The ride
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is a long, multi-part adventure in Galaxy's Edge: a shuttle flight, a capture aboard a Star Destroyer, and an escape on a trackless ride that ends with a drop.
The story
The Resistance needs recruits. Rey briefs you by hologram, and you board a transport to join General Leia's forces. A First Order Star Destroyer captures the ship, and stormtroopers march you to a cell where Kylo Ren and General Hux want the location of the hidden base. Resistance fighters cut through the wall, and a reprogrammed droid drives you through the ship, past AT-ATs and Kylo Ren, to an escape pod home.
History
It was announced with Galaxy's Edge at the 2015 D23 Expo and opened December 5, 2019, three months after the rest of the land and six weeks before Disneyland's version. It strings together walkthrough scenes, a motion-simulator shuttle, a trackless dark ride and a hidden drop, with 65 Audio-Animatronics figures. Daisy Ridley, Oscar Isaac, John Boyega, Adam Driver and Domhnall Gleeson reprise their film roles.
Good to know
- Several story scenes come before the ride vehicle, so the whole thing takes longer than the posted wait.
- The only drop is short, in the escape pod at the end.
- There's a regular standby line; boarding groups ended in September 2021.
Look for
- Your vehicle's droid has orange eyes: the mark of a unit the Resistance has reprogrammed.
- In the hangar, mirrors turn two full-size AT-ATs into what looks like four.
