One highlight was the reveal of “Star Wars Zero Company,” a single-player turn-based tactics game set for release in 2026.
Celebrating 50 years in Los Angeles
ILM also shared details about “Star Wars: Beyond Victory,” a mixed-reality experience for Meta Quest.
As the franchise approaches its 50th anniversary, anticipation is building for the 2027 celebration. Fans are eager to come together and celebrate half a century of Star Wars magic in Los Angeles. The choice of Los Angeles as the host city holds special significance.
It not only offers a historic backdrop but also acknowledges the franchise’s enduring legacy in the entertainment industry. Leading up to 2027, Lucasfilm has a busy schedule. The company will be navigating the aftermath of its 2026 releases while preparing for the highly anticipated Star Wars movie directed by Shawn Levy, set to release the same year as the celebration.
With no major competing conventions scheduled during the same dates, Star Wars Celebration 2027 is poised to be a focal point for fans. This allows for full engagement and attendance, ensuring an immersive Star Wars experience for all. As detailed plans for the event are yet to be unveiled, fans are encouraged to stay tuned for more information in the coming months and years.
