Star Wars Launch Bay: Star Wars Launch Bay is a brand new location that takes the place of Innoventions. In this new attraction, guests will be able to interact with their favorite characters such as Darth Vader and Chewbacca, hear from directors and designers of the latest Star Wars installments, and explore exhibits chalk full of props, costumes, and artwork from both the films and the animated series. Some of these props include ships from Episode VII, Stormtrooper armor, Rebel flight helmets, and Sith and Jedi light sabers. Guests will even be able to play games based on the Star Wars films such as Disney Infinity or Star Wars Battlefront.
