It was an absolute pleasure to be part of the launch of the original LEGO Star Wars game and it’s equally exciting to now move the series forward and help create a new era of LEGO Star Wars games.” The game will give fans an all-new LEGO Star Wars experience with complete freedom to explore the LEGO Star Wars galaxy. “LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga marks our return to the franchise that kicked off the LEGO video game series.

Almost all of the screenshots show the original trilogy era, with one showing the prequel trilogy era instead. From the looks of the locations used, it seems like the levels in this game will be completely built from the ground up as opposed to just being a mix of remastered levels from previous installments and new levels for the later two sequel trilogy movies.
