Deal | Giant 85% Steam discount: Blockbuster title with "stunning set pieces" and "goofy charm" drops to all-time low price
There have been tons of Star Wars games over the decades. From first-person shooters to third-person action-adventure titles, multiple studios have tried their hands at recreating the Galaxy Far Far Away. However, none have managed to blend the exciting adventures of the Jedi with wacky humor, except for the Lego Star Wars games. And, the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is, perhaps, the best of the bunch.
The Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is an adventure spanning three trilogies and nine films. With 45 levels, more than 20 planets to explore, and 300 playable characters from the Star Wars universe, it is a game that is meant for diehard Star Wars fans. If you are one, you’ll be happy to know that the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is now on sale on Steam for only $7.49. This is the lowest price ever for the game.
Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is hilarious, gorgeous, and super fun
Visuals, game design, and gameplay, a video game needs to master all three to be considered a truly good title. The Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, per IGN’s review, nails all three. The visuals capture the smooth and shiny Lego aesthetic perfectly, while the third-person gameplay is super fun thanks to expert level design and neat combat.
Since you can play as a whole host of characters, including Jedi, you will be able to engage in Lightsaber battles, sequences that require you to use The Force, and blaster shootouts. Not only this, but the game also features a wide range of levels with different gameplay mechanics. For instance, while some levels have you engage in Lightsaber combat, others revolve around puzzle-solving. There are also sections filled with fan-favorite activities like podracing and space battles.
Talking about levels, the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga features iconic locations from the film. Once unlocked, you can travel to all 23 planets freely and explore cities like Coruscant, Tatooine, Naboo, and more. These locales are also full of side activities to complete for rewards like the Kyber Bricks, the in-game currency Studs, and more. You can invest the Kyber Bricks in unlocking new abilities, while the Studs can be used to purchase new items like ships.
Put simply, the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is a galaxy-spanning Star Wars adventure that lets you relive the beloved franchise with a humorous twist. Moreover, the game also features split-screen co-op, allowing you to enjoy it with a friend or your kids.
