According to a new report, the Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga release date is closer than some may think. Right now, the new Star Wars LEGO game is slated to release sometime in “2022.” Obviously, this is a pretty broad window and because it hasn’t been narrowed yet many have begun to speculate the game won’t release until the second half of the year, and this may be true, but a new report suggests otherwise.ย
The report comes the way of Star Wars insider Bespin Bulletin, who claims last they heard the game is releasing sometime between April and May. That said, this date, while close, still isn’t set in stone, which suggests if this is when the game releases TT Games may be coming in hot with it. And it sounds like the biggest reason it’s not set ins tone is because of the pandemic, which already has had a huge impact on the game’s development.ย

“The last thing I heard on LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was that April/May is when the game is looking to release, but it’s not set in stone and things are ever-hanging in the current landscape due to COVID-19, which has already forced multiple delays upon The Skywalker Saga.”
Unfortunately, this is where the update from Bespin Bulletin ends. As for WB Games and TT Games, they haven’t addressed this report in any capacity and we don’t anticipate either changing this, however, if either or both do, or if anyone involved with either comments, we will be sure to update the story accordingly
