Here’s how exactly long it takes to beat Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

The Skywalker Saga is easily the most ambitious Lego game ever made, taking players across the entirety of the Star Wars series. With dozens of levels and hundreds of playable characters, Star Wars fans will have their hands full with content to play through. As Lego games are usually heavy on exploration and collectibles, most players will likely want to get a rough idea of how long the experience can take. Interestingly your time with Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga can vary greatly, so here’s how long it takes to beat.

How long it takes to beat Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga

Your playtime in The Skywalker Saga is going to depend greatly on how much you want to explore and collect, as a completionist run is literally going to add dozens of more hours. This is because of the general structure of the game, which has you moving from one hub area to the next. These hubs can be explored at length, or you can simply head to the main missions and complete those.

If you’re looking to simply mainline the story across all nine episodes it’ll take you roughly 15-20 hours. Completing everything in the main story will unlock about 25 percent of characters, vehicles, collectibles, etc, so you’re looking at a lot more time to unlock everything. Completionists should expect to spend anywhere from 75-90 hours with The Skywalker Saga. Of course, you can fall anywhere within that range if decide to just explore a little bit.

The main thing to find while exploring is blue Kyber Bricks, as there are over a thousand to find. These are then used to purchase upgrades and unlock new characters.
