The introduction of a new Galactic Edition of Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga in November is significant, but even more so is the inclusion of 30 unique playable Star Wars characters, such as Cassian Andor from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Reva from Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Captain Rex from Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Only a few of the new Character Collection 2 characters, including those three, are included in the six new packs. Along with the Lego Star Wars Summer Vacation TV special, the new collection will consist of figures from the Star Wars television series Andor, Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Book of Boba Fett. Let’s hope that the new character selections for Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga get even more bizarre, given that “Weird Al” Yankovic entered the Star Wars realm in that Disney Plus summer-themed special.

The original game, which encompasses the nine numbered Star Wars films, and 13 character packs, will be included in the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Galactic Edition rerelease. In addition to the dozen new packs, seven original character packs have previously been made available.

The Galactic Edition will go on sale for $79.99 on November 1 in digital form for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X, as well as for $69.99 on the Windows PC.

Character Collections 1 and 2 will be offered in a bundle for $24.99 and separately for $14.99, respectively. Character packs by themselves will also be sold separately for $2.99.

The Skywalker Saga, a Lego Star Wars set, was launched in April. Our review for Polygon described the title as “a nostalgic trip, riffing not only on the movies that inspired it but the Lego Star Wars franchise itself.”

The original LEGO Star Wars game only came out earlier this year, and other LEGO games added new material as DLC rather than through a rerelease, so many would argue that it is too soon for a rerelease of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.
