Nintendo Announces Donkey Kong Country Coming to Universal Studios Japan September 28, 2021

Following up on the tremendous success of Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Japan, Nintendo and Universal have confirmed the long-rumored much-anticipated Donkey Kong Country expansion will be coming to the Universal Studios Japan park. As far as the early concept art exposes, this will be an addition of the already-existing Super Nintendo World, and likely will feature an environment based on the SNES classic and a Donkey Kong ride.

No word has been mentioned what this means for the bi-coastal Universal Studios parks in the US. It was expected a Donkey Kong Country expansion would come to Super Nintendo World at the upcoming Epic Universe theme park coming to Orlando, FL. It looks like Japan will get this first. Can’t wait to see it.
