2. The ride's story will tie back to animated Star Wars series

While Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge doesn't seem rooted in any specific time period, the story of the ride will give guests a mission from Hondo Ohnaka, who is a character from the Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels animated series. Though specifics have not been shared just yet, the mission will involve bringing back some kind of bounty, and guests will have a very good reason to try their best to accomplish this goal... 

3. Your performance will affect your experience in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge

According to an Imagineer interviewed on the DVD, guests who bring back their bounty and fly the ship expertly without a lot of damage will be able to earn extra Galactic Credits, which will change the way characters in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge interact with them. Conversely, guests who lose the bounty or damage the ship will end up owing money, which will also produce different interactions with characters.

As mentioned previously, guests who visit Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge will essentially be starring in their own Star Wars adventure, and this attraction seems like it will be a key facet of building each guest's land-wide story.

Though we still don't have an official name for this new attraction, we definitely know a lot about what this new ride will be like, and it sounds like it is definitely worthy of anchoring this immersive new land. With tons of interactive elements and the ability to extend the ride experience into the larger Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge experience, this is definitely going to be an amazing experience when it opens in just over a year. Are you excited for this new attraction?
