Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga got its first reveal back in 2019 as part of the Xbox Showcase and since then its release window has shifted a few times. So yeah, fans have been waiting a while for this one. As part of Gamescom we now have the most impressive look at the game so far thanks to a very cool new gameplay trailer, alongside a new release window of Autumn 2022 in Australia.

The scope here looks insane, all nine movies covered with the ability to fly X-Wings, go pod racing, jump into a walker, and take control of Luke Skywalker, Rey, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Finn, BB-8, and "a legion of other heroes". Plus so many classic locales from Dagobah to Coruscant and everything in between.

It looks awesome.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga features the biggest roster of playable characters in the LEGO Star Wars series and players will engage in new ways of combat as they wield lightsabers, fire blasters, and chain different attacks with the greatest legends from every era of the Skywalker saga. Players can fight against the forces of evil as favourite characters such as Luke Skywalker, Rey, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Finn, BB-8 and a legion of other heroes.

The greatest space and land vehicles are also available to command. Players can jump to lightspeed in the Millennium Falcon to outrun Imperial starships, battle First Order TIE fighters in Resistance X-wings, or podrace on Tatooine. Players will be able to travel through hyperspace and explore planets that can be unlocked during their adventures. From the jungle moon of Ajan Kloss to the vibrant, city-covered planet Coruscant, the LEGO Star Wars galaxy is yours to discover and play in.

As per the other LEGO tie-ins this is developed by TT Games in collaboration with the LEGO Group, Lucasfilm Games and publisher Warner Bros. Games. It's headed to Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
