==Development==
The book was first announced as a part of the Journey to Star Wars: The Last Jedi multimedia project, set to be released before the film. It was later pushed to December 15 to coincide with the release of film, and the "Journey to Star Wars: The Last Jedi" banner was removed from the cover. However, the book did not meet that release date either.
On February 16, 2018, it was announced that the book would come out on May 25 of that year, coinciding with the release of Solo: A Star Wars Story, which the newest cover reflected.
