A video posted on the official Star Wars YouTube channel confirmed the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga release date, which is set to be on October 20. The video removed after being posted online, but not before everyone found out the release date.
It is unclear why the video was taken down when it was clearly posted on the official YouTube channel of Star Wars. Nonetheless, the game is set to launch for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
A copy of the now-deleted video clip can be seen below, where the release date is clearly mentioned.
Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was first announced over at the Xbox E3 2019 press conference, and the game will cover the events from all the nine Star Wars movies. This effectively means that the game will include all the old movies in the series, plus the new entries that we have seen in recent years. This includes Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
Last year, the managing director of TT Games, Tom Stone talked about the return of Star Wars in the Lego series,
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga marks our return to the franchise that kicked off the LEGO video game series. The game will give fans an all-new LEGO Star Wars experience with complete freedom to explore the LEGO Star Wars galaxy. It was an absolute pleasure to be part of the launch of the original LEGO Star Wars game and it’s equally exciting to now move the series forward and help create a new era of LEGO Star Wars games.
Fans can expect a large roster of playable characters in the game that include Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Rey, Finn, BB-8, Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, Kylo Ren and more. The last game to come in the series was Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens which released in 2016. It featured a great story, many levels and fun puzzle-solving to progress in the story. We expect the newest title to be anything but better.
