In just a few episodes, The Mandalorian has already added four new planets to Star Wars lore. Here are all the planets visited by Mando.

One of the many ways The Mandalorian is building onto the Star Wars mythos is through introducing new planets. The Disney+ series is paying tribute to the original trilogy by including various aliens, locations, and concepts that are easily recognized by fans. However, nostalgia hasn't been The Mandalorian's only appeal. The Mandalorian is creating its own additions to the lore. So like the planets and aliens from the Skywalker Saga and the two spinoff movies, the places and characters that appear in The Mandalorian could return in Star Wars comics, video games, and cartoons.

Similar to science fiction shows set like Stargate SG-1 and Star Trek, The Mandalorian doesn't remain in one place for very long. Each episode takes the main character, played by Pedro Pascal, to a different location in the Star Wars universe. Every episode is another chapter in Mando's story, as he travels from one place to another, with Baby Yoda in tow. Mando's exploits are taking viewers all over the galaxy. In one particular episode, The Mandalorian visited Tatooine, an iconic planet in the Star Wars movies, as well as the place where the story of the Skywalker Saga began.

The Mandalorian is doing much more than simply revisiting familiar locations from classic Star Wars movies. For the most part, the first live-action Star Wars TV series has focused on new, never-before-seen regions in the galaxy. In just four episodes, The Mandalorian has introduced four new planets, three of which making their debut in the series premiere. The fourth new planet was explored in episode 4. With two installments remaining in The Mandalorian's eight-episode first season, there's still time for the adventures of Mando and Baby Yoda to bring them to even more new planets. Here's every new planet introduced in The Mandalorian at this point in the series.

Unknown Ice Planet

Episode 1 of The Mandalorian opens on an ice planet where Mando looks for his latest mark, a talkative Mythrol trying in vain to avoid capture. After apprehending the Mythrol, the bounty hunter is caught in a battle with a large tusked creature called a Ravinak, which is apparently capable of living in the ice, and moving through it undetected. After defeating the creature, the Mandalorian leaves the ice planet behind, and it isn't seen again.

The planet's name is never mentioned by name by any of the characters on the show. A comment from the Mythrol suggests that the planet, whatever it may be called, is treated like a waste dump by visitors. It can be inferred from what the first act of The Mandalorian episode 1 shows of the planet that it's a mostly inhospitable world.

The freezing temperatures and ice are only a part of the problem. One of the characters was scanning the ice for the Ravinaks, which indicates that these creatures are not a rarity and may be present all over the planet. Considering the trouble Mando had with just one Ravinak, their size and strength make them a danger to anyone who visits the planet. Though at least some people clearly do live there, it's unlikely that it receives many visitors.

Nevarro

After leaving the ice planet, Mando uses the Razor's Crest to fly to Nevarro, which is so far the most important planet introduced in The Mandalorian. Nevarro is the setting for part of episode 1, and the only location in episode 3. Nevarro, a place with rocky and volcanic terrain, is home to several different species, as Mando has encountered a number of different aliens while on the planet.

Mando's visits to Nevarro have revealed some of the planet's key locales. Nevarro is where Mando meets Greef Karga (Carl Weathers) in the cantina, and receives his reward for his bounties. Nevarro appears to be the new headquarters of the Bounty Hunter's Guild, a faction with a rich history in the Star Wars universe. Also, the Empire may have occupied Nevarro at some point, considering that the Client (Werner Herzog), a person who once worked for the Empire, lives there with his Stormtroopers. Their base may have formerly belonged to the Empire. A third place of interest on Nevarro is a Mandalorian enclave, which is so far the only known hideout of the Mandalorians who survived the Great Purge.

Arvala-7

The third new planet in The Mandalorian is Arvala-7, which is where the Client sends Mando in episode 1 to find Baby Yoda. At first glance, Arvala-7 could easily be mistaken for Tatooine, as it, too, is a desert planet full of Jawas. While on Arvala-7, Mando meets Kuiil (Nick Nolte), who helps him rescue Baby Yoda. How Baby Yoda came to be in the hands of mercenaries is never explored, but it's made clear by Kuill that Arvala-7 has become a den of thieves, as bandits, bounty hunters, mercenaries, and other nefarious characters have gravitated toward the planet in recent times.

The Mandalorian allows viewers a chance to meet one of the creatures that is native to Arvala-7. One of them is the Mudhorn, a large, formidable monster that resembles a woolly rhinoceros. Its strength was so great that Mando would have been killed by the beast, had it not been for the help of Baby Yoda and the Force.

Sorgan

Sorgan is the setting for episode 4 of The Mandalorian, which takes the bounty hunter and Baby Yoda to a fisherman village on a forest planet where they hope to find safe harbor. The problem with Mando's plan is that former shock trooper Cara Dune (Gina Carano) has already chosen the planet as her own sanctuary. Regardless, Mando stays long enough to help Cara Dune prepare the villagers for a battle with Klatooinian raiders. After the conflict is over, Mando leaves Sorgan for good. Not much is revealed about Sorgan in episode 4, aside from the fact that it resides in the Outer Rim, and largely goes unnoticed by the Bounty Hunter's Guild and what's left of the Empire.
