2024 seems to be THE YEAR for video game and theme park collaborations.
We learned that Disney would be partnering with EPIC Games, the creators of Fortnite, to create an online Disney experience that includes entertainment, shopping, gaming, and more. We had a feeling that Universal Studios would also be partnering with a video game platform — Minecraft. Universal was leaving all sorts of cryptic posts using words like “block” and “craft,” and we just KNEW it was a Minecraft collaboration.
We were RIGHT!
