The Mandalorian and Grogu-Themed Update to Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run Will Let Engineers Take Care of Grogu - Star Wars Celebration

by Natalie Apr 23,2025

Star Wars Celebration has unveiled thrilling new details for the upcoming *The Mandalorian and Grogu*-themed update to *Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run*, set to launch alongside the new movie. This update promises an immersive experience, allowing Engineers to take care of Grogu while introducing a new planet, Coruscant, to the mix. Alongside Coruscant, players will have the chance to explore Tatooine, Bespin, and Endor in this engaging choose-your-own-adventure-style storyline.

Scheduled for release on May 22, 2026, this update will offer a unique narrative path distinct from the *The Mandalorian & Grogu* movie. Yet, it will still prominently feature both Din Djarin and Grogu. The story kicks off with Hondo Ohnaka discovering a secretive deal on Tatooine between former Imperial officers and pirates, sparking a high-stakes chase across the galaxy. Guests will join forces with Mando and Grogu to track down the culprits and claim a bounty, making for a dynamic, galaxy-spanning adventure.

Although complete details are yet to be disclosed, it's clear that Engineers will play a more significant role, tasked with caring for Grogu. What could be more exciting than that?

To delve deeper into what fans can expect, we had the opportunity to speak with Walt Disney Imagineering's Asa Kalama. He shared some intriguing insights about the upcoming mission.

"Throughout the mission, we're going to be giving the engineers the opportunity to actually get to communicate with Grogu," Kalama revealed. "So, we think it's going to be a ton of fun. There may be times when Mando has to deboard the Razor Crest, leaving Grogu to his own devices, who might get a little too excited with the control panel. We love the idea of these fun little vignettes and moments where you're sort of on the comm with Grogu."

Regarding the choose-your-own-adventure element, Kalama explained that there will be "a critical moment in your adventure where you are strapped for time and have to make a lightning-quick decision about which of our particular bounties we want to pursue. This decision will be the inciting incident that allows us to choose which different destinations we'll visit."
