Nintendo has unveiled the next addition to the Super Nintendo World theme parks: Donkey Kong Country, which will be part of multiple Universal Studios parks.
The current Super Nintendo World, which is open in Japan, has content focusing solely on the Mario series, with a massive Mushroom Kingdom to explore. Fans are expecting more non-Mario franchises to be added over time.
A new Nintendo Direct has been uploaded to YouTube to show off the Donkey Kong Country addition to the park, which is planned for the Japanese Super Nintendo World on December 11.
The Orlando, Florida Super Nintendo World will also feature a Donkey Kong Country when it opens on May 22, 2025.

The Nintendo Direct starred Shigeru Miyamoto as he explored the Donkey Kong area ahead of its grand opening.
One of the most surprising reveals for old-school Nintendo fans is a rhythm game involving three sets of massive bongo drums. Those who wasted their youth playing “All-Star” in Donkey Konga on the GameCube will finally have a chance to show their skills.
Naturally, a ton of merchandise will be released in Donkey Kong Country....
