History
Resorts World station opened on 1 February 2010. The station remained closed ever since the Sentosa Express first started operating 15 January 2007, as the surrounding Resorts World Sentosa was still under construction. In 2008, the unopened station was dismantled and rebuilt in anticipation of large crowds expected after the opening of the Resorts World Sentosa Integrated Resort.
The station was renamed to Resorts World station on 1 April 2019.
