Universal Orlando’s upcoming Epic Universe expansion is moving forward and thanks to @bioreconstruct on Twitter we have a look at the progress.
We know that this area will contain lands like the Super Nintendo World, a new section of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter focusing on “Fantastic Beasts”, Universal’s Monsters area and How To Train Your Dragon themed part.

I can’t wait to see the area several months from now!
Remember Universal has stated that the new park will open in 2025, pushed back from the original 2023 estimate due to the delays from the pandemic.
