The DIS has shared their video of the climactic lightsaber battle between Rey and Kylo Ren on Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser. In this video, we can see the “real” lightsaber wielded by Rey.

Footage today is being released from media previews for the Galactic Starcruiser. Stay tuned for full, detailed coverage and reviews when we board the first public “flight” on March 1.
