Lego Star Wars is a Legotheme that incorporates the Star Wars saga. Originally it was only licensed from 1999–2008, but the Lego Group extended the license with Lucasfilm Ltd. multiple times: first until 2011, then until 2016, then again until 2022.

The brand has spawned six video game releases, developed by Traveller's Tales — Lego Star Wars: The Video Game (2005), Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (2006), Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (2007), Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars (2011) Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2016) and Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga (2020). Many short films and miniseries have also been produced.

LEGO Sets[edit]

The first Lego Star Wars, released in 1999, included model 7140, the first Lego X-wing. Star Wars was the first intellectual property to be licensed in Lego Group history.[1] The first few sets based on the original trilogy were released in 1999, coinciding with the release of The Phantom Menace. Sets based on the prequel trilogy (Episodes 1 to 3) of Star Wars would follow, starting with Episode I. As each new film in the prequel trilogy neared its release date, Lego issued new models of ships and scenes in those films, as well as additional sets from the original trilogy. Lego also produced models based on The Clone Wars, which was released early in 2008.[2] Sets based on Star Wars Rebels, The Force Awakens, Battlefront, Rogue One, Solo, The Last Jedi, and Star Wars Resistance have also been produced.

Ultimate Collector Series (UCS)[edit]

In addition to the regular minifigure-scale sets, Lego has released several sets (approximately 26) for the Ultimate Collector Series. These models are often considerably larger, more detailed, and meant more for display purposes than other sets. They often cost more than regular Lego sets as well. Many of them include an information plaque and often a display stand. The largest of these is 75192, the 2017 UCS version of the Millennium Falcon, complete with ten minifigures. At 7541 pieces, it is the largest Star Wars Lego set ever released; and the largest set of any collection ever commercially released. The newest Ultimate Collector Series set is the 75181 Y-wing Starfighter, released in 2018.[3] On June 5, 2015 an unopened box of the older 2007 Millennium Falcon Lego set was auctioned at online auction house Catawiki for 5,000 euros (5556.5 USD at the time) making it the most expensive LEGO set ever.

Minifigures[edit]

Most characters from the Star Wars universe have materialized in Lego minifigure form by now. The minifigure with the first code, i.e. sw0001, is a tan battle droid that appeared in The Phantom Menace.[4] Some minifigures repeatedly appear across multiple Lego sets, while others can be very rare, vastly increasing their resale value. In 2019, the number of Lego Star Wars minifigures has surpassed 1000, with the Battlefront II protagonist Iden Versio bearing code sw1000.[5]

With Star Wars day having recently passed, it's likely you've had a hankering to play some Star Wars games. However, you might be asking yourself: 'what games are available on my Xbox One?' There's actually a fair amount aside from the most recently released EA-developed Battlefront games.

Classic games like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars Republic Commando are all available on the console thanks to the magic of backwards compatibility. While not every Star Wars game in this feature has held up to the test of time, it's difficult to deny the sense of nostalgia we still feel for them. After all, we all had to start somewhere, and if that starting point was the middling Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter, then so be it. Nostalgia is a force that helps heal some of the worst shortcomings.

As an added bonus, many of the Star Wars games highlighted in this feature are on sale right now on the Xbox digital store to celebrate the recent Star Wars holiday. The deals last until May 8, so be sure to jump in while you have the chance.

Which Star Wars games on Xbox do you love the most? Let us know in the comments below. In other news, check out the most recent TV spot trailer for the upcoming Han Solo Star Wars spin-off.

Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens

'Playing a lot of Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens won't be a chore, though, especially if you do have a younger partner to take with you on your galactic journey. These Lego games are confectionaries now, little candies that don't have a huge amount of substance but are enjoyable nonetheless. Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens doesn't really take you to a new galaxy far, far away, but it's still a pleasant journey.' [read the review]
