In the coming periods, plenty of Star Wars games are waiting for us. But the most comprehensive Star Wars game we have at the moment is LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga in a bitter but real way. This is directly reflected in the sales of the game. Skywalker Saga, who officially debuted on April 5, has managed to completely dominate the game market as of the month it was released. The data released by the market research company NPD really reveals the power of Star Wars.
In April, The Skywalker Saga, the best-selling game on all consoles, surpassed the previous first-hand ring. As of May 13, 2022, The Skywalker Saga, which managed to pass Pokemon Legends: Arceus, which rose to second place after Elden Ring in the list of best-selling games in 2022, was also really strong. The game also became the first non-Nintendo game to sell the best on the Switch console after a nearly year hiatus. This success was previously achieved by Monster Hunter Rise in 2021.
Less than a month and a half after it came out, I was quite surprised that LEGO Star Wars dominated all the charts like this. Skywalker Saga also hasn’t left anyone at the top on Xbox and PlayStation. People have a great hunger for Star Wars games, and TT Games has achieved a great success with a very accurate timing. I hope that this success graph will increase the incentive to make more single-player Star Wars games in the future.
