The Direct will provide an in-depth look at the new Donkey Kong-themed area, which includes attractions like the Mine-Cart Madness roller coaster. This expansion is expected to open before the end of 2024, though some speculate that the Direct may reveal an official opening date or confirm if there are any delays into 2025.
It’s important to note that no video game information will be shared during this presentation, as it is solely focused on the theme park expansion. For those interested in future developments, a similar Donkey Kong Country area will also be part of the upcoming Universal Epic Universe in Orlando, set to open in May 2025
