A new trailer for LEGO Star Wars: Summer Vacation has been released, featuring Emperor Palpatine enjoying the sun. The holiday special reportedly focuses on the characters of Rey, Finn, Poe, Chewbacca and Rose after the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Tired after the final battle against Palpatine, the group of misfit heroes decides to take an impromptu vacation which, predictably, does not go according to plan.

As demonstrated in the new teaser trailer from the official Star Wars Instagram page, the special is set to feature some unexpected faces including Kylo Ren, C-3PO, Anakin Skywalker and Darth Maul. Though briefly referencing the events of The Rise of Skywalker a narrator describes the group’s upcoming vacation as their “greatest escape” to date. Flashing between scenes of space travel, partying, and Darth Vader applying Emperor Palpatine’s sun lotion on a tropical beach, Summer Vacation seems to promise as much chaotic fun as previous LEGO Star Wars titles. Check out the trailer below:
