LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga

LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga is an upcoming video game announced by LucasArts on May 25, 2007 at Celebration IV. It is based on the Star Wars-themed toy line by the LEGO Group, and is a combination of the highly successful LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game and its sequel LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy. The game has been announced for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii and Nintendo DS and will be released in early November of 2007.

Description
The Complete Saga gives a humorous look on the movies of both the Prequel trilogy and the Original trilogy. The game is being developed by Traveller's Tales, who was also responsible for the other games in the series. LucasArts is publishing the game as they did with LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy. It contains the levels and characters of the first two games, but has additional content for the levels. A total of 160 characters will be available, as well as additional and expanded levels.

The levels originally found in LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game are reported to have content similar to those in LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy such as powerbricks and vehicles. New game features will include enhanced Force powers, new power-ups and a new Challenge Mode. The speeder chase level, originaly removed from the first game, is confirmed to be a playable level, as well as a playable Zam Wesell.

Levels


There are reported to be 36 levels in this game, many of which are the same as those found in the original games. A level involving the pursuit of bounty hunter Zam Wesell will be added (this was a deleted level from LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game). The game will take place from "the Trade Federation’s “negotiations” with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace" to "the space battle above Endor in Return of the Jedi". The "Mos Espa Podrace" and "Gunship Cavalry" levels will be redesigned to encourage the open vehicle gameplay of LEGO Star Wars II. Bonus levels and 10 additional Bounty Hunter Missions will add new challenges to the Prequel Trilogy. Also, the episode I-II-III levels will be redesigned so that characters have to build, ride vehicles, wear helmets and get access to bounty hunter areas.

Characters from the first three episodes will now be able to avoid getting hit by blaster shots and have their own special close attack move (such as Chewbacca's ability to rip off arms). New Jedi Force moves will be included as well. The red power bricks from Lego Star Wars II that unlocked different extras, such as invincibility and the minikit detector, will be added to the prequel levels. It is possible that all the Extras, Vehicles, Features and Characters from the older GBA versions that were not in the other platforms will be included in the game as well.

 * All 56 characters from ep. I-II-III from Obi Wan to Darth Maul, from Padmé to General Grievous.
