Is Super Nintendo World Coming to the New UK Universal Park

Universal Studios has announced plans for a new theme park in the UK, expected to open in 2031, following a deal facilitated by Prime Minister Keir Starmer. While the specific themed areas remain unconfirmed, there is speculation about the potential inclusion of Super Nintendo World, similar to its counterparts in Japan and the United States. The concept art showcases a vibrant entrance and various attractions, igniting fan speculation about franchises like Jurassic Park, Minions, and Harry Potter being featured. Super Nintendo World’s existing expansions focus on beloved Nintendo characters and experiences, with many eager to see how these will translate in the UK. This new park aims to compete with established attractions like Alton Towers and Legoland Windsor.

While there’s no official confirmation from Nintendo, the potential for Super Nintendo World existing at the new Universal UK park is high given the success of similar attractions globally. The overall project promises to showcase a blend of popular American and British franchises, and fans remain hopeful for Nintendo’s involvement.

Super Nintendo World is an immersive theme park area celebrating Nintendo's iconic franchises, including areas dedicated to Mario and Donkey Kong. Openings in Japan's Universal Studios and at Universal Studios Hollywood have drawn massive interest, with attractions like the Mine-Cart Madness coaster. Anticipation is similarly high for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, which will feature game attractions like Mario Kart World, aligning with the theme park’s focus on Nintendo franchises.
