Industrial Light & Magic and Lucasfilm are developing the experience exclusively for Meta Quest 3 and 3S headsets. The “heart-pumping and engine-thrumping” experience will feature a variety of unique modes. Users meet up-and-comer Volo Bolus and join podracer pilot Sebulba in a story set around the time of “Solo: A Star Wars Story.”

A mixed reality game blends elements of both the real and virtual worlds, allowing players to interact with both simultaneously.

Star Wars Celebration Japan 2025 attendees will be the first fans to experience “Beyond Victory.” The activation will be open at the ILM and Meta Quest booth, #20-5 in Hall 4. There will be over a dozen playable Quest stations with a first look at “Beyond Victory” as well as demos for “Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series” and “Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge.”

We’re beyond excited to share an early look at this new experience with the incredible ‘Star Wars’ community at Star Wars Celebration this year. Our goal at ILM has always been to find new and exciting ways for players to experience ‘Star Wars’ stories. Focusing on mixed reality has opened several fascinating doors from an immersion standpoint and allows us to literally bring a galaxy far, far away right into the comfort of players’ homes in a way that’s unlike anything we’ve done before.

An original “Star Wars: Beyond Victory” comic from Marvel will also delve into the game’s story. It will only be available through a giveaway at the ILM and Meta Quest booth during Star Wars Celebration Japan. The cover art is by Phil Noto while the story is written by Ethan Sacks, with interior illustrations by Will Sliney, Steven Cummings, and Shogo Aoki.

Star Wars Celebration is at the Makuhari Messe convention center from April 18 – 20. Check out the Star Wars Celebration Japan panel schedule.
