I’ll undoubtedly spend many hours scouring for Kyber Bricks and other goodies too. I didn’t get to any dogfighting sections, for one thing, and I’m curious to find out how the skill tree abilities affect the gameplay. I’ve barely scratched the surface of this game. You can pick up studs to buy upgrades and return to levels in free play once you’ve unlocked more characters with different abilities to find more secrets. Other mechanics that long-time fans will be familiar with are here too, such as the ability to switch between characters in single player to complete puzzles. 'Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga' has some fun takes on classic Star Wars moments. There are pretty terrific references to a famous goof and a scene from one of the other movies. Without spoiling anything, I cackled a bunch of times at solid jokes, riffs or reactions. The chunk that I played is packed with the charm and jokes that have become a hallmark of the Lego games. None of the story beats I encountered will be surprising to anyone familiar with the film, but the game plays with indelible moments and lines in clever and inventive ways.
You’ll be able to take cover behind objects you build as well. Press a button, and your character will automatically run over to a different hiding spot. I didn’t play around with this much, but it seems very much in the vein of many third-person shooters from the last decade or so. You can hurl objects at enemies and place others in the right place to unlock another part of a level. The upgraded Force abilities are fun as well. That holds true whether you’re battling with fists, droid appendages or a lightsaber. You can string together combos and counter enemies’ attacks. If you’re ever unsure what to do, smash everything in sight and you’ll figure it out. If the preview (and every other Lego Star Wars game I’ve played) is anything to go by, though, it won’t exactly pose an Elden Ring-level challenge. That section is in a large arena with multiple vertical levels, and, despite having a minimap, it wasn’t always easy to spot where enemy blaster shots were coming from. At one point, you’ll need to fend off Stormtroopers while Chewbacca repairs the Millennium Falcon. Some areas felt a little too big, if anything.
