🚀 Hold onto your helmets, Star Wars fans! ILM just spilled the beans on their Star Wars: Beyond Victory mixed reality playset for Meta Quest, and it’s not just a game—it’s a whole new galaxy of fun. (Seriously, where was this when we were kids?) At the Star Wars Celebration 2025, they dropped a fresh video teasing the gameplay and that sweet, sweet mixed reality magic. And guess what? Podracing’s the star of the show with three ways to play: Adventure, Arcade, and Playset. Each one’s a ticket to your own Star Wars saga.
Adventure mode? It’s your chance to ride shotgun with Volo, a rookie podracer learning the ropes from none other than Sebulba (yeah, the one who cheats). It’s a wild mix of virtual and mixed reality that’ll have you living out your podracing dreams. Arcade mode turns your living room into a high-speed track with a virtual holotable, and Playset mode? That’s where you get to play director, crafting your own Star Wars stories with action figures and vehicles you unlock along the way. Because who doesn’t want to be the master of their own Star Wars universe?
“We’re calling this a Playset because it isn’t just a game; it’s an entirely new way to experience the Star Wars galaxy,” says ILM. And honestly, we couldn’t agree more.
Okay, so the first look didn’t make everyone lose their minds, but come on—mixed reality’s a tough crowd, and new Star Wars stuff is always a big deal. Price and release date are still under wraps, but you can already slap it on your wishlist over at the Meta Horizon store. Here’s hoping the mixed reality force is as strong as the hype!
