**Introducing MagicBand Plus: The Latest Upgrade to Disney's Revolutionary Wearable**

Imagine being able to immerse yourself in your favorite Disney experiences like never before. With the latest upgrade to Disney's iconic MagicBand, that dream is now a reality. Welcome to MagicBand Plus, the wearable technology designed to elevate your park adventure to new heights.

**Quests and Missions for the Resistance or First Order**

For Star Wars fans, MagicBand Plus brings an exciting new level of immersion. Not only can you wear a custom-designed band featuring your favorite characters from the galaxy far, far away, but you'll also have access to quests and missions that let you play both sides of the battle. Whether you're joining forces with the Resistance or the First Order, MagicBand Plus is the perfect companion for any Star Wars fan.

**The Fab 50 Quest: A Magical Adventure Around Walt Disney World**

But MagicBand Plus isn't just limited to Star Wars enthusiasts. For those who love a little bit of magic in their lives, there's another mission to play – the Fab 50 Quest. This activity lets you search for Golden Statues around Walt Disney World, with your MagicBand Plus serving as your trusty guide. As you get close to each statue, your band will start to vibrate, and you'll need to wave your hand to unlock Tinkerbell's magic. The more statues you collect, the more rewards and interactions become available in the Disney Parks app.

**Available Designs and Interactivity**

MagicBand Plus is available in 16 different designs, ranging from basic solid colors to character-themed bands featuring beloved characters like Mickey Mouse or Stormtroopers. But what really sets these bands apart is their interactivity. With MagicBand Plus, you'll have access to a range of activities and experiences that go beyond the traditional wear-and-wear experience.

**Charging and Battery Life**

One of the most convenient features of MagicBand Plus is its charging capabilities. The band comes fully charged out of the box, but like any wearable device, you may find yourself needing to top off the battery during your vacation. Don't worry – simply plug it in when you're back in your hotel room, and it'll be ready to go again.

**Water Resistance and Durability**

MagicBand Plus is still fully waterproof, just like its predecessor. So whether you're lounging by the pool or splashing around at the water park, your MagicBand Plus will stay safe and secure on your wrist.

**Amazon's Alexa Integration**

In a major upgrade to its wearable technology, Disney has announced that MagicBand Plus will now work seamlessly with Amazon's Alexa voice assistant. This integration promises to bring even more interactivity and personalization to your park experience. With MagicBand Plus, you'll be able to tap into a whole new world of possibilities – from receiving messages from friends and family back home to accessing exclusive experiences and rewards.

**The Future of Theme Park Entertainment**

MagicBand Plus represents a bold new direction for theme park entertainment. By incorporating wearable technology and interactive experiences into the park experience, Disney is setting a new standard for immersive fun. And with its integration with Alexa, we can expect even more innovative features to emerge in the future.

**Coming Soon: Disneyland and Amazon Integration**

While MagicBand Plus will initially be available only at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, it's heading to Disneyland in California soon. In fact, this will be the first time a MagicBand has ever been introduced at Disneyland. As for the full range of features and integrations available on MagicBand Plus, we'll just have to wait and see – but one thing is clear: Disney is pushing the boundaries of what's possible with wearable technology.

**Pricing and Availability**

While an official price point hasn't been announced yet, it's expected that MagicBand Plus will be priced slightly higher than its predecessor. However, with the range of designs available and the sheer number of interactivity options on offer, we think this upgrade is well worth the investment.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: endisney has leveled up its high-tech wristband this is magicband plus it lights up it plays games i'm going to tell you all about it and how it works so disney set up this little demo area to give us a taste but it's not working yet in the parks and i'm so curious to really get a full experience and see what it's like magic bands have been around walt disney world since 2013. these are rfid bands that hold info on your ticket and activities for the day you can use them to tap to enter a park enter your hotel room it also knows when you have a reservation to bypass long ride lines now these bands are not necessary to get around the park but they have been used by disney to add little interactive perks in some areas a good example of this is at star wars galaxy's edge depending on what you do on the rides or in the land your server at the cantina may get an alert and mention something to you about your day this upgrade takes it up a notch by giving you something to wear to play particular games it buzzes and lights up to clue you into something that you can do nearby there will be missions all over the park in particular there is one at star wars galaxy's edge that's the land of the two where you can do a job for the two bounty hunters guild you would take your magic band over to a job board this is by the garage area and when you go there you'll have to tap your band to an activation area to kind of get started on your mission at this point you'll get messages in your play disney parks app to tell you who they're on the lookout for and how to hunt them down and really you're just kind of walking around seeing if you're close or far based on how this thing is flashing green means you're getting warmer and red is going to mean that maybe you're getting too far away now when you've arrived at the right place and have found the droid you're looking for or the alien creature you're looking for you know general scum and villainy then you'll get an alert on your band it'll vibrate it'll light up you'll get a push alert on your app and i'll tell you what to do next you don't know what kind of mission you're going to get each time and it'll be a different door for every mission so not everyone's going to be crowding around the same area but in this case if my guy is behind this door let's scan it come on show yourself whoa there's a big guy hello there yeah yeah i got you i got you found jagga he comes from jakku nothing good comes from so if you're running around and maybe you're having a hard time there's going to be a lot of different push notifications different elements that they're trying to kind of nudge you along because they don't want you just wandering around the whole day with different color lights so the app will work in different ways if you want to just restart or get a new job you can do that too and through the play disney parks app it's going to clue you in on where to accept a job so if you're new to the area you don't have to wander around lost this is not the only new twist to magic bands recently i saw a similar experience be incorporated at disney's galactic star cruiser that's the two night star wars hotel the immersive theater experience and i have a whole video you can check out here about that now as a guest you used both the magic band and the play app to go on quests and do missions for the resistance or the first order but this magic band plus with bounty hunting adds a level of immersiveness which is going to be available to anyone visiting the theme park not just for people who pay extra to experience the star cruiser there's another mission to play disney parks app it's the fab 50 quest or you have to go find these golden statues around walt disney world and if you get close enough your magic band will kind of go off and you have to oh there you go so now i'm getting a little vibration and i have to wave my hand and spread tinkerbell's magic gosh sure is a nice day there you go and the more of these you go around and collect you'll be able to do different ar things in the app so it's just more interactivity and more entertainment as you go about your day so these are the 16 different designs that will be available to buy when it goes on sale in the summer some are pretty basic with a solid color others have different characters different sayings designs my particular favorites are going to be the one that's themed for star wars galaxy's edge because it just kind of looks cool i also like the retro throwback but no matter you know what you pick they're all going to be able to do all the activities it's going to come fully charged out of the box but depending on how much you're using it on your vacation you're probably going to want to top off the battery when you're back in your room so you would just plug it in and snap it in there will be instructions inside i'm told that will tell you that if it's flashing a certain color light you'll know that the battery's low yes this is still waterproof just like the old version so you can still wear it when you're at the hotel pool there's another new twist to this magicband plus works with amazon's voice assistant but we don't know how yet disney is not giving examples but i do have some ideas if you stay at a disney property hotel later this year in florida they're going to have these echo show 5 devices with their own special assistant called hey disney so if i get in the room and this is going to work with alexa what's it going to tell my device is it going to let me know hey i saw you do all those quests in the park today is it going to react maybe to all the credits i earned at galaxy's edge is it going to say hey you you found mickey today in the mickey statue what exactly is this pairing with alexa and also i hope to see a lot more than just statues and star wars galaxy's edge in terms of interactivity they say it's going to be able to work at the night shows maybe it'll flash in certain ways and kind of match the lighting of whatever show you're at it would be so cool if like you're in line for a ride and something happens in the pre-show and you get a buzz that kind of brings it all together there's a lot of potential here to be able to level up different moments in your park experience especially when you're waiting in these long lines you want some fun things to do i would love to be able to maybe buzz and tap different things if i'm waiting in an hour long or more line so we still have to see what else to come as far as pricing goes disney is not saying the exact price yet it could be a range there was a day where it went on sale for just a few hours and was taken down and some of the plain colors the solid colors they were 29.99 but it could cost more if there's a character right now the magic bands that are on sale do have a range of prices to find out what character is on the band by making this another gadget you have to charge but also giving you a new way to play games in the parks this is interesting that disney's kind of leading the way and doing more interactivity having more tech as part of your vacation so i'm looking forward to seeing what else they can do and i am interested in how other theme park companies how other entertainment venues may look at this and go hey you know what people are more welcome to have a wearable and go around and experience and use technology to kind of enhance their entertainment now magic band plus is coming to disneyland in california that park has never had a magic band before when it comes to florida they have had magic bands and that upgrade will be coming sometime in the summer no exact date yet i'm looking forward to seeing where they can take this if you have ideas on what they can do with magic bands in the park let me know in the comments in the meantime hit like and subscribe for more thanks for
