Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run at Hollywood Studios is getting some major upgrades on May 22nd. The ride will get multiple new destinations inspired by classic Star Wars films and the brand-new The Mandalorian & Grogu movie!

We thought the role of an engineer was pretty boring – you just sit there and press a few buttons; it’s nowhere near as immersive as pilot or gunner. We just rode the new version of Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run early, and now we can say the engineer role is our new favorite spot!
In this new version of the ride, you join Hondo to smuggle some cargo when it turns out that The Mandalorian and Grogu need our help! You’ll go on a bounty hunt with the duo to catch a bounty target – you can track down an imperial officer or a pirate, and they’re all on Tatooine together. Once you get to Tatooine, they split up and start flying in different directions. The engineer shoots homing signals on them, and you can tell where they’re headed.
We have to help them on their bounty hunt!
In this new version, the right engineer can pick the location your group goes to! One imperial soldier is headed to Coruscant, the second imperial soldier is going to Bespin, and the pirate visits the Death Star wreckage. The engineer gets to choose which bounty to follow, and that’s what determines which mission you go on!
Coruscant
Grogu is there the whole time, whether he’s scared of the fighting or holding hands with Mando, and you can communicate with Grogu the entire ride. But in typical Baby Yoda fashion, he’s hitting random buttons, and it’s your job to fix it! The role is now part fixer, part babysitter, and we loved how fresh it made the engineer.
Grogu is right next to the engineer!
The engineer role is our new favorite on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. Now that we’ve experienced the new version, we think the gunner role is the least interesting; the engineer has become just as immersive as the pilot, while the gunner hasn’t received any upgrades.
