Originally announced in December 2019, the new interactive adventure features characters from Disney's DuckTales and uses the Play Disney app to explorer EPCOT's World Showcase.

Disney's DuckTales World Showcase Adventure invites guests to join Scrooge McDuck, Donald, nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie, Launchpad and Webby in search of priceless treasure. Using the Play Disney Parks mobile app, guests take a trip around World Showcase discovering exotic destinations, exciting mysteries, and maybe even a few thieves, villains and supernatural guardians of ancient artifacts.

Several missions are available, with each taking around 30 minutes to complete, and located at the following pavilions:

  • China
  • Mexico
  • Norway
  • Germany
  • Japan
  • FranceUnited Kingdom

The new scavenger hunt will replace Disney Phineas and Ferb - Agent P's World Showcase Adventure.

DuckTails World Showcase Adventure to debut this Friday, December 16th -
People are playing it today. I saw Huey pop up on the roof above the Biergarten entrance.

Or was that Dewey disguised as Huey, just to throw you off…?

Kind of hard to tell whoever it was was wearing a red benie.

Yes, this looks to be largely a reskin of Agent P.

That's not necessarily a bad thing if there is new story and animation on your phone to link it all together but it kind of makes me wonder why, even with the pandemic, it's taken them three years from announcement to make it happen.

Maybe they decided to add practical stuff originally built for inclusion somewhere in the Play Pavilion?

Definitely surprising. This would have been an ideal pandemic addition.

Part me of is still convinced this was silently cancelled, then with Cosmic Rewind's long wait times, they realized people need something to do while waiting, so they revived this (plus it gets them to maybe buy food and drinks around the countries).

There have been some scenes on Twitter, too. Fully voice acted, good animation. Would like to know if they got BD Wong back for his character. Looks to reuse a lot of gags from Agent P but with some remade statuettes for the physical effects.

This...is something I really, really want to do.

Also, I think this puts Allison Janney into three WDW attractions, two of which are in EPCOT.

Is there an in-universe explanation why Donald is being chased by a human statuette when humans don't exist in the Ducktales universe (unless if it's a season 3 thing, I didn't watch it tbh)?

According to Dinoland and it's radio announcer, Duckburg is within driving distance of human-filled Florida.

In other words, I don't think they're paying particularly close attention to that kind of thing.

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show, I should really just relax".

And Kermit's family swamp is right behind the resort as Kermit mentions it The Muppets at WDW..
After seeing a few videos..Only downside to this, no voices done by the actors of the show..After all that time you'd thought they would have done recordings.

I'm no expert but this certainly does sound like Tennant and Schwartz.
