More LEGO Star Wars: Skywalker Saga DLC character packs announced, plus a new Galactic Edition
Announced at D23 earlier today, TT Games, the developers behind the hit LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga game have revealed that more DLC (downloadable content) is on the way, with 6 new character packs are on the way.
These 6 new character packs will include playable characters from The Clone Wars, The Book of Boba Fett, Rebels, Summer Vacation, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Andor, adding to the existing 7 available character packs.
I can imagine fans of The Clone Wars to be very excited for The Clone Wars character pack, which depicts Captain Rex on it. Hopefully this hints at an updated Captain Rex minifigure being included in a set in the not too distant future!
The price for each DLC character pack is US$2.99 a la carte, or you have the option of purchasing Character Collection 1 & 2 in a bundle for US$24.99 or US$14.99 per individual bundle.
If you’d like a physical copy, TT Games have also announced a new ‘Galactic Edition’ version of the game, which will include all 13 character packs, and the base game, and probably some more bonus content.
The release date for The Skywalker Saga Galactic Edition will be 1 November 2022 (just in time for the holiday season), but no price has been revealed.
Like The Skywalker Saga, it will be available for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC.
Tough luck to people that previously stumped for the previous ‘Deluxe Edition’ which included the first 7 character packs, but I guess if you want to expand your roster of playable characters, you could always just opt for the DLC instead of the Galactic Edition.
No news or anything yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if LEGO chose to include an exclusive minifigure in the Galactic Edition, like what they did with Blue Milk Luke Skywalker to drive sales of the physical copy.
