LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is by far (a galaxy far, far away) the biggest ever series launch on PC. In fact, it’s not even close.
Only launching this week, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is already proving to be an enormous success for TT Games and WB Games. At the time of writing, according to SteamDB, Skywalker Saga has already amassed a peak of 82,517 concurrent players on Steam.
Other LEGO games didn’t stand a chance!
As noted by an industry analyst, Benji-Sales, the competition within the LEGO franchise isn’t even remotely close. For example, its closest rival is Marvel Super Heroes has a peak of 5,593 concurrent players on Steam. LEGO The Hobbit, LEGO Ninjago, and LEGO Lord of the Rings also achieved a peak of over 5,000 concurrent players.
What about other Star Wars games?
To compare outside of the LEGO franchise, The Skywalker Saga also blows other Star Wars titles into another galaxy. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order has a peak of 46,550, Star Wars: Squadrons at 36,492, Star Wars: The Old Republic at 34,210, and finally Star Wars Battlefront 2 with a measly 10,489.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is also popular amongst the GameByte team. In our review, we said: “it rightly innovates far beyond the standardised formula that this series has built over the years with some fresh ideas.”
