Next summer, guests will engage in diabolical fun for kids, teens and adults as part of Universal Orlando Resort’s newest attraction, Illumination’s Villain-Con Minion Blast. This interactive, blaster game experience will invite guests to put their villainous skills to the test as they compete against each other in a bid to join the ranks of the franchise’s most infamous supervillains.
Villain-Con Minion Blast combines innovative screen technology, gaming interactivity and physical sets to create a game-based adventure where guests encounter immersive environments, nefarious villains and tons of mischievous Minions from Illumination’s films in a whole new way.
The attraction transports guests to Villain-Con – the biggest criminal convention on the planet – to take part in an epic competition to see if they have what it takes to become the newest member of The Vicious 6, a notorious group of supervillains from the hit film, “Minions: The Rise of Gru.” Guests who are up for the challenge will grab an interactive blaster and step onto a motion-based pathway to put their skills to the test.
Villain-Con Minion Blast will open in Summer 2023 at Universal Studios within the new Minion Land on Illumination Ave. This new area also features Despicable Me Minion Mayhem attraction, a new Minion Café and more from Illumination’s blockbuster franchises.
