The Minions Are Causing Mayhem!
What do you get when you mix Despicable Me and Mayhem? Minion Park of course!
Vacationers to the land of the rising sun are about to get a face full of bananas and mischief! Minion Park, the world’s absolute largest Minion-themed property, will be coming to Universal Studios Japan in Osaka in early 2017.
Entertainment Weekly reports that the Despicable Me-themed land, set to include a ride, a toy store, a sweets factory, and a hotel. It has been noted that Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem, a theater-based attraction, will anchor the new area — I assume this is not unlike the wildly popular attraction of the same name in north America.

So they may switch things up a bit for the new land.
Additional details haven’t been revealed yet, but by the look of the wild promotional image, it’s going to be one heck of an ambitious project:
