Its a heartfelt, momentous battle.
I have the high ground… dont try it!
Only, here we get a little Lego Obi-Wan climbing a step-ladder.Higherground.
Thats every cutscene to a tee.
Dexters Diner even makes a return.
The Lego games were my introduction to Star Wars, even before the films.
But its why I love Star Wars so much.
Now, kids can build those same new memories with whole worlds.
Im more excited than ever for this new generation.
They finally have a Lego Star Wars and its one that knocks the old out of the park.
Thats because its a game that not only celebrates Lego but the PS2 era as a whole.
The levels arent about telling the story anymore.
Instead, the levels are about moments.
Theyre the parts of the films that would be the most fun to play.
It isnt as free as the levels usually are, but its satisfying in that simplicity.
Everything else is as youd expect with a little added complexity.
Its a Lego game - a platformer that a kid can pick up and enjoy without hassle.
Death is meaningless, studs are aplenty, and your favourites are there to earn and buy.
Legocharred Anakin Skywalker?If you might think of it, its there.
The simplicity that made the other Lego games a household staple isnt lost.
But it goes a step further.
The Skywalker Saga had a lot of expectations to live up to.
And it’s not just three trilogies, either, but all their worlds, cities, and landmarks.
Yet it lived up to those expectations.
Somehow, Lego Star Wars returned, and it returned with style.
A PlayStation 5 code was provided by the publisher for this review.
