"Star Wars Celebration has always been a place where fandom meets passion and we wanted to bring something to the show this year that our team is over the moon about," said Alyssa Finley, Executive Producer of Star Wars: Beyond Victory – A Mixed Reality Playset. "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 and the worlds we create at ILM. This new mixed reality experience blends the physical and digital worlds in a way that's unlike anything we've done before and we're so excited to share a special first look with our incredible Star Wars community."
