Additional details revealed through updated official descriptions 

In addition to the new photo and video, Disney has also updated the official description for this ride to include some new details about the kind of adventure guests will be going on when they board this new attraction:

This harrowing adventure will blur the lines between fantasy and reality and will put you in the middle of a climactic battle between the First Order and the Resistance. You will join the Resistance and depart from Batuu in a transport ship to meet General Leia Organa at a secret rendezvous point. Along the way, however, you will be captured by a First Order Star Destroyer. The action then ramps up as you seek to escape the clutches of Kylo Ren and the First Order – with the help of some heroes of the Resistance.

 

 

Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance will be one of the most ambitious, advanced and immersive experiences ever undertaken by Walt Disney Imagineering. The attraction is also one of the largest Disney has ever created. Its massive show building is a world unto itself, housing two full-size AT-AT walkers and a Star Destroyer hangar bay – complete with a TIE fighter and a garrison of Stormtroopers – plus more thrills and surprises.

Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance will have its grand opening on December 5th in Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Resort and in Disneyland Park at Disneyland Resort on January 17th. As of right now, FastPass+ reservations are not available, and, just like with Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run, are not in the works for the foreseeable future.
