Universal Orlando Resort is iconic in many ways, notably due to its collection of classic thrill rides like Revenge of the Mummy and The Incredible Hulk. However, the resort has kicked things up quite a few notches in recent years, debuting world-class roller coasters like Jurassic World VelociCoaster and Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure.

These two rides seemed to usher in a new age for Universal Studios as a whole, with the theme park company setting aside millions upon millions of dollars for future expansions, new rides, and a whole host of unannounced projects.

This leads to Epic Universe, Universal Orlando’s upcoming third theme park.

Announced back in 2019, Epic Universe is one of, if not Universal’s most ambitious theme park expansion projects to date.

Epic Universe will be anchored by several core brands and franchises, like Harry Potter and How to Train Your Dragon, with the theme park split up into distinct lands.

One of these lands is Dark Universe, an area dedicated to Universal’s collection of classic monsters, such as Wolfman, Frankenstein’s Monster, and The Invisible Man.

Epic Universe is expected to open in the summer of 2025.
