Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will be the biggest Lego game to date when it finally arrives, but the journey to release hasn’t been without its setbacks. The game finally received a release date earlier this year, but considering how many delays it’s suffered, many have been taking an “I’ll believe it when I’m playing it” approach. Well, it seems like The Skywalker Saga will be sticking to its release date, because the game has already gone gold!
#LEGOStarWarsGame has gone gold – cue the Throne Room Theme! Huge congratulations to the team for the galactic work they’ve put into the game.
Fun fact: When a game is gold it means it’s ready to ship! pic.twitter.com/SdUUWLaJvZ

Good to see that Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is finally approaching the finish line, although it hasn’t come without a cost. According to recent reports, developer TT Games has spent nearly five years on The Skywalker Saga, during which crunch was a frequent issue. Hopefully the game’s ambition (it covers every one of the nine core Star Wars movies and features over 500 playable characters) was worth it.
