From the Wikipedia article

Universal Epic Universe is a theme park owned by NBCUniversal and operated by Universal Destinations & Experiences and located in Orlando, Florida, United States. It opened to the public on May 22, 2025. Epic Universe is the third theme park, and fourth overall, to open at Universal Orlando Resort. The park is part of a larger 750-acre (300 ha) development located a few miles south of the other parks. It features five themed areas: Celestial Park, Dark Universe, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, Super Nintendo World, and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic. Construction began in August 2019 and the expected completion date was later delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Details surrounding the park's themed areas and attractions were initially vague, with Super Nintendo World as the last of the themed lands to be officially announced in 2023. Headlining attractions include the motion-based dark rides Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry and Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment, a dual-tracked racing roller coaster called Stardust Racers, and an augmented reality dark ride called Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge.
