The express passes saved us time and allowed us to fully enjoy the park. We are a family of 4 and had an excellent day. Everything is designed so you never stand still in line, whether for an attraction or a restaurant. We had to go through Headout to buy our park tickets because the official website blocks purchases with certain credit cards... I contacted the official website and, despite trying different cards, accounts, etc., etc., it was impossible to buy them on their site. The price on Headout is higher...

Great amusement park. However, when buying tickets with fast passes, it seemed that you are randomly allocated a time to use such passes and cannot select a specific time. Hence we had to gamble that our allocated time was going to be within the 9am to 6pm period that we could attend the park (our cruise ship departed Kobe at 7pm). Unfortunately we were allocated 7:30pm!!! Luckily some protracted negotiations with the helpful staff saved the day, but it could easily been a waste of £750 for 3 tickets with no guaranteed access or fast passes to Nintendo World.

Great experience at Universal Studios Osaka! The park is magnificent and the rides are really awesome. It was very crowded with long lines, but thanks to the Fast Pass, we were able to do all the rides we wanted without wasting too much time. It makes a huge difference if you want to make the most of your day. I highly recommend getting the Fast Pass to avoid spending hours waiting in line!

Easy admission, voucher instructions were clear. QR code worked smoothly. Just one note for anyone on the fence: I think it's impossible to do all the attractions without skip-the-line access in just one day, even with a 10:00 PM closing. I've never seen so many people in a park... and I've been to quite a few 😅. In short, a trustworthy and efficient site, I will keep using it.

Couldn't fault anything. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The park was very clean. My sister lost her wallet and it had been handed in with all her money. Food prices weren't too expensive. Loved the Jurassic Park dinosaur meet and greet and the after 6pm Halloween zombies

It was a very beautiful day, sunny and warm, despite the fact that it is a very populated place, this day in particular wasn't overcrowded, and we could enjoy the park , and using the express pass, we went to "the flying dinosaur" the Koppa's Challenge, and the Harry Potter attraction, we save hours in line because of that and we could spent more time enjoying the rest of the park

Really smooth entry with small queues, and nice inside the Express Pass allowed us to get so much more out of the day by spending a significant less time in queues for attractions than we otherwise would have. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey an absolute highlight!

Fast pass is definitely the way to go. Only down fall is that you don't pick the times , they are allocated to you so you have to be prepared to have a big day. Thankfully all the Nintendo rides were around the same time so we could move from one to the other easily!

Getting started

Enter Universal Studios Japan with your 1-Day Studio Pass QR at the park entrance. Keep your separate Express Pass QR ready for participating rides, and check your allocated ride times so you can plan the rest of your day around your timed entry to Super Nintendo World™.

What to expect

Super Nintendo World™

Make your way into Super Nintendo World™ during your allocated entry time and step into a game-inspired world built around familiar Nintendo characters, settings, and interactive experiences.

Explore Super Mario Land, where you can see familiar Mushroom Kingdom-inspired scenery and attractions.

Visit Bowser's Castle and experience the Mario Kart: Koopa's Challenge™ attraction, with Express access included when covered by your selected option.

Discover Yoshi's Adventure, another attraction within Super Nintendo World™, when included in your Express Pass option.

Your timed entry gives you access to the area during your designated period, so you can explore its attractions and themed spaces within that window.

Universal Studios Japan

Outside Super Nintendo World™, use your Express Pass at the other participating attractions included in your selected option. Your 1-Day Studio Pass lets you continue exploring the park between your Express ride times.

Use dedicated Express access at each eligible attraction covered by your option.

Each included Express ride can be accessed once using your Express Pass.

Depending on your selection, your pass can cover 4 or more attractions, giving you priority access to multiple rides across the park.

Ride times included in your Express Pass are allocated randomly by the park, so check your ticket details and plan around the assigned slots.
