Universal Studios Japan and Nintendo announced that people will be able to get an early look at the new Donkey Kong Country expansion of the Super Nintendo World area of USJ. The Play Wild challenge event will allow participants to experience some of the features and activities that will appear at the theme park.
While there is not much information on what the Play Wild challenge will consist of, we know that part of the challenge will involve hitting question mark blocks and congas in real life. The Play Wild challenge event will be held on February 15-16 in Tokyo, February 22-23 in Nagoya, and March 7-8, 2024 in Fukuoka. Reservations are now open until January 24, 2023.
Approximately 3,000 people will be able to participate in the challenge. In addition, participants who share images and videos of the Play Wild event on X (formerly Twitter) will enter a lottery with the chance of winning special advance tickets to the Donkey Kong Country area.
Nintendo originally announced their intention to add a Donkey Kong area to Super Nintendo World USJ back in September 2021. It was recently confirmed that the new expansion would appear in Spring 2024, and USJ also teased one of its upcoming attractions.
The new Donkey Kong Country zone will be available at the Super Nintendo World area of Universal Studios Japan in Spring 2024.
