Universal Epic Universe News Mega Update - DARK UNIVERSE VILLAGE, RIDE VEHICLE PATENTS, & HOTEL INFO 

There’s just so much happening right now!

Dark Universe is by far the portal I am most excited to walk through!

Thank you and don't forget to give a huge thanks to all the workers who are working in the heat, mud and rain to build this amazing park for our entertainment.

I feel like just walking around sightseeing in each of these lands is an attraction in itself. Props to the construction workers and designers making such immersive lands.

It's alive it's alive!

Between the driveby tiktok filming the delivery of the Harry Potter ride vehicle to digging up the shipping logs on their website, this felt like the most "guerilla journalism" update so far haha

The way we are getting info from a tiktok video, project number and city patents is the most insane news coverage 6:34

The level of research on this channel is insane. You are one of a kind Alicia.

I love how Dark Universe looks similar to the layout of the actual set used for Frankenstein at the Universal Backlot.

For forever now, we've said Disney's 5th Park should should be a Villain-themed one. Welp, UNI got that memo and, while not an entire park, I couldn't be happier for the new world.

I love how Alicia says on her official updates, “Perhaps this could be the official name for this projected retail location.” And on podcasts she’d be all giddy and bubbling, “It’s definitely that!, I’m pretty sure it’s that!, I found it on the permit at 3:02am last Tuesday, and right there it is!”

Wow, this potter attraction sounds like it’ll be the crown jewel for Epic… although I’m sure the Monster’s Kuka Ride will give it a run for its money

I actually really like that Universal is making a park inside of the park to give people some space away from the rest.

Epic Universe is going to absolutely blow every other park out of the water. Right now when you think about immaculately themed lands that truly take you to a different place, the list is pretty short. I can think of 5 the United States that make the cut - Diagon Alley in Universal Studios Florida, Hogsmeade in Universal's Islands of Adventure, Super Mario World at Universal Studios Hollywood, Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Hollywood Studios and Disneyland, and Pandora at Animal Kingdom. Notably this is 1 ultra-themed land per park. At Epic Universe we’ll have 5 lands in 1 park with top tier theming. Words cannot express how excited I am!

The joy I feel every time a new video pops up in my feed. 😁😁

Seeing all of the rockwork theming and stuff near all of the restaurants and hotel really brings forth just how fast the development is going. Summer 2025 can't come soon enough!

Wow!!! It's really coming together. I'm beyond excited. As always, thank you for these awesome videos.

I hope epic universe goes well it's exciting having a potential universal great Britain been built after because universal is on fire atm

Epic Universe is going to blow Disney World out of the water because Universal is taking this to a whole new level of entertainment and family vacations in Florida. I love to see theme park companies always bring something new to their guests to have an amazing experience in their theme parks.

I think this will be the first new theme park being built where I'm excited for every land! It all looks so good! I can't wait to see what Super Nintendo World, Dark Universe and the Wizarding World: Ministry of Magic will officially look like!

Oh my gosh I just can't wait to be in the Monster 's land!! I still can't believe they are actually making a Monster's land!!

Curse of the werewolf ride sounds awesome! They’ve really gone all out and made sure to create worlds that have quality rides and attractions. Even if some worlds seem more interesting than others, you can’t help but want to see how they all tie together the more you hear about each of them

1:30 Yeeeessss baby gimme that retail location! I'm ready to drop a grand on Universal monster merch!

This is looking absolutely colossal. This has to take the crown from DisneySea for best themed, right?

I get more excited with every update!!! 🎉😊 It's really coming along! I've been dying for more info on Dark Universe!

The fact that we could have something on this scale and detail in the uk, within 6 ish years is insane 😱😱😱🤣

I look forward to your updates more than anyone else's posts xd You round things up so beautifully and your voice is soooo perfect for videos :)

incredible video 🔥🙌🏼

Great video Allecia, you do work when comes to explaining the details about EPIC UNIVERSE

Thank you for keeping us up to date! We've been following along and look forward to each update... can't wait to see it for ourselves!!

I honestly just wanna thank you for uploading updates on the construction cause it's so cool to see how far the construction has gone, and to see how it's all coming together to look just as good as the other parks.

The last month or so construction has really started to fly which is fantastic news. It really seems like they're connecting the pieces of the puzzle now. I can't wait to hear official news for Epic's opening dates.

This is so exciting. Watching it all come together makes me even more eager to go when it opens. Thanks for your wonderful, informative videos.

Thanks for all the updates! Looks amazing!

Thanks for another great update video! The lands are coming along so quickly!

It’s really just an epic video, this changes everything.

Awesome update. You have very professional and detailed reports regarding to progress of Epic Universe. Thank you!

13:23 These drones are what I’m looking forward to the most!

Are the restrooms in Dark Universe going to be haunted?

So exciting to see the progress. It's really taking shape.

Always looking forward to the update videos!

The final swell of the closing music is conditioning me to know exactly the end of the video and then cuing sadness. Love your videos!

Feels like it's been too long to see one of the vids. Love when they're ony feed!

the dark universe village seems intriguing. Like little by little theyre bringing the Universal Monsters back in a classic way.

I’ve been waiting for an update 😊

Thank you for the update .

Looove these updates thank you so much

One thing I found out about what category of resort Terra Luna and Stella Nova will be is they'll be in the Prime Value, same as Cabana Bay. So that's good to know. I was always wondering which category they be in since it's pretty obvious the Helios will either be Premiered or Preferred. I know a lot of work has been done, but I do wonder if Epic will be ready by Summer 2025. I'd rather they get everything right though before opening and it's obvious they are making sure things are going to be safe.

Another great job Alicia - keep it up :)

Oh man, this is going along so well. This is going to make Disney look like a joke. I'm glad that Universal has been aggressive about all this

Your coverage is way above and beyond others

there are videos that upload more frequent than this channel but i prefer to not watch them and watch these videos instead. i feel like they’re more higher quality and the narrator is so comforting!

Thanks for the update! Can’t wai t

What a wonderful update. Thank you.

Could the rooftop bar at the Grand Helios be themed to an observatory? the roof really gives off that vibe

Fantastic job as always!

LOVE these videos. Just dreaming of my family’s EPIC vacation every day.

I can’t wait!!!!! Def getting annual passes for this park! 🤩

This is great work. Thanks! I can't wait.

Fantastic update! Thank you for the thorough and in-depth coverage on what promises to be a truly exciting destination theme park!

Thanks for the update.

Thank you so much for these videos. So much joy! I can’t wait to experience all of this with my kids.

Thank you. Unrivalled coverage.

I always look forward to these uploads, really exciting how the pace of things is quickening as scaffolding is coming down, more things are being painted, and what was once a vast swath of dirt is breaking up into smaller islands of dirt and ultimately disappear entirely. It seems that they're trying to finish most of the outdoor work before the brutal Florida summer really hits, and workers begin the interior work. It's been a fun multi-year ride watching the development of Epic Universe, but I am curious how this channel is going to with the updates at the later half of this year in between when the park looks "complete" from the outside, and up until opening day. The vast majority of work will have shifted indoors by then where unfortunately we can't see into from aerial drone filming. Watching these videos are really fun but also have spoiled me to a lot of what to expect from it. Those interior areas I mentioned earlier, the silver lining is that I'm going to let that surprise me, gotta leave some element of surprise and wonder!

i miss the days when i was a kid and could actually go to a theme park without knowing whether anything new had been added.

I'm so excited for this park!!! Alicia thank you and to your team so much for the awesome updates

I am only disappointed about the dome not being glass atop Helios 😭

I just found your channel and am so happy I did! My family and I are so excited for all the new "lands" being opened at Universal. We live in Maine and are planning to visit in the October following the opening of the new areas.

Kinda off topic, but when they were showing the potential site of the new hotel, I noticed all of the apartment complexes near the park. I mean how cool is it you live right next to this place, but on the other hand I hope those apartment complexes don't have trash owners who will look to jack up the rent because they are now in like the "Universal Epic Universe bubble", that would not be cool at all.

Thank you for being my go to for information on Epic Universe. I look forward to all your videos.

Thank you workers for all the hard work you are doing to bulid epic for us to enjoy

Love the update thanks for the information. I want to go as soon as it opens

That shipping crate video for the MoM ride is an excellent find. Those are large ride vehicles.

Fingers crossed the harry potter ride is about the battle at the department of mysteries and not some stupid Umbridge trial

wow you do such a great job!

I was wondering earlier today when the next update would be, and here it is!

This is shaping up to be the coolest theme park of all time

Can’t wait!!!

Excellent update!! Thanks

Great update! We cannot wait!

Cannot wait for this park to open.

When you guys are showing shipping bills... above and beyond! Great investigation!

Luxury theme park is what universal is building…. It’s going to be EPIC 😉

The behind the scenes construction is so cool. It is all ofc modern concrete and structural steel but the magic happens when the facades are put on. The illusion is created when the artists get to start working on the canvas that the heavy construction team members put down.

So informative! Thank you

Universal is killing it!!! Can't wait

Starting with landscaping early. is GREAT

Great update!

Wow! I can’t believe how quickly they’re getting things done! It’s incredible! I’m so so so excited!!

The covered wagon at 3:07 is actually the kiosk you showed at 3:38! Great reporting as always though!

I really hope the werewolf roller coaster is not visible within the land. That would be horrible.

It's really starting to take shape now! Universal may be building a park where I live in the UK, it's in the very early stages but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

It’s looking so good!

Getting better and better. Nearing countdown.

I love this park and it will be exciting when it opens!

This was such a good one

I be waiting for your videos about this park and it’s hotels

this is amazing thank you

This is like watching my wildest Rollercoaster Tycoon dreams come true. Thank you for all your hard work! ❤

Always excited to see your new videos!! Cant wait for EU to open!!!
