LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga - Everything you need to know!
Visit a galaxy far far away when LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga launches on April 5th 2022. Get up to speed with our handy recap guide while you wait!
What is LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga?
Way back in 2005, developer TT Games launched what would become an entire franchise, with the launch of LEGO Star Wars. Now, after 17 years the largest and most ambitious title in the series is set to launch with the release of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga coming to PC on April 5th 2022.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga features Episode 1-9 in the main Saga, with various levels from each one. Players will be able to jump into any of the Episodes and battle their way through main story mission levels, much like how previous LEGO titles have worked. The big change this time around is that you'll also be able to explore a number of planets such as Tatooine, Hoth, Coruscant, Naboo and many more iconic locations from the Star Wars universe!
As well as boosting a huge number of locations from the films, players will also be able to play as over 300 characters from Yoda, Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and so many others. They even have a fully playable LEGO Babu Frik in the game! One of the new features this time around is that you'll be able to unlock new abilities for specific classes using Kyber Bricks, that are found by completing various challenges / side quests.
The game also has an improved combat system, allowing you to take cover with blasters and pick off enemies by targeting specific body parts. Prefer using a Lightsaber? Those force wielders are also in luck as the previous button mashy combat has been upgraded with a combo system to allow for gaining more rewards the better you perform in battle.
Whether you're a newcomer to the franchise or a veteran stud collector there's never been a better time to play the game and it'll soon be available as LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga launches tomorrow on April 5th!
