LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Gamescom 2021 liveblog – release date, trailer and more

Gamescom’s Opening Night Live promises big news for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, with a potential release date, new trailer and more in store.

The last concrete news on the eagerly-awaited title (beyond another, indefinite delay in April) came at last year’s Gamescom event, so it seems fitting that this year’s opening event could finally bring us a confirmed launch date for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.

Opening Night Live gets underway at 7pm UK time. Hit play on the video below to tune in, then follow along with Brick Fanatics’ liveblog further down the page as we chart and react to all the latest developments on what could be the most anticipated LEGO video game of all time.

Make sure to get involved in the liveblog’s comments, too – we want to know your predictions for the event, your reactions to all the news, and whether it was worth the year-long wait. Will we finally get a release date? A new trailer? A list of characters and planets? More DLC or expansions? Fingers crossed for at least some of that…
