LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will feature a mumble mode, but fans of Star Wars: The Clone Wars may want to avoid it. TT Games announced that The Skywalker Saga would include a mumble mode that players can toggle, simulating the dialogue style from the older LEGO games, such as LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, where characters never spoke, and instead mumbled sounds that mimicked the cadence of the dialogue from the film. It was a charming and fun way to recreate the classic scenes from the films and won over many players with its unique portrayal of the dialogue they already knew. Eventually, the series evolved past the mumble dialogue and began using voiced scenes to help provide additional context. Sometimes, the dialogue would be lifted straight from the movie it was adapting, while other times the audio would be brand new.
It has been said that the LEGO games were better without talking, but there are plenty of reasons to love the dialogue in the new installments, especially in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. While the early LEGO games displayed their wit through its hilarious physical comedy that lampooned scenes from the movie, the newer LEGO games now feature humorous dialogue to go along with it. This dialogue helps the games to better tell stories that both parody its source material while also paying homage to it. LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is looking to continue this trend, repeating a similar move from the LEGO Batman games and bringing back voice actors from a beloved animated series.
