In earlier “LEGO” games, there wasn’t any voice acting, so characters spoke in an incoherent mumble while conveying their dialogue through physical movements and context clues. One thing that surprised McLoughlin about fans’ reactions to the announcement trailer: “There’s been a big response about the mumble,” he said. We expect players to spend a lot of time there, as well as exploring all the little nooks and crannies of all the different planets and locations we give them.” While that makes each episode seem rather brief, McLoughlin said, “The world itself is obviously huge. Each story moment is only about 10-15 minutes long story moments might also be boss fights or vehicle sections. Instead of a lot of linear levels, each episode of “The Skywalker Saga” has five “story moments” that encompass the major beats of each movie. The focus on exploration has changed how “LEGO Star Wars” tells its stories. It’s a much more humorous telling of an epic saga, with plenty of hidden gags designed to make the player smile. Most “Star Wars” stories are serious affairs made with strict compliance to canon and lore, but the “LEGO” games are all about telling familiar stories in new ways, and that’s what “LEGO Star Wars” has always done. “We get more rope than anyone,” McLoughlin said of the development team’s relationship with Lucasfilm. “Jedi” would have been a very different movie if, instead of helping his rebel friends, Lando Calrissian hopped back in the Millennium Falcon and took off for another planet, but that’s exactly what this game lets you do. While the more recent “LEGO” games have incorporated some elements of exploratory freedom into the gameplay between levels, “The Skywalker Saga” takes it even further.
Alternately, you can switch up your character and roam Tatooine’s vast deserts, checking out the Skywalker and Kenobi homesteads before heading over to Mos Eisley for some drinks and debauchery. If you’re playing through “Return of the Jedi,” you could head straight to the Sarlacc pit for Jabba’s theatrics and play through a story mission. The biggest change to the saga is the newfound sense of freedom found in every story.
