Star Wars Celebration unveiled thrilling new details for the upcoming The Mandalorian and Grogu-themed update for Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run, set to launch alongside the new movie. This update will introduce exciting new elements, including the ability for Engineers to take care of Grogu. Additionally, guests will have the opportunity to explore new planets like Coruscant, alongside familiar locations such as Tatooine, Bespin, and Endor, in a choose-your-own-adventure style storyline.

Scheduled for release on May 22, 2026, this update promises to take a different narrative path from The Mandalorian & Grogu movie while still featuring both Din Djarin and Grogu in engaging new ways. The story kicks off with Hondo Ohnaka discovering a high-stakes deal between ex-Imperial officers and pirates on Tatooine. Players will join forces with Mando and Grogu in a thrilling chase across the galaxy to track down these criminals and claim a bounty, immersing themselves in a dynamic, galaxy-spanning adventure.

While specifics are still under wraps, it's confirmed that Engineers will play a more significant role, as they will be responsible for looking after Grogu, adding an exciting new layer to the experience.

To delve deeper into what fans can anticipate, we had the pleasure of speaking with Asa Kalama from Walt Disney Imagineering. He shared insights into the interactive elements of the mission: "Throughout the mission, we're going to be giving the engineers the opportunity to actually get to communicate with Grogu," Kalama explained. "So, we think it's going to be a ton of fun. There may be times when Mando has to deboard the Razor Crest and Grogu, left to his own devices, might get a little happy on the control panel. So, we love the idea of there being these fun little vignettes and moments where you're sort of on the comm with Grogu."

Regarding the choose-your-own-adventure aspect, Kalama elaborated on the pivotal decision-making moments: "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. And that's going to be the sort of inciting incident that allows us to decide which are the different destinations we go to."
