Super Nintendo World Hollywood is opening in early 2023, Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge revealed

Super Nintendo World Hollywood

Universal Studios has announced Super Nintendo World Hollywood is finally opening its doors sometime in early 2023.

While we’ve known Super Nintendo World Hollywood was coming sometime in 2023, the new announcement firms things up a bit and confirms that COVID-19 concerns are apparently no longer a burden on life in California.


Alongside the news that Super Nintendo World Hollywood is set to finally open in the United States, Nintendo also unveiled their highly-anticipated Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge ride.

The new attraction will feature a mix of a physical ride simulating a racing experience combined with augmented and virtual reality.

Here’s a new trailer for Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge:

Other locations for Super Nintendo World, like the previously confirmed Orlando location, haven’t been talked up at this time but it’s likely they’ll open soon after considering most people thankfully don’t care about COVID-19 anymore.

The Japan debut for Super Nintendo World was delayed multiple times due to fear of a COVID-19 outbreak at the time, with the final delay happening mere months before they decided to just open the park anyway. The park opened to success and COVID-19 wasn’t a problem, apparently.
