The galaxy is filthy, and apparently the Rebellion is outsourcing. The PowerWash Simulator 2 Star Wars Pack now has a release date: July 16, 2026. The paid DLC will bring Star Wars grime, ships, locations, and deeply suspicious amounts of galactic dirt to FuturLab’s very satisfying cleaning simulator. The official Steam page for PowerWash Simulator 2: STAR WARS Pack lists the July 16 release date and confirms that the DLC requires the base game. So yes, this is real. Someone looked at Star Wars, a franchise famous for sand, grease, busted machinery, rebel hangars, Imperial metal, carbon scoring, and questionable maintenance standards, and correctly decided: this galaxy needs a pressure washer. Rebellions Are Built on Soap The Star Wars Pack is set during the events of the Original Trilogy and puts players in the role of P0-W2, a Class Five cleaning droid. According to FuturLab’s PowerWash Simulator 2 page, P0-W2…

Marcia Lucas, Oscar-Winning Star Wars Editor, Dies at 80
Marcia Lucas, the Academy Award-winning editor whose work helped shape the original Star Wars into one of cinema’s most enduring adventures, has died at the age of 80. According to the Associated Press, Lucas died in Rancho Mirage, California, after metastatic cancer. For Star Wars history, her name belongs among the essential behind-the-scenes artists who helped turn George Lucas’ space fantasy into something mythic, emotional, funny, fast, and deeply human. She was often introduced through her marriage to George Lucas, but that has never been the full story. Marcia Lucas was one of the key creative forces in the editing room where Star Wars found its rhythm, its tension, and, in many ways, its soul. The Editor Who Helped Shape Star Wars Marcia Lucas won the Academy Award for Best Film Editing for the original 1977 Star Wars, sharing the Oscar with Paul Hirsch and Richard Chew. That credit matters…
Michael Pennington, Return of the Jedi’s Moff Jerjerrod, Has Passed Away
Sad news from the Star Wars galaxy: Michael Pennington, the British actor who played Moff Tiaan Jerjerrod in Return of the Jedi, has passed away. Pennington was 82. For Star Wars viewers, he will always be remembered as the Imperial officer overseeing the second Death Star — the man who had to stand in front of Darth Vader and explain that construction was not moving fast enough. A bad work meeting, by any galactic standard. The Man Who Had to Explain Delays to Darth Vader Pennington’s Moff Jerjerrod appears early in Return of the Jedi, nervously overseeing construction of the second Death Star above Endor. The official StarWars.com Databank entry for Moff Jerjerrod describes him as the commander responsible for completing the battle station under impossible pressure from both Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine. It is a small role, but a memorable one. Jerjerrod is not Grand Moff Tarkin. He…
PowerWash Simulator 2 Is Getting a Star Wars Pack
There are many heroic jobs in the Star Wars galaxy. Jedi Knight. Rebel pilot. Mandalorian bounty hunter. Moisture farmer who somehow still gets dragged into galactic drama. And now, finally, the role destiny has been building toward since 1977: cleaning Imperial grime off very famous objects with a power washer. FuturLab has announced a new Star Wars Pack for PowerWash Simulator 2, bringing the galaxy far, far away into the deeply satisfying world of blasting dirt off things until your brain releases the happy chemicals. According to the official PowerWash Simulator 2 Star Wars Pack page, players step into the role of P0-W2, a Class Five cleaning droid dragged into a very dirty original trilogy adventure. Rebellions Are Built on Hope, and Soap The pack is set during the events of A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi, which means this is not some random…
Oga’s Cantina at Disneyland Is Closing Temporarily for an Original Trilogy-Themed Refurb
If you’re planning a trip to Disneyland’s Galaxy’s Edge anytime soon, here’s a heads-up Star Wars fans actually need to know: Oga’s Cantina is set to temporarily close for a refurbishment — and the theme is reportedly shifting toward the Original Trilogy era. So yes… your favorite place to sip a weird green drink while DJ R-3X does his thing is about to get a little makeover. And if the rumors are true, it’s going to lean more into the classic Star Wars vibe. Oga’s Cantina: Still One of Galaxy’s Edge’s Best Experiences Oga’s Cantina is one of the most “Star Wars” places you can visit without stepping onto a movie set. It’s loud, chaotic, packed, and borderline illegal-feeling — which is exactly what a real cantina should be. For years, the setting has been locked into the sequel trilogy era, consistent with the original Galaxy’s Edge concept: But lately,…
