Explore Jakku in this awesome, new Star Wars: The Force Awakens video

A new "immersive 360 experience" has been created and shared by the official Star Wars Facebook, allowing fans to explore the new desert planet of Jakku.

For those unfamiliar, Jakku is one of the new planets in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Following the Battle of Jakku (which fans can experience in Star Wars Battlefront), the planet became a "home of thieves, outlaws, and scavengers." Based on early teasers for the film, it also looks like the planet where Finn, Rey, BB-8 (and possibly Han Solo and Chewbacca) meet.

This new first-person video takes you on an immersive tour of the ship graveyard, giving you a first-hand look at the aftermath of the iconic battle that took place one year after the Battleof Endor. Enjoy the ride in the video below.
