The Skywalker Sagahas been in the works for a long time. It is a celebration forStar Warsfans. Due to the high volume of content within the game, it’s unsurprising that there would be a lot of things that you didn’t know you could do.
10Unlock Secret Characters With Codes
If you want to get certain characters early, or some characters are not unlockable at all, then you are in the right place. Upon accessing the menu,you can type in codes to access characters old and new.
You can access characters like The Emperor before unlocking and purchasing him with studs, or go for the more absurd. There’s Darth Vader in a Holiday sweater, C-3PO in a Santa Claus costume, or more niche characters, like Mister Bones, a B1-series battle droid that appeared in the canon Star Wars comics.
9Use Micro Versions Of Iconic Ships
During major missions of the franchise, each level has a set of Minikits. These collectibles are exclusive to missions, and some can only be unlocked in a Freeplay version of the mission to access some places the story characters cannot.

Once you obtain every Minikit in a level, you unlock a unique ship that can be found in the Micro section. These ships are a lot of fun because they are ridiculously small and are just one of manyfun gags in the game. Starships like the Millennium Falcon and space stations like the Death Star can be flown around in their tiny forms and used to explore the galaxy.
8Play Classic Mumble Mode
Fans of the originalLEGO Star Warswould remember the classic story cutscenes having no dialogue at all. The game relied on mumbles and murmurs from characters and told the story specifically through visual gags and actions.
WhenLEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Sagawas revealed, some fans expressed their disappointment in the fact that characters spoke in the game. Luckily, the developers took the time to accommodate everyone. Through exploring the extras settings, players can select Mumble Mode at no charge, and have the game feel like its classic predecessor once again.
7Find Unique Dialogue When Pairing Different Characters
Amongst other things, characters having dialogue together is one of the many ways in whichLEGO Star Warsshows great attention to detail. If both characters in your party are active, sometimes they can have a minor conversation. These can range from Obi-Wan educating Anakin on the essentials of beard grooming, to more unexpected interactions like pairingDarth Vader with Kylo Ren.
It was nice to see a level of detail in funny dialogue for different characters. Try and pair some random characters together and see if there is a fun interaction waiting for you.
6Find Fun Extras With Datacards
Upon your adventures across the dune seas of Tatooine, or the raging fires of the iconic Mustafar, you may have stumbled acrosssomething called a Datacard. This can be used in the pause menu to exchange it, along with the currency of studs, into an extra, otherwise known in the old games as a “cheat”.
This can range from advantages like currency multipliers, and ensuring billionaire status in no time, to giving every lightsaber wielder a baguette. Alternatively, you unlock things like a superfast, invincible golden gonk droid with a mustache, or enjoy the iconic Cantina Band song on repeat, forever.
5Upgrade Your Characters
If you’ve wondered just what you can spend your Kyber Brick collectibles on, then you have come to the right place. In the menus of the game, you’ll find an array ofupgrades for each of the unique classes. This ranges from Jedi to Astromech. Each class has unique upgrades that you can spend your Kyber Bricks on. Allowing for Scoundrels to slide and shoot, or for you to get studs upon the completion of terminal puzzles.

These upgrades are important because you can give yourself a lot more health, or for the collectors out there, you can give yourself a detector, which gives you a visual aid as to where collectibles are located.
4Play As The Mandalorian And Ahsoka Tano
Since thisLEGO Star Warsgame is specifically tailored around theSkywalker Saga, fans were left disappointed at the lack of inclusion of Anakin’s apprentice, Ahsoka Tano. Luckily, the team atTraveller’s Talesincluded her, as well as many other characters likeThe Mandalorianin a DLC pack.
Through the purchase of this DLC, you gain the ability to play as the titular character, “Mando” with Baby Yoda (Grogu), and other characters fromThe MandalorianSeason 2. This includes the dual-wielding, white lightsaber Jedi, Ahsoka Tano. She plays quicker, and more aggressively than the other Jedi thanks to her two sabers, and it’s a lot of fun.
3Use The Force On Droids
Sometimes you’ll find a Kyber Brick in a place you consider unreachable. If you can’t figure out how to get the collectible, then it’s best to try pairing a Jedi or Sith with a droid.
With a force-user, players can pick up droids like they were objects, and they can practically lift the other character into the air, and place them where they cannot go. This is great for when it comes to getting those hard-to-reach collectibles and makes extra use out of our friendly droids and Astro-mechs.
2Find Indiana Jones' Ark Of The Covenant
Within the third level ofThe Force Awakens, Rey and Finn can find a crate with three buttons. Upon unlocking the crate, the golden Ark of the Covenant is revealed. It’s afun easter eggof another Lucasfilm property, but not the only Easter egg involving the archeologist.
The game pays homage to two of the most iconic Harrison Ford characters. As its only right that the smuggler Han Solo has the historic property of Indiana Jones.
1Play As Over 384 Characters
Since this game is a celebration of all thingsStar Wars, it only makes sense that the developers tried to include every character across all nine Skywalker Saga movies. There’s a great deal of care and love for each character.
This can range from the well-known characters like Obi-Wan Kenobi, with his youth fromThe Phantom Menace, all the way toA New Hope’s Old Ben. Or, to moreobscure characters like Mama the Hutt, grandmother to the infamous Jabba the Hutt. This character has a limited appearance in the franchise, and a minor appearance in the animated show,Star Wars: The Clone Wars, but the developers made sure to try and include everyone.
