Universal Studios Japan plans to invest up to $1.9 billion to expand its Osaka park, according to Nikkei Asia, as visitation remains strong. The NBCUniversal subsidiary will use a large adjacent site to build new attractions. Since opening in 2001 as Universal's first theme park outside the U.S., it has become a key international destination, drawing over 11 million visitors in its first year. Major expansions like The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in 2014, Minion Park in 2017, and Super Nintendo World in 2021 have boosted its appeal. The park ranks third worldwide in annual attendance, behind Disney's Magic Kingdom and Disneyland.
