If you've been meaning to revisit a galaxy far, far away through the blocky lens of LEGO, now's the time. LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is officially leaving Xbox Game Pass on October 31, and Microsoft has confirmed the departure in its latest Xbox Wire update. The game will vanish from cloud, console, and PC libraries simultaneously, giving subscribers just days to squeeze in one last playthrough.
Since joining the subscription service on December 6, 2022, the game has been a staple for nearly four years. That's a long run, but all good things must end—especially when Halloween is the deadline. As of October 26, players have less than a week to explore the galaxy before they'll need to purchase the game separately to continue their adventures.
A Massive LEGO Galaxy to Explore
Released on April 5, 2022, The Skywalker Saga is a sprawling love letter to all nine mainline Star Wars films. TT Games rebuilt the classic LEGO formula with updated combat, a treasure trove of Easter eggs, and the ability to play through the entire saga in local co-op. That makes it a perfect pick for longtime fans introducing their kids to the series—or for anyone who fondly remembers spending afternoons collecting studs in earlier LEGO games.
The game's scale is part of its charm. Players can start with any of the three trilogies—The Phantom Menace, A New Hope, or The Force Awakens—giving them freedom to jump into their favorite era. Beyond the main campaigns, there are more than 300 unlockable characters and 23 planets to discover. Wandering off the beaten path can become a substantial adventure in itself, especially for completionists.
For those who want even more, the Galactic Edition expands the roster to over 400 playable characters, pulling from stories beyond the main saga. If you're considering a purchase, be sure to check which edition you're buying—the extra characters might be a deciding factor. And if you're planning a farewell marathon, you could pair your sessions with LEGO's animated Star Wars specials for a full blocky immersion.
This departure is a reminder that even the biggest games eventually move on. But for now, subscribers have a few more days to enjoy one of the most beloved Star Wars games ever made. Don't wait until the clock strikes midnight on Halloween—unless you're ready to say goodbye to your LEGO Jedi.
