In an unfortunate announcement during today’s Gamescom: Opening Night Live event, the livestream confirmed the recent rumored delay of the upcoming\u00a0LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga<\/em><\/strong> until 2021.<\/p>\n

Though the\u00a0Star Wars\u00a0<\/em>franchise saw great success with the original three episodes, beginning one of the largest pop-culture followings that the world has ever seen, the\u00a0LEGO Star Wars\u00a0<\/em>series garnered a large fanbase of its own, leaving many fans awaiting the next installment of the video game series.<\/p>\n

Made by developer Traveller’s Tales, the games explore the same setting and events of the movies, but with added comedic relief, well-fit for fans of all ages. Because of its success, fans have been highly anticipating the release of\u00a0The Skywalker\u00a0Saga<\/em><\/a>, which was set to release later this year in October, however, in the last twenty-four hours a rumor of delay swept the internet.<\/p>\n

The rumor began when a listing for\u00a0The Skywalker Saga\u00a0<\/em>appeared on\u00a0the\u00a0LEGO Star Wars’ <\/em>website<\/a>\u00a0prematurely showed that the game wouldn’t be coming until 2021. However, this seemed to be unintentional as the message was quickly taken down, and replaced with “The Skywalker Saga – Coming Soon<\/em>.” LEGO did not comment on the change in release date, so it seems like the announcement may have been meant to release today at the Gamescom: Opening Night Live event, which confirmed the delay until next year, though, there is a bit of good news to come along with it.<\/p>\n

Not only are some gamers optimistic that this will give room for Traveller’s Tales to fine-tune the game even further, but the trailer also confirmed that\u00a0The Skywalker Saga<\/em>\u00a0will be coming to next-generation consoles<\/a>, as well as current-gen consoles. Fans are taking to\u00a0Twitter\u00a0to voice their divisive opinion on the decisions; some feel that this was a good call, ultimately meaning a better game in the end, while others wish that the same release date was kept and not worry about next-gen console additions. However, many fans are speculating that the delay is most likely due to Covid-19 restrictions, and\u00a0The Skywalker Saga\u00a0<\/em>certainly wouldn’t be the first game to be delayed for the same reason.<\/p>\n
