Big news, pinball fans — and Star Wars fans too!
We’re bringing the galaxy far, far away straight to Bedford, TX with Stern Pinball’s brand-new machine: Star Wars: Fall of the Empire. And yes, you’ll be able to play it right here at Time Rift Arcade very soon!
What’s the Hype?
This isn’t your average pinball machine. Fall of the Empire drops you right into the action of Return of the Jedi, complete with massive battles, iconic moments, and a playfield loaded with Star Wars magic.
Here’s a taste of what you’ll find:
- A motorized AT-AT Walker stomping across the battlefield
- A Death Star II toy that opens up mid-game (and yes, you’ll want to blow it up!)
- A swirling Sarlacc Pit whirlpool target ready to devour your ball
- A Millennium Falcon and a whole cast of sculpted goodies, from Jabba the Hutt to Darth Vader’s helmet
And get this… the Premium and LE versions even come with a magnetic “Force Ball Saver” in the outlane, because sometimes the Force really is with you. And at Time Rift Arcade, we always buy the premium!
Next-Gen Pinball
Stern packed this one with brand-new tech, too:
- A huge 18.5″ HD screen for animations and score info
- Upgraded audio that makes John Williams’ soundtrack sound incredible 🎶
- Custom callouts from C-3PO himself (voiced by Chris Bartlett)
Trust us, this game doesn’t just play great — it feels like Star Wars.
Play It at Time Rift Arcade
The best part? You won’t need to buy one to play it (though if you’ve got room for a pinball machine at home, we salute you). Just grab your day pass or monthly membership, head over to Time Rift Arcade, and you’ll be flipping lightspeed fast.
We’ve got over 100 other classic and modern games, but we have a feeling Fall of the Empire is about to be a new crowd favorite.
Coming soon to the floor at Time Rift Arcade — keep an eye on our socials for the official drop date.
