Gamers rejoice! There’s exciting news for fans of both LEGO and Star Wars — Epic Games has announced the free availability of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga from December 6 to December 12, 2024. This treasure trove of gaming goes beyond being just another addition to the library; it provides players with the opportunity to immerse themselves once more within the beloved universe created by George Lucas, all through the playful and endearing medium of LEGO.
Released by Warner Bros. and developed by Traveller's Tales, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga debuted on April 5, 2022, and has been welcomed with open arms by fans worldwide. The game encapsulates all nine films of the Skywalker saga, allowing players to relive — and even reshape — iconic moments from the film series through the unique lens of LEGO styling and humor. It captures the essence of countless childhood fantasies, transforming dramatic plot points and dramatic space battles of the Star Wars universe with the charm of block-building action.
This week of free access aligns perfectly with the festive season, making it the ideal time for players to engage with the game without any financial barrier. Available through the Epic Games Store, interested gamers can easily claim their copy by visiting the store until the deadline.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga offers remarkable features, such as the largest roster of playable characters within the LEGO Star Wars series, boasting over 300 characters from the franchise, ranging from heroes like Luke Skywalker and Rey to infamous villains like Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine. Players can select heroes or villains to navigate through the narratives of each movie, providing significant flexibility and personalization to gameplay.
The game includes over 100 vehicles from the Star Wars galaxy. Whether players want to soar through space with the Millennium Falcon or navigate the volatile terrain of Tatooine on podracers, the choices are abundant and engaging. On top of this, players can explore 23 iconic planets, each rendered with charming and delightful LEGO artistry.
When it was first released, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was praised not only for its engaging gameplay but also for its animated storytelling, humor, and voiceovers, making it suitable for gamers of all ages. Steam reviews show it maintained a positive standing among players — even with instances of peak concurrent players soaring to 2,000 at one point. This speaks to the game's popularity and successful capture of interest at launch.
But let’s not forget how the game itself is structured. Players have the unique ability to begin their adventure from any episode within the nine movies, offering unmatched freedom to choose their own storyline sequence. This non-linear approach to gameplay allows fans to experience their favorite moments from the Star Wars universe at their own pace.
The upcoming days are perfect for those who might have missed out on experiencing the title since its launch. Even for seasoned veterans, revisiting the chessboard of battles with beloved characters offers nostalgia and the chance to share the experience with newer players eager to discover this whimsical world.
While you explore the plethora of options available to you within the game, players can also indulge their creativity through the purely harmless LEGO breaks seeded within the storyline. The charming block creatures of varying shapes aren’t just for show — they remind players of the playful discretion required when outfitting their characters, solving puzzles, and engaging with the environment.

Players interested should not hesitate; engaging with the free download over the weekend could provide ample time to explore several of the game’s main features, going from lightsaber battles to space dogfights.
