Superman Experience: Defenders Unite at Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood

Superman Experience: Defenders Unite opened on 18 April 2026 on Stage 5 of the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank. It is a game you walk through, not a ride, Warner Bros says. You arrive 30 minutes early at 3400 Warner Boulevard, go through a metal detector, show photo ID, and enter from the ground floor of the Tour Center, from where NBC Los Angeles reported that a shuttle carries guests to Stage 5.

You are recruited in teams of up to 6, given active 3D glasses and choose an avatar. For about 25 minutes the game reads your movements through motion detection as you cross continents with Superman and Krypto, unlocking Kryptonian powers and ending in a fight alongside Superman against a DC Super-Villain. It adapts its challenges to how you play, Warner Bros says. There is no equipment to bring, and groups larger than 6 are split for the first half.

The second part is the Fortress of Solitude, which you roam at your own pace for the rest of the hour. It has mini games, props and photo stops, a life-sized audio-animatronic robot called Gary, a Doghouse of Solitude selfie stop and a game of catch with Krypto, a two-player Phantom Zone Projector puzzle and a lounge with drinks and themed snacks. The shop is for ticket holders only. There is also a commemorative team photo. You cannot replay the game on the same ticket, and once you leave the Fortress you cannot return.

It relates to the Studio Tour in one way only: they share a lot. The Superman-only ticket covers no backlot or guided tour; the Warner Bros ticket page calls it Superman Experience only and no tour. Add the tour and the order is fixed, Fever and Warner Bros say: the guided part of the Studio Tour first, then the Superman Experience by shuttle, then the self-guided part of the tour.

Superman Experience held 4.78 from 367 reviews on Fever on 10 November 2026, and it is a way to spend an hour on the Warner Bros lot without buying a tour. Its nearest rival is the lot’s own Studio Tour, held at 4.79 from 101 reviews on Fever, from 79 dollars for adults and 68 for children, about 3 hours long; choose the Studio Tour for soundstages and sets, and this for something to play with the children. TCM Classic Films Tour is 4.3 on Fever from 99 dollars and suits film history readers. If you want another Hollywood evening, see our Candlelight concerts page or the Black Rabbit Rose magic show.

You do not need a Studio Tour ticket, and buying direct makes no difference to the price. Warner Bros lists Superman only from 39 dollars on its own ticket page, and its Book Now button opens this same Fever listing; the Superman Experience site names Fever as its ticketing partner, and sends Superman-only ticket questions to Fever. If you also want the tour, buy the bundle Warner Bros sells on its own site, from 99 dollars, against about 118 for the from prices of the two bought separately; Warner Bros also says you can add a tour to a Superman ticket, or Superman to a tour ticket, by contacting its call centre.

The Garland in Studio City is the closest of our hotels, 8 minutes by taxi, and The Hollywood Roosevelt is 11 minutes. From Santa Monica and Malibu it is 31 to 47 minutes without traffic, and from Terranea in Palos Verdes 62.
