Opening in 2024 at Universal Japan and 2025 at Universal Orlando, this new attraction will not only feature a unique ride system, but it's also rumored to include detailed show scenes and animatronics. Here is everything we think we know about the Donkey Kong roller coaster.

Who's excited for DONKEY KONG!
MEEE!!
If the ride is really going to be like that! I will be there day one! Omg what in the world! This sounds way better that Mario! I love Mario!
Boom Coaster 🎉
im excited but im worried this will have a pretty low rider capacity/rate as its a single car at a time
I'm your biggest fan I just so happy you reply to me 2 times
What did we do to deserve this!?! 🤩
Universal is crushing it right now. Can't wait for this entire park but I love that they're pushing the boundaries on new tech in their parks.
Crushing it?... I would disagree. Mario kart was meh, secret life of pets meh so no
@@Hello-be7ob theming is great though
Went to Universal + Islands of Adventure in February with my family, we spent two days hitting every single ride in both parks, and by the end we can ALL say that we had more fun there than at Disney. Hell, Universal is beating Disney at their own game, and if they aren't careful, they may even surpass them soon
@@Hello-be7ob The ride may be meh but the theming looked incredible. It’s not as bad as fast and furious but it looks decent
Universal is the best when it comes to Orlando’s coasters imo so I have no doubt this is gonna be phenomenal! So excited for Nintendo and Epic Universe!!
This is what I am MOST excited for out of EVERYTHING coming to Orlando in the next 3 years!!!
Yes! I'm excited for all of Epic but this ride is so creative. I can't wait for it especially.
My kids will be in their glory. Mario and Donkey Kong are the only games they play. I have tears in my eyes right now... not for me but for them.
I think the mouse is greatly underestimating just how nuts people are for Nintendo regardless of international demographics.
Disney has been really shooting themselves in the foot lately with how much they're changing the guest experience at the parks. By the time Epic Universe opens I think it's gonna be top late for them to recover. Universal is blowing them out of the water and I say this as a massive Disney fan.
I was actually surprised how much by nephews (4 and 5) knew about Mario, Yoshi, Peach etc, I think a lot of people underestimate Nintendo, I mean they shouldn't, look at the sales of the Switch.
This is more exciting than anything that was announced at D23
This makes D23 look like an absolute train wreck. I mean, it was anyway, but still
What about the Figment meet and greet? That’s just as exciting as this. Also won’t Tron open in 2035?
😂
The Nintendo section of the park is what I’m most interested in out of all of it. Hoping Dixie Kong and King K. Rool get some representation too.
Yea I am a bit bummed they are going with the newer Donkey Kong game aesthetics. Id love to see a big King K Rool animatronic, croc enemies were the best!
@@SwetyBoi Ellie the Elephant being there could be an indication that there will at least be some stuff from the earlier games
@@elpaka7654 Oh for sure and Rambi the Rhino is there too! We have to assume some of the originals will be there but it seems to be heavily themed around DK Tropical Freeze and DK Country Returns
@@elpaka7654 I think this is supposed to be the generic elephant from DKCR.
What about funky kong 😢
This is an impressive track layout with most elements from the game. This will be what the Mario Kart could have been, faithful to the game, sense of speed and thrill as well as use of physical props.
Mario Kart ride is just too slow but other than that it looked amazing to with the physical sets and animatronics and with the cool virtual reality headseat. It still remained faithful to the game. Would've just been better if it also had some rollercoaster track in it as well that way you can go fast and feel the speed.
I truly think Super Nintendo land is going to be a HUGE attractor to people similar to HP land was/is. If/when they start incorporating Pokemon it is just going to grow that desire even more and Universal maybe the destination of choice for even more people.
Yeah that was a BIIIIIGbrain move by Universal Studios to partner with Nintendo like that. Having Harry Potter, Jurassic Park and now Nintendo too... I know the mouse is sweating a little
@@madduxnagel6935 I mean they just increased prices, so can't be sweating to bad.
But now that they also have a contract with Pokemon.. that is just another huge layer. They are definitely trying to appeal to larger audience than in the past and actually compete with Disney in its own space.
@@Bynbrooke Well yes I'm sure they're not really haha, Universal is always going to be fiending to get a fraction of what Disney gets from their parks. But I feel like now with these Nintendo additions (like Pokémon, as you mentioned, the highest grossing media franchise of all time), Universal might actually have a chance at making Disney at least consider some changes
Donkey Kong is getting so much attention in Epic Universe which is good to see hoping this confirms we are getting a new DK game on Switch would be great marketing for Nintendo.
in the words of donkey kong ohhhhhhh Banana!!!!!!
A Donkey Kong mine cart ride with the false track technology was actually the exact same idea I had for a DK ride back when Super Nintendo World was first announced in 2015. I really wish I posted a comment of my idea back then because then I would’ve looked like a prophet lol.
Anyone else excited for all of the Banana themed foods we might be getting? Also typing that I've got to wonder if there will be any Minions hidden in the land trying to make off with DK's bananas...
Or maybe some Pikmin like in the Mario area
If this means jumping on, rolling into, or beating up minions to get the bananas back, I'm all for it. Otherwise, I hope we won't see them at all.
Gosh I hope not. Keep those disgusting creatures away from my nintendo world
the idea of having other carts coming right up to you and almost colliding only to then narrowly avoid it is an awesome idea. both the ride and area seem like they were really made with love.
Out of all the rides are coming to epic universe the donkey Kong coaster is the most I'm excited for guys and what's really cool about it is that it's going to be like Big thunder mountain and test track got together and they had a baby and this is the baby! 😊 I'm also glad epic universe will have all the 3 super Nintendo world rides guys!😊
3:48 I hope the Cranky Kong animatronic is an interactive one like Donkey from Shrek’s Swamp Meet, especially since Cranky is such a wise-cracker in the original games. Also King K. Rool should be a meet-able character in the parks.
Donkey is a puppet with a human controller and this one will just be an animatronic… but if the voice was a live person wise-cracking with guests in line it would be amazing!
Donkey would probably go on strike. He is a bit of a diva.
Cranky:"Back in my day we used to only have ferris wheels and log flumes covered in lead-based paint and were happy about it!"
@@ThemeParkStop So would it be like Roz in the Monster's Inc ride in California Adventure?
Cranky Kong will be yelling where's the Golden banana at are people when they're walking by the the theme park😂
Man, I wish King K Rool was in this land. :(
This “jumping the tracks” ride system is actually GENUIS. It’s gonna be such an awesome coaster, this is the most I’ve been hyped for a ride in a long time!
The Nintendo stuff looks ridiculously fun. Big, bright, colorful.
I’m imagining an immersive hotel experience for Zelda on par with the Star Wars hotel would be amazing.
We're theme park fans. We know the trick behind this jumping coaster. But can you imagine the thrill of the casual guest who has no idea what they're in for?
Thanks For The Updates Alicia!
These Nintendo lands are literally bottling the spirit of my childhood and turning it into a reality. All they are missing is a Zelda (Ocarina of Time) land, and a Metroid land for my childhood to be complete.
Also, I better be able to purchase an official Donkey Kong tie after coming off this ride.
Please tell me they will have banana bread, frozen chocolate covered banana and more bananas!
An animatronic bird?
I'm sold
Epic Universe sounds so amazing. Disney is definitely going to start sweating after it opens. Adding tiny Coco, Encanto and Villains sections to magic kingdom is not enough to draw people away from how epic Epic universe is going to be.
And those weren't even promises, just a "we're thinking about doing this"
Girl you are the fucking Washington post of theme park journalism keep it up
This coaster alone is the reason I am hyped for Epic. Donkey Kong Country was my favorite game as a kid, and to have it in real life.... just.... YES
This looks so sick. If its anything like these rumors im going to want to ride this over and over again
Donkey Kong Country was one of my first video game experiences. The music, the aesthetic, the gameplay, and even the awful "movie" that accompanied it, are branded into my brain forever. Moreso than a Mario-themed land, this looks like a dream come true. Islands of Adventure has been my favorite theme park for as long as I can remember, and knowing that this will be opening in my backyard alongside Mario and friends, plus the classic universal monsters I've grown to love, PLUS a brand new theme park from honestly my favorite chain in general...has me overwhelmed with joy and anticipation.
I know the snack stands will have banana flavored items.
HE'S BIGGER, FASTER, AND STRONGER TOO
HE'S THE FIRST MEMBER OF THE D.K. CREW! HUH
D.K. DONKEY KONG
D.K. DONKEY KONG IS HERE
So hyped for that coaster! Thanks Alicia, I've been looking forward to such detailed rumors for a long time.
You’re welcome!
I’m genuinely surprised for how much this ride will have. I was worried it was going to be to short but I appreciate the break down and I can’t wait to ride this!!!
Will you be doing updates of other attractions at Epic Universe soon?
I will continue to update on every ride as we get more rumored details. Check out the Ministry of Magic attraction rumors for example. That ride has gone through multiple iterations, so I’ve got a video catching us up to now on the channel: ua-cam.com/video/U1Z01tJaV3Q/v-deo.html
This would be a perfect opportunity to release a New donkey Kong game in 2024
This is one of best ride i have ever heard if its even half of this it would be awesome. Cant wait!
I love that universal keeps making animatronics. People love them they just take alot maintenance and attention. And money to fix but of course we love them still.
I really hope it's Ellie. Most of the art for the Donkey Kong area seems to focus more heavily on the most recent games, and I want to see more of the characters, landscapes, and features from the classic games back in the Rare era. If Ellie is back, then maybe we'll also get to see Engarde again at long last, or even Squitter!
I think out of everything in epic universe. This iam the most excited for
I have been waiting so patiently for a video just like this!!!!! Thank you guys for the rumors and updates as always :-)
Thanks so much for this Donkey Kong update, I am a huge fan of the franchise ❤️
Professor Chops is about to become a Universal Icon and that can’t happen soon enough
Donkey Kong fans might not get a new game for a whole decade or more, but honestly this theme park is one heck of a consolation prize.
The mine cart jumps can be pretty intense in the Donkey Kong attraction
Unless the Universal Studios theme parks in the U.S. would bring Donkey Kong and Pokémon in their Super Nintendo World areas. Possibly other Nintendo franchises such as Star Fox, Metroid, F-Zero, Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem, Earthbound (Mother at Japan), Kid Icarus, and Super Smash Bros.
Even if they don't expand with a theme of any of the above mentioned franchises, just imagine all of the meet and greet characters that they could rotate, and themed restaurants or hot dog stands they can build in future expansions.
Really great video! You clearly invest a huge amount of time in making these! The ride itself though will have very low capacity - this will be a super headliner, so it will probably have insanely long waits.
Donkey Kong is the only classic Nintendo franchise I have no attachment to, but I'm more excited for this ride than anything else in Super Nintendo Land (until they build Zelda)
I'm most excited just to walk around the Nintendo world, whenever I see the B-roll of the Japanese park, the theming is unreal, beats everything Islands of Adventure ever did. But I have to agree, DK the ride looks the most exciting.
How fun would it be to have a Luigi’s Mansion ride?! A cute family friendly Animal Crossing coaster?! An F-Zero flight ride?! A Metroid Prime dark ride?! The possibilities for Nintendo properties are endless!
About that Metroid Ride...(looks at MIB Orlando respectfully)
@King of The Zinger from what I understand a lot of places are moving away from VR on coasters I don't know about AR but I imagine that they're probably lumped together by the entertainment industry and I think that's one of the reasons why the Mario Kart ride is quote so slow is to compliment the AR besides the fact that also supposed to be a family-friendly ride
I know this was all planned before Smash Ultimate, but it does feel a tad disappointing that K.Rool seemingly won’t be involved in the ride.
Still, I love every thing I hear about this coaster. The minecart trickery is nothing short of genius. Hopefully maybe K.Rool and the Kremlings can have a presence elsewhere, even if just in merchandise.
You do realise K rool has been around since the 90s… If they wanted to include him they out have.
Also this video isn’t fact.
@@ApolloVIIIYouAreGoForTLI no one said he was a new chatacter
I can’t wait to ride this before tron opens 😊
The one in Epic Universe will be open before Tron
OMG this sounds awesome! Donkey Kong was the only video game I played as a kid so I cant wait
So excited!
見た感じリターンズ要素強めで
キングクルールの登場は望み薄っぽいな…
I am so stoked for this ride. The whole area of the park is going to be so fun, but this ride in particular is the thing I'm most excited for.
Super nintendo world is exactly the rebound i need to get over my break up with disney. Its gonna be so super fun i cant wait!
Wow this looks amazing!
Wow it looks so fun! Can’t wait for it to open in Orlando
That sounds amazing!
6:37 tiki tong is gonna be on this ride I use to love the tiki tak tribe as a kid.
Same
This was very informative, thanks!
I'm very curious about the waterfall over the temple. It was a part of the leaked model but in the recently released concept art it is absent. I hope it hasn't been cut from the land.
I was wondering about that too the fact that the water feature is still present in the new art is interesting though. Would be a shame if it was cut, as it was going to be a neat effect utilizing multiple layers of waterfalls behind and in front of the ride track to make it all feel connected.
❤😮fingers crossed hoping the monsters coaster is half this good! UC is on another level creatively lately!!
I hope Hollywood gets an attraction added that would be unique to its Nintendoland. No so much for exclusivity but I like the idea of having to travel to different parks for unique experiences. Also, I will dare to dream about anything revolving around Animal Crossing or Pikmin.
0:26 I like how there’s artwork of Tiki Tong and a Mole Miner. It makes me wonder if we’ll see any Tiki Tak Tribe and Snowmad minions on the Mine Cart Ride?
I don’t know anything about donkey Kong but this looks incredible!! I’m so excited to ride it.
I am very excited about the Super Nintendo World and the new Donkey Kong Mine Cart roller coaster. But what I am really happy about is the the use of the new Boom Coaster system for this ride. If Disney had any common sense they would consider getting John Hogg, inventor of the cantilevered roller coaster concept too perfect that system. Seeing how the Boom coaster is a more simplified version of the cantilevered coaster Disney may want to think about doing something like that seeing how Universal is leaving Disney behind and coming out with amazing rides and ride systems.
Sounds just like a stepping into the game. Hope they have a plan on how to keep the Minions out because there is way too many bananas in that ride.
Japan could assist all the amusement parks to create living animatronics since it is one of the steps to giving birth to the far future.
Fairly off-topic, but really loving the new segment cards for this vid, Alicia. Paired with the background music & font, it was a massive nostalgia hit 😂😂
Also, fantastic news about 2 next-gen animatronics coming to the queue. The more animatronics the better
This might be the newest generation of roller coasters. Just imagine what they’ll be able to pull off with this design!
Gorillas all around! They should bring back a Kongfrontation style ride to studios.
Nice video keep up the good work 🎉
Thank you!
Would love to see a build update of the Donkey Kong area in Japan!!
Thanks.
This was still under construction when we went to Universal Studios Hollywood in CA this past summer. Can't wait to see it.
I'm am excited 😆😄🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
My only gripe for the ride is that there are no Kremlings, they’re the original baddies…the ride looks absolutely amazing though 🔥
Hopefully they keep expanding, and eventually get outside of the mario universe!
I love your content so much u inspired me to make my own channel :) I’m always here and supporting!! 🎉
This is gonna be absolutely insane 😍
Amazing!
So good! U rock
The ride system and everything about the story is on another level, however 4 riders per train?? The operations on this thing must have to be crazy good
Sounds like it is a moving platform, so if it's fairly continuous, that ought to help with capacity. I'm betting the height requirements will be a bit higher than a kiddie coaster, with tighter restrictions for special riders to prevent too many e-stoppages.
I need to ride this now!
I’m excited for this to open in Orlando.
So excited by Universal, Disney is dust
I find it funny that universal has history with nintendo for sueing them about donkey kong being similar to king kong. Now here they are together making a donkey kong ride with a king kong ride just a drive away in orlando.
Time does funny things, don’t it! I’ve thought about doing a video about that story. Just so interesting how it turned out now.
I’m watching the ad because I love your channel but I’m not staying. I want to be surprised by the ride when I finally ride it in 2025.
No worries and totally understand! This video may be filled with possible spoilers!
Universal should stay the course of creating rides out of popular scenes that mimic rides in movies and games. I remember I thought this concept was super cool when sea world had the polar express simulator during Christmas time and then universal took it 10 steps further in terms of what’s possible with gringots. Hope to see more of that type, and to me fast and furious is perfect. Scrap the simulator at USO and make a test track type ride where vin diesel leads you through some chaos
Sounds fun but also scary,hoping from track to track.
They better have funky kong here
I really wish this would come to Hollywood!
I always thought since the cocnept art was released AFTER the model was leaked, that the waterfall was cut, which was a real pity beucase it made look the facade spectacular. Has the waterfall been put back in?
And sice this porject was rumoured, i always thought that a MUST for the queue was a cranky kong making jokes about the coaster, and hopefully even things like when Universal sued Nintendo for the Donkey Kong name ("but hey, thats water under the bridge and we are now friends!"), and seems Universal Creative is going for it!
We’ll have to wait and see. Lots of small details were omitted from the official art, so I’m hoping it will remain!
We need a new full update! Looks like so much more construction progress!
I can't wait to say hi to DK and Diddy, maybe even Dixie and Candy! I haven't PLAYED the DK games exactly, BUT I have played PLENTY of other platformers (like Sonic) to know what to expect! I even wanna give DK a present - an IMPOSSIBLE Burger!
4:00 Cranky will be able to talk to individual guests? Well in THAT case, I'd say "Hi Crankster! How ya doin'? Jusy chillaxin'?'.
Dam that's soo cool it's like being in the actual video game
I am exited for donkey Kong
If you think this is nuts, wait until you see the next two expansions 25-28. 👀
Gotta Catch ‘Em All… cause the Legend is real.
@@ThemeParkStop Don't I need to figure out if you're a Kid or not before you turn over a New Leaf. 🙃
@@jordanwhite352 Well that’s an unexpected Crossing
This looks amazing! Good for Orlando and Japan, but I so wish they could extend Universal Hollywood with less of a hassle. I know that Hollywood is also a studio, but I wish we could get amazing new rides (like this) in Hollywood.
I thought it would be so cool if they did an RMC for the minecart ride. The original park didn’t really have a large scale thrill ride so it could have been something different
Super Nintendo World could also include the worlds of The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Yoshi's Island, Kirby Super Star, Starfox, Pokemon, Earthbound, F-Zero, Fire Emblem, Kid Icarus, Metal Gear, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, PunchOut, Xenoblade Chronicles, Street Fighter, Final Fantasy, Splatoon and Castlevania.
