Despite all his delays, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was still one of the most anticipated games of this spring. Being able to follow the whole saga in a single game, with hundreds of iconic characters, was enough to attract both fans of Star Wars and fans of LEGO games, and obviously, the success was there for TT Gameswhich far exceeds all figures from previous LEGO games.
At the top of the charts
First of all, the game is a complete hit on Steam. With a peak of 82,517 players simultaneously (according to SteamDB), the title is by far the most popular LEGO game on the platform, far ahead of the second LEGO game in the ranking, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes and its peak at less than 6,000 people.
Same success in Great Britain, according to figures provided by the GSD. According to the first results, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga achieves the second best launch of a physical game in the territory in 2022just overtaken by Pokemon Legends Arceus.
So it’s better thanElden Ringwhich is no small feat, although Eurogamer reminds that comparisons can be skewed given that unlike many others, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was released on a Tuesday (instead of Friday), which makes for a better launch week.
The title has obviously been able to count on the Switch to sell in pallets, because it is this version that has been the most requested. Naturally, the game topped the sales charts last weekand even has the merit of resurrecting Lego Harry Potter Collection in this top:
- Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
- Kirby and the Forgotten Land
- FIFA 22
- Elden Ring
- Pokemon Legends: Arceus
- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
- Lego Harry Potter Collection
- WWE 2K22
- Just Dance 2022
- Animal Crossing: New Horizons
