Even though Epic Universe just opened earlier this year, Universal is already looking to the future — and thanks to stunning new aerial photos by @bioreconstruct on X, we now have a clear view of the park’s two massive expansion pads that hint at what could be next for this already groundbreaking destination.

In the first image, we can see the large cleared area just beyond the dome-topped buildings and lush gardens of Celestial Park, the heart of Epic Universe. This site sits behind the park’s hub and across from the lagoon area, perfectly positioned for a potential future addition to the central park district. While it’s currently bare, the location offers plenty of room for expansion.

The second aerial shows the larger of the two pads, located between Super Nintendo World and Dark Universe. This stretch of land is already serviced by backstage roads and utilities, making it prime real estate for a future “world.” Fans have been quick to point out that the massive Chronos Tower entrance gate at the front of Epic Universe includes two empty circles among its land medallions. These blank spots line up symbolically (and geographically) with the two expansion areas seen in @bioreconstruct’s photos.
So what could fill these spaces someday? Rumors have swirled about a Legend of Zelda-themed expansion to Super Nintendo World, which would make perfect sense given its proximity. Others have suggested that the opposite pad could be home to a “Wicked”-themed land, especially with Universal Pictures’ major two-part film adaptation arriving in theaters in 2025 and 2026.
