The highly anticipated Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga brings together all nine movies to create one of the most exciting video games this year. 

Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga, released in 2007, featured the first six movies and was a fan favorite. Many people will feel the nostalgic feeling of playing most of the same missions and levels in the Skywalker saga. 

Although the first six movies in each game are nearly identical, the Skywalker Saga allows players to experience new missions, more planets, and most importantly, free roam. This allows players to travel from planet to planet whenever they want. They can do side missions, collect kyber bricks for upgrades, and collect more characters up to 380. 

The kyber bricks are the same concept as the gold bricks in the Complete Saga. Datacards are hidden around planets and are similar to red bricks to make upgrades such as studs times two. Minikits still apply to unlock extra missions and extra characters. 

There are 45 levels and for every movie there are five missions. 

The game still focuses on the funny facial expressions and goofy personalities of sith lords, jedis, and droids.

The visual features of the game stand out as a highlight. They are appealing and can win gamers’ appreciation. 

It will not take gamers that long to complete the 45 missions initially, but most people who play Lego games aim to hit 100 percent. This means that they have to collect every kyber brick, every datacard, every minikit, every character, and complete all missions. There is so much that can be done in the Skywalker Saga, so this task will be a tough one. 

The game can be played on Playstation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC for a standard price of $60.

Overall this game is for all ages and will be one of the most popular games of the year.
