LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will see the light in just a few hours. The embargo on the publication of reviews has fallen, and the press is in a hurry to share their opinion about the new creation TT Games. The game turned out so good that its ratings may turn out to be among the best among all Lego projects.
At the time of writing, rating LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga it scored 82 on OpenCritic (39 reviews; 89% recommend). Things are a little better on Metacritic – 84 points (PS5 version, 31 reviews).
- According to TheGamer (4.5/5), The Skywalker Saga turned out outstanding. It does not sweep through the tops of the plot, like previous games, but leisurely guides the gamer through the entire space saga. So in front of gamers are not just recreated films, but a full-fledged addition to them: you can walk along the streets of Coruscant, look out the window of the Cloud City or wander along the sands of Tatooine, and all this is seasoned with humor. Besides, TT Games managed to correctly balance the open world with linear levels.
There are not many games in the world that I was eager to play. The Skywalker Saga – a rare case, but it was accompanied by an additional risk – not matching the hype. This is the first LEGO Star Warswhich contains all the films since Complete Saga, and this is a difficult task, especially since there are now nine films in the saga. The Skywalker Saga doing his best to revive the galaxy “Star Wars”. The project justified the hype created around itself and destroyed my expectations. Somehow LEGO Star Wars came back and did it in style.
- A critic from Windows Central (4/5) noted the grown areas for exploration, in which you can really get lost. Each of them is hidden a lot of collectibles and mysteries. The accumulated funds will not accumulate aimlessly in your pocket – some will be gladly accepted by merchants, while others will be needed to improve the characters. The author also liked flying in space with convenient controls. She also managed to test local co-op – the screen is divided into two halves, and gamers are not tied to each other and can explore whatever they want.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is a great game for all ages. Yes, you have a health bar, but the gameplay is relatively simple. And if the enemy manages to finish you off, the character will respawn in the same place.
- The IGN journalist (8/10) noted that moving the camera over the hero’s shoulder benefited the game, because it is much more convenient to attack opponents: lightsabers can be launched with a boomerang, send boxes flying with the help of force, and simple combos allow you to literally juggle opponents. “Combat is fast, fluid, and feels amazing,” the author writes. However, a number of game-breaking bugs became a fly in the ointment, some of which tightly stop progress. Also, criticism upset the cover system: due to the constantly regenerating health bar and the “accuracy” of attack aircraft, the need to hide behind cover practically disappears.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is a breathtaking reimagining of the most iconic moments “Star Wars” and places them in a series of interplanetary playgrounds full of discovery and entertaining entertainment.
Release LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will take place tomorrow, April 5, on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch.
