EPCOT Why no New Updates to EPCOT?

[NickPalermo824]

Recently disney has started there 10 years of updates and changes like Piston Peak replacing the Rivers of America and Monstropolius replacing Grand Ave (formerly Muppets Courtyard). Weirdly enough EPCOT has not received any piece of news for ANY updates which is weird for numerous of reasons like where will that 8 Billion dollar investment going to go. It can't just go to the other three theme parks, can it?



Weirdly enough though, Spaceship Earth is closing for its first Multi-Month Refurbishment since 2007/2008. This can't just be a general maintenance reference as Under the Sea - Journey of the Little Mermaid has went down a quick reference for general maintenance. From what I have been heard from both online and even some people very close to Disney Parks this referbisment COULD include:

• OLED Screen replacing the old screens on the Ride Vehicles
• Enhanced Effects
• Lightning Upgrades
• Other Minor Updates
• General Maintenance

According to cast members will be an eight week refurbishment and nothing major will happen, but people close to me are saying something will happen during the refurbishment process. We shall find out soon.

It is very unlikely that this is the refurbishment that will bring us Version 5. I would just expect general maintenance also I thought the screens were going too. Then again that was the plan for the thankfully unrealized Chapek plans that were killed by Covid.

I was not expecting a version five but was expecting updates but according to cast members that’s not gonna happen
