A Galaxy Worth Scrubbing: PowerWash Simulator 2's Star Wars Pack Locks In a July Release Date

FuturLab's relaxing power-washing sequel is heading to a galaxy far, far away. A new trailer revealed at IGN Live 2026 confirms the PowerWash Simulator 2: Star Wars Pack arrives July 16, 2026, letting players blast the grime off original-trilogy icons like the Lars Homestead, Chalmun's Cantina, X-Wings, AT-ATs, and the bridge of a Super Star Destroyer.

There's a fresh layer of grime settling over a galaxy far, far away — and a class-five labor droid ready to blast it clean. At IGN Live 2026, attendees got their first look at a new trailer for the PowerWash Simulator 2: Star Wars Pack, the soothing crossover that turns one of gaming's most meditative pastimes loose on the most lived-in universe in pop culture. The verdict from the show floor: this filthy corner of the original trilogy is finally getting the deep clean it deserves on July 16, 2026.

What Is the PowerWash Simulator 2: Star Wars Pack?

If you've never lost an evening to it, PowerWash Simulator is exactly what it sounds like: a zen, oddly addictive game about hosing dirt off everything from patios to playgrounds. Developer FuturLab turned the original 2022 release into a cult hit, and its sequel, PowerWash Simulator 2, doubles down on that satisfying, stress-melting loop. This Star Wars Pack drops that fantasy straight into the original trilogy era — and trust us, after decades of dusty deserts and smoke-filled hangars, there's plenty to scrub.

Players take control of P0-W2, a class-five labor droid with a pressure washer where a blaster might otherwise go. As the game's tongue-in-cheek pitch goes: when George Lucas created Star Wars, he gave it a "used future" aesthetic — dirt, grime, and grease rarely seen in the clean sci-fi of its era — so sometimes you simply have to look at your filthy Gonk droid and realize it's time to wash that sucker.

Iconic Original Trilogy Locations You'll Power Wash

The new trailer offered fresh glimpses of the locations and vehicles you'll restore to their former glory, all pulled from the classic trilogy that defined the franchise. For longtime fans, it plays like a greatest-hits tour of the saga's grungiest, most beloved corners:

• The Lars Homestead — Luke Skywalker's sun-bleached moisture farm on Tatooine
• Chalmun's Cantina — the famously rough Mos Eisley watering hole, "a wretched hive of scum and villainy"
• X-Wing starfighters — the Rebellion's workhorse fighters, swamp muck and all
• AT-AT walkers — the towering Imperial behemoths from the Battle of Hoth
• The bridge of a Super Star Destroyer — and you'll want it spotless before Lord Vader returns to inspect the work

Release Date and Platforms

The Star Wars Pack arrives as paid DLC for PowerWash Simulator 2 across every major platform, landing the same day on consoles, PC, and Nintendo's newest hardware.

Why Fans Are Buzzing

Star Wars has no shortage of high-stakes games — sprawling RPGs, dogfighting sims, lightsaber-swinging adventures. What it hasn't had is permission to simply slow down and appreciate the texture of George Lucas's universe one square foot at a time. That's the quiet genius of this crossover: it celebrates the very thing that made Star Wars feel real in 1977, the grime, and hands fans a hose to fuss over it lovingly. For a fandom that pores over every panel line and weathering detail, a game built entirely around restoring those surfaces is weirdly perfect. Mark your calendar for July 16 — the galaxy's dirtiest jobs are about to become its most relaxing.
