Super Nintendo World Florida, set to open in 2025 within the new Universal Park Epic Universe, is the latest addition to Universal Parks’ Nintendo-themed lands, following those in Japan and Hollywood. This Orlando attraction is designed for fans of the iconic Mario video game franchise, featuring attractions, dining experiences, and immersive engineering based on the Super Mario Bros, Mario Kart, and Yoshi franchises.
Located about 15 minutes south of the current Universal Orlando Resort campus in the brand new EPIC Universe park, Super Nintendo World promises a nostalgic adventure for visitors. Super Nintendo World Hollywood opened on February 17, 2023, setting a precedent for what’s to come in Orlando. While waiting for more details about the Orlando opening, fans can look forward to attractions like Mario Kart: Koopa’s Challenge, Yoshi’s Adventure, and potentially a new Donkey Kong roller coaster, alongside unique dining options and character meet and greets.
The Nintendo World Orlando opening date will be announced when the official opening date of Epic Universe is released. Currently, it has been confirmed that we will see Epic Universe open in the Summer of 2025. Once we have more details about the Mario World in Orlando opening date, we can update you here!
But, if EPIC Universe is coming in 2025, then the Super Nintendo World Orlando opening date has to be sometime that year!

One of the new features coming to Super Mario Land at Universal Studios Orlando will be the Power Up bands which allow guests to enjoy a new interactive feature. You must purchase a Power Up Band, which gives you access to play activities in the land and in-app to collect different keys and coins throughout Super Nintendo World. These Power Up Bands allow you to participate in virtual-reality experiences through mini-games mini-games and physical challenges while in the park, like Goomba Crazy Crank and Koopa Troopa Power Punch. There are also nostalgic features that come with a Power-Up band, like being able to hit those iconic question mark blocks to collect coins.
The Super Nintendo World Power-Up band cost is $40 plus tax in Universal Studios Hollywood, so we assume that the price will be around the same when they come stateside. You can choose from six designs based on the Super Nintendo characters – Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Toadstool, and Yoshi. Once you have your Power-Up band, you register it to your Universal Studios app which allows you to keep track of your progress while you journey through the Mushroom Kingdom.
Once Nintendo Land Universal Orlando opens in 2025, guests will be able to purchase their bands inside the park.

Universal does a great job with character meet and greets and that hasn’t changed with Super Nintendo World. Luckily for us, there will be a handful of Mario characters that will be featured in Orlando and Super Mario World Universal Studios Hollywood.
The Super Mario Universal characters all have blinking eyes, and moving mouths and can even speak a few lines. Nintendo World Florida characters are bound to be the same as what we’ve seen in Hollywood.
We officially met Toad in Super Nintendo Hollywood this past summer and loved it. So we highly recommend the character’s meet and greet!
