    This is more like Lego city undercover than any other lego games I've played. The Co-op is excellent, I'm playing it with my girlfriend and we love it. The world's are really cool, it has a very star wars feel, and the jokes are actually pretty funny. It's not difficult at all but the combat and puzzles are fun and rewarding.

    Hats off to the Lego Brand. Great game, plays and looks very nice. I was going to pick this up on PS5 but i changed my mind at the last second. Glad i did.

    I can't believe that I'm saying the one of the best Star Wars games to ever come out has the word "Lego" in front of it. This game is simple awesome. Extremely vast planets with loads to do and tons of story content from all the movies. My only complaint is that I wish I would have picked it up for my PC. At times the frame rate drops pretty low.

    This is simply the BEST Lego game ever made and the possibility to play this on the Go is a dream come true. Highly recommended!

    Its one of the best lego games out there. Fun gameplay, lots to collect, and even though the graphics can sometimes look not great, it is still really good for switch standards. 100% recommend!

    This game is perfection. I'll only say this:
    It's not a LEGO game of Star Wars,
    It's a Star Wars game made of LEGO.
    And it's the best game ever created.

    My son and I are big fans of LEGO games, as well as the saga of star wars - of course the original trilogy (we still like episodes I-III as much, but the latest trilogy is **** :().
    The first game we bought was LEGO Batman and that was it.

    My son is already 16 years old and it is getting harder and harder to convince him to play with me, but in this case he himself proposed to buy LEGO STAR WARS: THE SKYWALKER SAGA and go crazy.
    And it is as before, everything as we remember - good mood, great fun.
    I hope we will spend a lot of time on this game.

    This is such a good game for Star Wars & Lego fans alike!!! The graphics of this game are amazing and goes off the movies with some minor changes to suit the younger audience. Overall I’ve been enjoying this pick up for hours! Definitely worth it!!

    LEGO Star Wars: the Skywalker Saga is simultaneously the most extensive and all-encompassing Star Wars game AND the most ambitious and massive LEGO game to date. The amount of content is vast, and fortunately, much of it is worth experiencing.

The amount of content is vast, and fortunately, much of it is worth experiencing.

    The main story missions range in quality, some feel too brief while others are quite well crafted and memorable. The cutscenes and dialogue are for the most part very well done, and strike a good balance between the gravitas of the Star Wars universe and the whimsical nature that comes with LEGO games. I enjoyed that the developers thought to include a mode in which none of the characters speak, and instead communicate via mumbles, in order to deliver an experience more in line with the original LEGO Star Wars games. The open-world environments offer a great density of quests, missions, and unlockables, and can provide lots of optional enjoyment for those who wish to seek them out. The gameplay isn't incredibly deep, but is solid enough and helps to keep the barrier of entry low.

    The game looks surprisingly good on the Nintendo Switch, though performance issues are often a problem. I disliked how compressed the music sounded, I wish that there was a way to download higher quality audio files, as I found the low-quality music and dialogue detracted from the experience at times. The game also can experience crashes on occasion, as well as a multitude of different glitches, both minor and major.

    Overall this is a pretty impressive game that does unfortunately come with some issues. I'd still recommend it in general, as it offers an experience most players will likely enjoy.    … Expand

The only problem is the glitches. I’m assuming the graphical glitches are primarily on only just the switch version. Which are fine they aren’t that bad. But there are a lot of soft locks a lot of crashes, and even some reported hard locks so gotta dock it points there, but assuming these glitches will be fixed this game has almost no flaws.… Expand

    Wonderful game! Great way of presenting the Star Wars Saga. Enjoyed everything! My only gripes are minor: you get stuck in the environment more than often , NPCs get in your way. Overall amazing game!!

    The LEGO games are always a good pallet cleanser, and this isn’t any different! Great graphics, voice acting, and humor. Plenty of replay ability in this one. Well worth the price for the amount of entertainment.

    - The combat is good but easy.
    - the visuals is awesome, but in the switch version is so so.

    This is the best LEGO game ever. While most of the actual levels are pretty underwhelming, it’s the vast open world that you travel through that makes this game amazing. Hundreds of puzzles and side quests scattered all over 20+ planets make the game truly special.

    The game is a cool first start if this is going to be the first attempt at open world in this new engine for Lego games. The levels are a little too short but it is a cool proof of concept.

Like I said, it's clearly made with love for the franchise. It's fully and wonderfully voice acted, down to every NPC text box. It's surprisingly immersive. The open world is well-done. It's often quite witty. You can play as Bail Organa. The combat is fantastic. Boss fights are mostly great. When the level design is good, it's very good. There is an absolute plethora of content. Flying, although sometimes clunky, is fun. Very good atmosphere. Unfortunately, I always think I'll enjoy it more than I do. Like I said, agonizingly close to greatness.

    Traveller's Tales has outdone themselves with this new LEGO Star Wars. Their attention to detail and wide variety of activities, coupled with the expansive environments, makes for a fun-filled return to that galaxy far, far away. [Issue #59 – May/June 2022, p. 75]

    Overall though there’s actually very little to criticise about The Skywalker Saga. It’s a perfectly constructed love letter to a series of films that will appeal to young and old alike. The force is strong in this one.

    LEGO Star Wars on Nintendo Switch is the final compilation of the Skywalker story with all its nine episodes, humorously and faithfully depicted. An entertaining action adventure all around.
