Universal Studios Singapore is a new Universal theme park which is located within the Resorts World at Sentosa Integrated Resort in Sentosa, Singapore. It was a key component of Genting-Star Cruises bid for the right to build a new resort at Sentosa.It was announced on December 8, 2006 by the Singapore government that the consortium has won the bid and construction is expected to start around mid-2007.

There will be 22 rides in the park and at least 16 of them will either be original or specially designed for the new park.

The park is reported to be a "one-of-its-kind theme park in Asia" as Universal Studios has promised that this will be the only park it would have in Southeast Asia for the next 30 years. Its physical design will be larger than Universal Studios Hollywood with further room for expansion . The total number of attractions in the park will also be more than Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Studios Japan. It will, however, be smaller in terms of both size and number of rides than Universal Studios Florida. It is also estimated that the new park will draw more than five million visitors annually.

About US$1b will be invested in the theme park, which will include 6 themed areas that encircle a lagoon and feature iconic blockbuster locations, as well as new rides based on movies like Madagascar, King Kong, Revenge of the Mummy and Waterworld. There will also be live entertainment shows and educational features where visitors can learn more about computer-generated animation and the art of making a hit movie.
