LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga launches in April, new trailer

It’s been a long time coming, but LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga finally has a release date. The game will arrive for Switch on April 5, Warner Bros. Interactive and TT Games revealed today.

We first heard about LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga in 2019 and it had originally been on track for release that year.  That target eventually slipped by and in August 2020, it was delayed to Spring 2021. Last April, it was pushed back indefinitely. Finally, last August, it was given a new Spring 2022 release window.

Here’s some information about the game:
