Play Disney Parks app to offer new activities with the opening of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance
Distress Signal Received and Infiltrate Resistance Recruitment will be available from tomorrow.

The Play Disney Parks will offer two new experiences with the opening of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance on December 5 2019.

With your Star Wars: Datapad, you can choose to support either side by selecting new jobs within the app as you move through the Resistance clearing and towards attraction. Look for the new Star Destroyer icon in your Datapad to take on these new jobs.

Distress Signal Received

If you choose to help the Resistance you’ll receive a distress signal from Finn, who is undercover on a Star Destroyer near Batuu. Connect and help him navigate the ship by selecting his path – and you may even free Resistance prisoners, reprogram droids and gather information on what the First Order is up to on the way. Depending on the route you share with Finn, you’ll uncover items and schematics exclusive to this assignment.

Infiltrate Resistance Recruitment

Meanwhile, First Order loyalists entering the Resistance recruit line will be tasked with surveilling and reporting back on the status of Resistance supplies. You will be able to communicate with a First Order officer as you make your way through, and with her instruction you may choose to scan crates, intercept transmissions or even plant tracking devices from your Datapad.

Im sure its going to be a great ride, but IGN is basis for why people hate access media...They will give everything a 9 or up, just because Disney will cut them off if they don't. My favorite example was Collider when a podcast host didn't get invited to the GE preview, went on to complain how he was forced to be a Star Wars fan for 5 years, so he deserved a private trip.

They gave MFSR a 7, so that kind of disproves your point.

Well based on their video, that 9.5 might be low.

I have no doubt its going to be a sure fire AAA ride. My issue is that IGN is such a twisted, bought and sold organization, that it might as well call itself Disney/Marvel PR.
Two... more... weeks...

I just need to wait two more weeks.....

What am I supposed to do until then? My job?

So why did they give MFSR a 7?

Word on the street is seldom right about these things. Few people have actually seen the movie at this point. Similar things have been said about every single Disney Star Wars movie. One of the times when word on the street said that the movie felt forced together and didn't flow, and the movie was in trouble was Rogue One, which most people seem to agree was an excellent movie. So let's judge it on its own merits when it comes out.

But enough about Rise of Skywalker. This thread is about Rise of the Resistance, which looks like a masterpiece.
The ride has a musical soundtrack, totally ruins the immersion. ;)

I all seriousness, from what I have seen so far in the POV videos, it looks really impressive.

They were only doing it to fool Lloyd Braun!

It interesting ,the two videos show the two different elevators in the AT-AT room.
Just watched the Attractions Magazine video, where was the Kylo running at you part?
↩ replying to danlb_2000
That video was a little different from the ign one. It was on a slightly different path. You have a different pov in the at at room. I actually thought this one was a little better.
THAT RIDE....WOW

also STAR WARS MUSIC is in!
