VGC reports that the mysterious door is located in the north of the park and is ‘hidden’, with a ‘very DK-like design’ as seen in the image below. Neither Nintendo nor Universal has recognized the door so far in any official capacity, but there is reason to believe that new Donkey Kong elements are already being planned for the park.
By the end of last year, data makers unveiled Donkey Kong stickers in the park’s mobile app, suggesting there will be activities to see and do with Nintendo’s beloved Kong family of characters.
And rumors about DK’s involvement in the park have actually been around since 2019, when leaked draft models unveiled a Super Mario area and Donkey Kong area. The Super Mario concept work is almost identical to the actual case seen in the park today, so it is not exactly a measure to assume that the DK model was also legal.
Even if COVID has not ruined our travel plans, is this perhaps the best way to keep on a visit? Two areas in one sounds pretty good to us.
