Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is getting new character packs for Star Wars Day

May 4th, or Star Wars Day, is back and as part of the celebrations two new character packs have been released for Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.

These new DLC packs feature characters from the second season of The Mandalorian and the Disney Plus animated series The Bad Batch. In The Mandalorian Season 2 Pack, you'll find the characters Ahsoka Tano, Boba Fett, Bo Katan, Fennec Shand, and Moff Gideon. Then in The Bad Batch pack are Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, Crosshair, and Echo.

Both packs can be purchased individually, but are also part of the Character Collection Pack, which now includes seven character packs in total.

The base game already included hundreds of unlockable characters from all nine Skywalker Saga movies at launch, but these DLC character packs add familiar faces from other stories in the Star Wars universe.

Previous packs that have been released over the past month, for example, feature characters from the first season of The Mandalorian, Rogue One, and Solo, as well as various characters from Troopers and Classic. Just like today's new releases, these packs can be purchased individually or all together in the Character Collection Pack.

Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga launched just over a month ago on April 5 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. We were impressed with the game and eager for more after ten hours of its "lovingly crafted world".

Analysis: More?

With the release of these two packs, TT Games has now released all of its previously announced post-launch content for Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. Whether or not he might have other post-launch plans up his sleeve remains to be seen.

Regardless of what the future holds, it's safe to say that Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga has been a significant success for the studio. In late April, Warner Bros. Games announced that it was the "biggest launch in Lego game history."

As for other daytime Star Wars announcements, Disney has released a second trailer for its upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series, which will begin streaming on Disney Plus later this month, while Garmin has released a pair of new Vivofit fitness trackers. Jr 3 based on characters from The Mandalorian.
