It's Official. This New Universal Super Bowl Ad Has Us Feeling Like A Kid Again

It’s almost time for the BIG GAME! That’s right, we’re football fans in this virtual house, and we are only a few days away from Super Bowl LX.

The Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots will be battling it out on the field, and while we are excited to see who takes home the Vince Lombardi Trophy, it’s not what we’re looking forward to the most. Like most people watching the game, we are tuning in for those iconic commercials! Universal is already giving us what we’re craving because they’ve dropped their Super Bowl Ad early.

That’s right, you can already watch a Super Bowl commercial before the game even starts on February 8th, 2026. Across their social media platforms, Universal Orlando shared a sneak peek at their “spot airing during the Big Game.”

The commercial follows a young boy through seasons of life as his older brother continuously calls him “Little Man.” He finally tells him he doesn’t want to be called that name, but it continues even as he stares up at the Universal Globe as their vacation begins. They rush into Super Nintendo World together as he shoves his brother aside, exclaiming, “Let me see!”

They’re both in awe of the park, but sometimes the younger brother might have to get on his tiptoes to see it all. His brother even tells him, “You’re too little.” He finally realizes he’s just tall enough to go onto the roller coaster Stardust Racers, but when the time comes, his older brother is looking a little apprehensive.

The ride the attraction together with the younger brother, grinning the entire time, and the older brother with his eyes shut tight. Once they’re leaving, the little brother hops up on a platform before rubbing his brother’s head, asking, “You good, Little Man?” The ad ends with the Universal Orlando logo and the tag line “This changes everything.” You can see the minute-long ad here.

In the caption, the company said, “We didn’t just revolutionize theme parks. We’ve changed everything you know about vacations forever.” After the opening of Epic Universe, we tend to agree with them! This ad certainly pulled on our heartstrings and just made us even more excited to see what other commercials we’ll get to watch this weekend.
