Unfortunately for players on Steam, as they were unable to pre-load the game, some may have to wait longer to play the latest.

Now, both the physical and digital releases of the game are officially available. People who bought physical copies of the game will have already enjoyed a few days of stud collection, as did some PS5 owners. After some delays and a lot of hype around the game, it is finally available to play. Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga just recently released, although fans were expecting the final collection of lego star wars Been playing for a long time. You won't be sorry.Just hours after its release, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga beats Lego and Star Wars game records to top existing Steam players. Go check it out instead of The Skywalker Saga. At least we have The Complete Saga still which, I might add, still holds up today, at least in my mind. Once my nostalgia-tinted glasses were taken off, I was left with a monotonous, boring, repetitive, aimless, wannabe Lego Star Wars game that, while it it has some good stuff to work with and matches today's standards of graphics, feels incomplete or unfinished gameplay-wise.Ī real shame. It kinda feels like 'Oh wait, that was a level I just did? all i did was WALK do a hero panel and shoot 3 droids'

'Actual' levels don't really feel unique or special, usually feeling like an extension of the open world area (and not in a good way.

The most 'unusual' puzzle (if you can even call it that) that I remember from my playthrough of Episode 1 consisted of rebuilding pipes to fill tanks with water on Tatooine and, despite being the most 'unique' puzzle I encountered, was by far and away the most monotonous, boring, and frustratingly slow sequence of events and took a good 10 minutes, not from difficulty (it only gave you the pieces you need at a time, so a bit hard to mess up), but from the sheer length of the 'challenge'. The sheer quantity of the kyber bricks being kinda just spat all over the world, not in any really clever ways with cool puzzles or sequences like old lego games did, just in a 'oh, didn't think one would be here' kinda way. Heck, it's hardly worth the hunt because all characters are basically just reskins of the same handful of classes (Jedi, hero, astromech, etc) with no gameplay variance between them. The way you unlock characters outside of the story (glorified fetch-quests of talking to the right people) is very, very annoying and not at all rewarding to pull off when you finally find the right joker to ask about the character you want. The mind-boggling amount of the EXACT same puzzle with little-to-no variation ( batteries, platforming, more batteries, character panel, and EVEN MORE BATTERIES) Easily one of the most disappointing parts of the game, especially considering how the fighter combat in the Lego The Force Awakens game worked. I found myself many times asking 'Wait, another wave of enemies?' as i slowly steered my fighter to shoot the barely-moving fighters. Starfighter combat is janky, slow, and repetitive. Blaster combat, while having a nice, over-the-shoulder playstyle, feels clunky and monotonous. The aforementioned saber combat, while fun, is uncommon, at least if you're following the 'story mode' As an added bonus, if there's characters talking, you are slowed to an absolute CRAWL for the duration of the area in order to avoid skipping any dialogue. This isn't even a joke, about 60% of episode one consists of traveling between locations where nothing happens (except some dialogue if you're lucky) and you can't fast travel to speed things up. (one of my favorites: Young Anakin: 'That's a cool suit! Where can I get one?' Darth Vader: 'Patience, child.

Funny back-and-forth interactions between the characters you choose A leveling/powering up system that incentivizes finding Kyber bricks That Darth Maul fight was absolutely GLORIOUS Large open world(s) to explore and find collectables Faithful, yet humorous take on the Star Wars film plots, as is par-for-the-course in Lego games Amazing and dynamic graphics and cinimatics Unfortunately, after months of not touching the game, I just haven't been able to bring myself to keep playing past Episode 1, and even completing that single episode felt like a chore more than a game. I was uber hype for the game during development, even after the delays, because I grew up playing Lego games with my brothers, and I was more than ready to play this supposed 'ultimate Lego Star Wars' when it dropped.
