Universal Studios Hollywood Drops 3D From King Kong 360 on Studio Tour

The move reflects an industry trend toward glasses-free presentations prompted by comfort complaints, prioritizing clearer visuals.

Overview

  • Universal updated its official website to confirm King Kong 360 now runs in 2D, eliminating the need for 3D glasses.
  • The Studio Tour sequence retains its large-scale projection tunnels and tram motion effects despite the format change.
  • The segment returned to operation in a reported soft reopening after a multi-week closure tied to the update.
  • With this change, the park’s remaining glasses-based attractions are TRANSFORMERS: The Ride-3D and Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge.
  • The update aligns with a wider shift away from 3D seen at Skull Island: Reign of Kong in 2024 and at Disney rides such as Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure.
