Out of curiosity, do you think this park will open with the option to also purchase Express Passes? Maybe an option if staying at the new hotel?

Nothing has been announced at all about express passes for epic universe , they haven’t even confirmed there will be a new hotel opening (though we all know they will) I’d say it be 2024 before we here anything for the supposed 2025 opening

They actually say 2 hotels will be opening. One that’s in the park will bound to be at the higher end of the scale and I reckon in line with the other deluxe will offer express. The second hotel that permits have recently been filed for I think will be like Cabana Bay and only do early entry.

It’s moving in at pace. It’s definitely taking shape.

PC Dev did a video the other day where he drove around various places showing shots of the park, you could see rollercoaster track, he was pondering that he thought it may be ahead of schedule.

It's very exciting.

It’s going to have, rumoured of course.

4 lands which will have 4 coasters.

Nintendo World which includes a Donkey Kong rollercoaster and the Mario Kart ride. This area has had the most work done so far.

Classic Monsters Land which have a spinning family coaster and a large indoor dark ride.

A Harry Potter Land(could be Fantastic Beasts)

How to Train Your Dragon Land which includes a family coaster designed by the makers of Hagrids

The biggest ride will be a duelling coaster from the central hub rumoured to have a space theme.

I watched an interesting video on YouTube of it earlier, looks like it is definitely picking up some pace. Will be done before Tron at this rate.

Some track has already been delivered for some coasters.

They started clearing the site a few years ago, things slowed over the panademic but in last year things have really taken off - roll on 2025 for the completion, looking forward to it

I suspect that, yes, there will be the option to buy Express Passes for the park. Guests staying at deluxe resorts may also get them - although I'm less sure about that (perhaps the price to stay at these will increase?).

Those Express Passes won't include the big E-ticket rides though, just like they don't include Hagrids and Velocicoaster now. I'd also expect the price of them to be quite a bit more expensive than the current ones.
