How to fix the Maz glitch in Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

sportskeeda.com:

Developing games is hard, and it appears that several players are experiencing a bug in Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. In Episode VII: The Force Awakens, during the Starkiller Queen mission, players are tasked with speaking to Maz Kanata.

Normally, a blue zone would appear outside Maz’s Castle that the player can interact with to continue the story. But therein lies the issue: many players can't see the story marker. They can enter Maz’s Castle and even see Maz, but she will not speak to the player at all.

Traveller’s Tales is aware of the bug in Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, according to Reddit user steamart360. And while the Maz glitch can’t be fixed on consoles, there is a workaround for PC players.

As mentioned before, this Max glitch fix only applies to users who purchased Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga on PC. It entails altering the save data.

However, if console players wish to take a risk, members of the community have suggested making a beeline for Maz when the mission is given.

If you're going to go this way, do so at your own risk. Here are the steps:

There is a real possibility that the Maz glitch will still present itself in Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga even if you follow the suggestions above to a tee.
