Hyperspace Mountain Returns!
Launch Into a Starfighter Battle
Fend off cross fire from swarms of New Republic X-wing starfighters and Imperial TIE fighters amidst a galactic onslaught!
Your mission begins with a briefing from Admiral Ackbar: the New Republic needs help flying reconnaissance vessels to survey an Imperial Star Destroyer. After being escorted into hyperspace by an elite X-wing squadron, you arrive only to find the Star Destroyer waiting with a swarm of TIE fighters—it’s a trap!
As starfighter forces valiantly battle Imperial vessels, you’re caught up in a barrage of cannon fire. Maneuvers become more intense as you join the New Republic squadron for one final, courageous assault on the menacing Star Destroyer. It’s an epic Star Warscombat scene taken straight from the films—but hurry, Hyperspace Mountain is only open for a limited time!
Meet Some of Your Favorite Characters!
As you explore the unpredictable streets of Black Spire Outpost in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Egde, be on the lookout for some familiar faces. Maybe you’ll meet up with the brave Wookiee warrior, Chewbacca. Or you could bump into the fearsome bounty hunter, Boba Fett, who has arrived on an undisclosed mission. Here are some other Characters you might have the pleasure—or peril—of meeting in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge:
- Fennec Shand
- First Order stormtroopers
- Kylo Ren
- R2-D2
- Rey
- Vi Moradi
See the Mandalorian and Grogu
You might even spot the Mandalorian, a battle-worn bounty hunter in a special suit of armor. His journey has brought him and his charge—a mysterious child called Grogu—to the outpost.
Star Tours – The Adventures Continue
Visit a Galaxy Far, Far Away
When your Starspeeder accidentally starts up without a pilot, tour guide C-3PO takes the controls.
At launch, you’ll barely escape a showdown with the menacing Kylo Ren—or you’ll race through a Stormtrooper checkpoint, with Rey leading the way in the Millennium Falcon.
With the First Order in pursuit, you’ll embark on a thrilling, unpredictable flight that rockets you to the farthest reaches of the galaxy.
Speed to the ocean moon Kef Bir. Receive an urgent transmission from Lando Calrissian. Then hold on tight as your ship hurtles through a climactic interstellar battle.
Come celebrate Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker in a new Star Tours experience, where you’ll encounter iconic characters and visit distant worlds immortalized by the saga.
