LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Already UK’s Second Biggest Game of 2022

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga has been out just over a week and in the UK it is already the second biggest game of 2022 behind Elden Ring, with 61% of all copies sold being digital, and it has also become the fastest-selling LEGO game in history.

The Warner Bros and TT Games title saw 61% of its sales come via download stores, according to GSD. That means the game only narrowly misses out on matching Elden Ring’s huge launch back in February (digital and physical combined).

It is comfortably the second biggest game launch of the year overall in the UK. And the fastest-selling LEGO game in history.

In terms of digital, Xbox was the dominant platform accounting for 41% of sales, PlayStation accounted for 34%, PC 18% and Switch 7%.

Overall (so including physical retail), PlayStation was the biggest platform with 39% of sales, followed by Xbox (34%), then Switch (16%) and finally PC (11%).

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is available now in Standard or Deluxe versions for Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and PC — get it now on Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk.
