Super Nintendo World reveals Donkey Kong theme park expansion

The big ape is heading to Universal’s popular park

Nintendo and Universal Studios have revealed that Mario’s original nemesis Donkey Kong will be making his way to their giant Super Nintendo World theme park.

The Donkey Kong expansion will bring a roller coaster, themed food and shopping, and interactive experiences. There hasn’t been a DK game in a few years, so perhaps this could be timed around a new one in the near future. The Donkey Kong expansion will launch in 2024. For a look at what Nintendo did with the Mario side of things, have a peep at the “Direct” below.

Super Nintendo world has been incredibly popular at Universal Japan since it opened earlier this year, and is planned to open at Universal’s Florida “Epic Universe” park by the end of 2025. There’s no word if Donkey Kong will be a part of that.
