The Jakku system, which included the planet Jakku and its pair of moons, was a star system situated in a sparsely inhabited sector of the Western Reaches, found within the Inner Rim of the galaxy.
In the year following the Battle of Endor, the Galactic Empire mounted their final defense within this system, culminating in a massive battle that unfolded in the skies above Jakku. Three decades after this event, the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Finalizer from the First Order visited the system, prompted by intelligence suggesting the presence of a map leading to Luke Skywalker on the planet. Rey, Finn, and BB-8, piloting the Millennium Falcon, escaped Jakku, only to be captured by the Eravana while still within the system. A conflict then erupted onboard involving Han Solo, Chewbacca, the fugitives, members of the Guavian Death Gang, Kanjiklub, and three rathtars. Ultimately, the group made their exit from the system, with Solo initiating a jump to hyperspace for the Falcon directly from the Eravana's docking bay.
