Epic Universe Expansion Speculation

[OrlLover]

Do we have confirmation Project 680 is the pad between Nintendo and Darkmoor?

Well according to @Alicia latest video…permits that were assigned to IOA for the Zelda project were all in the 670 range.

So it’s not far fetched that 680 is related to those older ones.

It’s all speculation but it’s a high chance this is a case of IP’s being swapped between the parks.

After whatever this Potter attraction is.

I honestly believe Legend of Zelda will be its own portal down the line, and the SNW plot will be a Luigi’s Mansion trackless dark ride attraction.

Have also heard rumblings of like a Mack Rocking Boat style attraction for Creature of the Black Lagoon in Dark Universe


I might be stating the obvious at this point. But who knows….

There’s a few other things I’d like to see done here at Epic, but those rn are just predictions without any notoriety whatsoever

If Zelda does come to Epic, it would probably make the most sense to put it next to the rest of SNW. There is room for its own portal on the opposite side of the Celestial Park Nintendo Store.

That’s what I was thinking.

I think a great flagship attraction for a portal like that could be a ride similar to Arthur over at Europa Park (half dark ride/half coaster)

I did also wanna see like a Donkey Kong log flume ride over in Donkey Kong Country at some point, but if it needs the space for LoZ, I’d scrap it in a heartbeat

No.

I think Luigi's Mansion was always going to be an uphill battle when they chose to incorporate the ghost house environment/Boos into Mario Kart. Granted, Forbidden Journey presented a similar problem for Potter expansion: They assumed they only had one shot at a Potter dark ride, so they covered a lot of ground that they'd inevitably explore again (dragons, Forbidden Forest, dementors).

I do think a Luigi's Mansion ride would rule, but unfortunately, the ideal ride system for it was... probably what they used for Mario Kart, with the AR goggles. Imagine if you could only "see" the ghosts in AR...

While I wouldn't mind a Luigi's Mansion darkride, I do recall the only rumors swirling around that was using VillainCon's tech...not 100% sure if folks would be down for that.

No.

What Alicia said, the permit that was briefly up didn't list anything where we could pinpoint where in the park this project is going.

Oddly enough, 680 is the number of times my cat wakes me up every night to pet her.
