Star Tours Provides First Peek at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Planet

This morning, guests on Star Tours – The Adventures Continue boarded Starspeeders at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disneyland park to discover a thrilling new journey to the farthest reaches of space and found themselves landing unexpectedly on a planet in the outer rim of the Star Wars galaxy – a planet known to C-3PO, and now to us, as Batuu. While Batuu may be new to us, it is familiar to many characters from the Star Wars saga as a stepping off point for epic adventures.


This remote outpost on the galaxy’s edge was once a busy crossroads along the old sub-lightspeed trade routes, but its prominence was bypassed by the rise of hyperspace travel. Now home to those who prefer to stay out of the mainstream, it has become a thriving port for smugglers, rogue traders and adventurers traveling between the frontier and uncharted space. It’s also a convenient safe haven for those intent on avoiding the expanding reach of the First Order. 


Guests visiting the new Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge themed lands will be able to actually walk around this outpost in 2019.
