Introducing how to use Super Nintendo World™

Depending on the situation, you may be able to enter Super Nintendo World without one, but it may be difficult as it is a very popular area. So, if you really want to enter, we recommend purchasing an area admission ticket.

Ticket prices vary depending on the date.

Universal Studios Japan admission tickets are broadly divided into seasons A, B, C, and D.

A: Low season
B: Regular season
C: Regular - High Season
D: High season
E: Super high season

Since prices vary depending on the day, it is important to check what season the day you visit falls on. Conversely, it may be a good idea to visit during the A:Low season, when tickets are the cheapest. Detailed season details can be found on the Universal Studios Japan official site.

Universal Wonderland issues ‘reservation ride’ tickets that allow you to reserve the time of ride attractions. Once you specify your usage time and issue a ticket, your reservation is complete! Until usage time, you can play at Playland or Athletic or explore the park.
Check details about reserved boarding

You can issue e-numbered tickets in the new app. You can enjoy entering the area and experiencing the attractions smoothly, and the time children spend waiting in line can be used for other fun activities such as playland or restaurants. Check your e-ticket

Introducing the most popular areas

Universal Studios Japan has areas with a variety of themes. Among these, I will introduce you to the most popular areas recently.

1. Mario Kart: Koopa’s Challenge

The famous world of Mario Kart and various courses full of surprises appear right in front of you. Rush along with Mario and Princess Peach while throwing your shell to repel enemies! The excitement never stops at the world's first Mario Kart experience realized with Park's latest technology!

2. Yoshi's Adventure

Let's hop on Yoshi's back and go on a treasure hunting adventure chasing Captain Kinopio! It's full of fun, such as finding three eggs hidden all over the place by referring to the map that the captain forgot to leave behind, overlooking the Mushroom Kingdom from Mount Kidari, and meeting cute kids!

3. Minion Mayhem

Enjoy the most exciting ride attraction as you are realistically swept into the chaos caused by the minions, with realistic videos unfolding on a giant dome screen! The stage is the mansion and laboratory of the phantom thief Guru. Start your extraordinary training to become a Minion by riding the special vehicle invented by Gru! Run around the lab with numerous minions and Guru's three daughters, fly around as much as you want, and then plummet to the ends of the earth! I thought it was, but the deep bond between Minion and Gru and the three sisters unexpectedly made my heart flutter. A minion who is so free but has a strong sense of justice!

Let's jump into the middle of the chaos and enjoy the cuteness of Mini!

4. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey

The overwhelming experience ride attraction that lets you race through the world of Harry Potter™, which has won the award as the world's No. 1 ride attraction for the past five consecutive years, has evolved even further!

With realistic video that maximizes reality, 3D glasses are no longer needed, and with the more powerful magic effect, the dragon's flames and the Dementor's cold directly hit your entire body! Experience the thrill of a new dimension through a new adventure as you run through the 360-degree magical world more realistically and closer, surrendering your whole body to it!

Get caught on the back by the runaway dinosaur Pteranodon and fly through the air with your whole body exposed! This is an “unbelievable” thrill experience that will take you away from your daily life as you are dragged around the world of Jurassic Park 360 degrees.

Introducing how to get to Universal Studios Japan

Universal Studios Japan is a bit far from downtown Osaka. That’s why it’s important to find it smartly. The editor's recommendation is to use the Osaka Loop Line and JR Yumesaki Line from Umeda to get to JR Universal City Station . Please note that because it is a JR line, you cannot use the Osaka Amazing Pass.
