3. The park looks a little different due to Project 791

Universal continued work on "Project 791" all throughout lockdown, which will be a new roller coaster themed to Jurassic Park. According to several reports, this new Jurassic-themed attraction will be a multi-launch roller  coaster with twists and turns and a top hat element, loosely themed to the raptors seen in the Jurassic World series. And if you visit Islands of Adventure, you will see much of the track of this still unannounced roller coaster installed in the Jurassic Park area of the park, including a recently installed heartline roll. 

Though we don't know many specifics about it right now, many have speculated that we could see an opening sometime early next year, and with construction moving at such a fast pace, that seems like a very likely scenario!

4. Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure is still not running reliably

Though it has officially been over a year since the grand opening of Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, it looks like this attraction is still suffering with uptime issues, and has been unfortunately going down with some regularity during the first reopening days of Universal Orlando Resort.

Which just goes to show, while some things have changed at Universal, others have stayed very much the same.
