Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga is the very best Lego game to date, and one of the best Star Wars games ever made. With 45 levels and 140 side missions, you can explore more than 20 planets while engaging in lightsaber combat, third-person shooting, and melee combat. Enjoy a combination of classic slapstick humour, brilliant sight gags and great voice acting as you collect 731 puzzles, 135 level challenges, and 380 characters.


What we like:
  • Revamped formula with new camera angle
  • Lightsaber combat better than ever
  • Third-person shooting feels great
  • Huge amount of things to do
  • Hilarious writing
  • Open areas full of secrets to explore
What could be improved:
  • Melee combat could be better
  • Lack of levels dedicated to spin-off films such as Rogue One or Solo
  • The Mandalorian only represented by a playable character
