Epic Universe theme park will feature a dueling coaster named Starfall Racers in its Celestial Park area, a new Wizarding World of Harry Potter land, roaming monsters and “How to Train Your Dragon” attractions, Universal Orlando confirmed Tuesday.

The under-construction park is scheduled to open in 2025. Epic Universe was announced in 2019, but the company has shared details about the attractions sparingly.

Tuesday’s news release represents the first major bundle of park details, and it concentrated on Celestial Park, the first area that visitors will encounter at Epic. Universal said it will consist of gardens and waterways, Constellation Carousel, the Astronomica wet-play area, dining options and shopping establishments.

Celestial Park then will serve as a portal to four other lands, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, Super Nintendo World and Dark Universe, home of the experiments of Dr. Victoria Frankenstein. This  announcement marks the first confirmation of the lands by the company.

Epic Universe will be located a couple of miles southeast of the cluster of Universal Orlando’s current attractions: Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, Volcano Bay water park and Universal CityWalk, an entertainment and shopping district.

“Universal Epic Universe marks a huge transformational moment for Universal Orlando Resort, and it will change everything about our destination,” Karen Irwin, president and chief operating officer of Universal Orlando Resort, said in a written statement.

“This will be the exciting culmination of our amazing growth over the past 30-plus years and will transform Universal Orlando into a weeklong vacation destination filled with the most thrilling experiences imaginable,” she said.

Universal released two videos to accompany the announcement, one of which showed a digital fly-through of the Celestial Park attractions. The other featured narration by Mark Woodbury, CEO of Universal Parks & Destinations; Molly Murphy, president of Universal Creative; and Brian Robinson, chief creative officer of Universal Creative.

Universal hopes Epic Universe will lure tourists for a week

Epic’s Celestial Park also will include Universal Helios Grand Hotel, which will sport 500 rooms and its own entrance into the theme park.  The resort will be “integrated into the park like no other theme park in the world,” Woodbury said.

Universal previously had announced the names for two other Epic resorts: Stella Nova and Terra Luna, with 750 rooms apiece. The hotels are co-owned and operated by Loews Hotels.

Other fresh facts on the Epic front:

• Starfall Racers will be a dual-launch coaster that peaks at 62 mph and at 133 feet up. That’s almost as fast as Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure at Islands of Adventure (which goes 65 mph) and almost as high as Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit (at 167 feet) at Universal Studios.

• The coaster will have a maneuver known as the Celestial Spin in which “the coaster vehicles perform an inverted cross-cross while speeding through the air,” according to the Universal news release.

• The new Harry Potter land will blend 1920s Paris (a la “Fantastic Beasts”) with the Potterverse’s Ministry of Magic.

• Visitors will enter Super Nintendo World through the green pipe and encounter Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Donkey Kong. Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Studios Japan currently operate Super Nintendo Worlds. Woodbury said it’s “the most interactive, colorful world we’ve ever created.”

• Dark Universe will be where “Universal’s classic monsters are reimagined in an ominous and chilling experience,” Murphy said.

• Celestial Park eateries will include Atlantic, a full-service option set inside a Victorian aquarium; Blue Dragon Pan-Asian Restaurant with neon dragons; Oak & Star Tavern with barbecue; and Pizza Moon. Stores will include Nintendo Super Star Store and Moonship Chocolates & Celestial Sweets.

• Fountains within Celestial Park will reach up to 135 feet and be accompanied by music and interactive lighting.

• The video and concept art showed themed semicircular entrances from Celestial Park into the other lands. “Epic Universe is built on an amazing concept – the idea that you can go into a world through some sort of portal and you come out in a world you never could dream of. You can experience it,” filmmaker Steven Spielberg said in one video. He is listed as a creative consultant.
