it "confirmed" (I realize nothing is official) that the Nintendo land will go into Epic Universe instead of Studios? Is EU going to be built as originally planned or anything changed/been dropped?

Moving Super Nintendo World would cost more and push it back further.

Nintendo is already underway for Epic Universe. It is far enough along where that will not change and is the "anchor" property for that park.

It will be done in a shorter time span than Tron's announcement to opening.

They are laying drainage pipes and electrical infrastructure, so yes construction is happening.

An onsite concrete plant is being stood up right now.

We have a sock puppet that doesn’t understand how things work.

Does this count as "verticle construction"?

 

[OG Runner]

That is the beginning of the centerpiece hotel!

The first queue goes vertical!

Seriously, it looks like a "Smoker's Section" for trailer offices.
