Starwars.com published a new interview plan with Jonathan Smith, head of production and program director at TT Games, and Craig Derrick, production manager at Lucasfilm Games, both working on the new Lego Star Wars game, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. They revealed that the game had close to 500 characters and many of these were actually being played.
StarWars.com: There are also characters to play. It's amazing. Aside from the main villains and villains, how did you choose to count the smallest characters? And if you can tell, which new character is you most excited about for fans to use?
Jonathan Smith: We are all followers; there is no shortage of characters we like to play. And you can't ask us to pick one favorite! It is true that the entire cast is grouped together, separately in this LEGO style – a complete collection, from Admiral Ackbar to Zorii Bliss – making the game very special.
Craig Derrick: There are about 500 characters in the game, many of them playable. When choosing characters for such a great game, we just look at every film in search and try to say "yes" as much as possible. That said, it often comes down to storytelling and the specific role of the character in the conflict and the continuation of the game. Of course, we have almost all of your favorite heroes and villains from the movies, most of the backdrops, a few surprises, and… Yaddle!
