It’s been a long time coming, but Star Wars fans will soon get to see the seventh installment in the long-running franchise when Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens in theaters next month. While waiting for the theatrical release, fans living in Tokyo can experience the thrill of the series firsthand by venturing over to Tokyo Disneyland, where the Star Tours: The Adventures Continue attraction is now open to the public!
Star Tours: The Adventures Continue is located in the Tomorrowland section of Tokyo’s Disneyland theme park. The attraction lasts approximately four and a half minutes and involves a 3-D motion-simulated ride with over 50 possible story combinations, making it a great choice to check out over and over again.
Check out this sweet PR clip for the ride below, or scroll down for some screenshots:
▼ Familiar friends will guide you on your journey.
▼ Fun for the whole family to enjoy!
▼ Some screenshots of the 3-D visuals
