Journey to Batuu was announced as the next pack on August 27th 2020. After they announced it a lot of the community was off put by the game pack, after all most of us are wanting more realistic aspects to the game. For those who don’t know, Batuu is the planet where Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland and Disneyworld takes place. The game pack was released to everyone on September 8th 2020, adding a vacational world for your sims to experience their own hand at Galaxy’s edge. Once you choose to go to Batuu you will see that there are 3 different districts, Resistance Encampment, Blackspire Outpost, and First Order Sector.
When choosing one of the sectors you will have the chance to become a part of the Resistance, a Scoundrel, or a First Order officer. Depending on what you choose you get different interactions! For instance if you choose to join the Resistance you will get to meet Rey Skywalker and fly the X-wing that is displayed in the forest. But if you choose to be a Scoundrel you instead meet Hondo Ohnaka and fly the Millennium Falcon in blackspire outpost. Lastly, if you choose to join the First Order you meet Kylo Ren and fly the Tie-Echelon displayed on the launch pad. Whichever choice you make on what sector you join, the missions are extremely fun and provide an exciting feeling for you. Even if you aren’t a Star Wars fan, I recommend the pack when it’s on sale if you don’t intend on playing it much.
One of the things I love about this pack is that your Sims can find Kyber Crystals during their travels and with those you can make lightsabers. The lightsaber function is amazing and I love seeing them train and battle each other. However, if you don’t want to wait once you get enough credits to spend, you can buy a blue and green Kyber Crystal at Savi’s Workshop, along with the hilts for them! Your Sims can also bring home Astromech Droids, a very important companion to any character from Star Wars. You also can get a BB unit if you prefer the sphere look for the droids! Droids also have the ability to get a personality chip, they sound different and you can hold conversations with them! The personality chip you get depends on which sector you joined, so keep that in mind! I hope this was helpful if you weren’t sure about the pack!
