So long, Epic Universe. Universal's next Orlando theme park--which would've been the East Coast home of Super Nintendo World--has been delayed indefinitely, after reporting an almost $1.5 billion drop in second quarter theme park revenues year-over-year.
, its third Florida theme park that was originally scheduled to open in 2023, has been indefinitely postponed.
Universal hadn’t released much official information about Epic Universe, other than that it was being built on a parcel of land about five miles away from the rest of Universal Orlando Resort, and that it would be one of two American homes of Super Nintendo World, which was scheduled to open in Japan this summer.
. A division that took in almost $1.5 billion in the second quarter of 2019 only made $87 million the same quarter in 2020. Of course most of the company’s parks were closed in the second quarter, with only its two parks in Orlando and its Japanese park reopening in June.
