There’s something deeply relaxing about chucking on a solid pair of headphones, listening to some good music and cleaning muck off structures and vehicles. Not in real life, though. Heavens, no. PowerWash Simulator 2 lets you do that without having to deal with any actual muck — as long as you’re regularly cleaning your keyboard or controller, anyway.
You’ll soon be able to carry out powerwashing jobs in six more locations, all of which are in a galaxy far, far away. In the game’s upcoming Star Wars expansion, you can visit the likes of Tatooine and Hoth to clean the Lars homestead, an X-wing and a Star Destroyer bridge.

Developer FuturLab has created an exclusive powerwasher for these levels, in which you’ll play as a labor droid called P0-W2. You can take on the jobs with up to four friends. Expect a bunch of Easter eggs too.
FuturLab says the expansion is set during the original Star Wars trilogy. You’ll first be taking on work for the Galactic Empire before defecting to the Rebel Alliance (so you’ll literally be dealing with Rebel scum).
The studio has previously brought other franchises into the fold. Those who own the first PowerWash Simulator can snag the Final Fantasy and Tomb Raider expansions for free before they’re delisted at 10AM ET on May 19. There are also Back to the Future and Shrek expansions for the original game.
The Star Wars expansion is coming to PowerWash Simulator 2 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch 2 this summer. It’ll cost $10. In the meantime, spare a thought for those poor contractors whose jobs the P0-W2 droids are taking:
