LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is the biggest LEGO video game ever created, and its newly leaked download size seems to reflect that. It's not at hard drive-filling Call of Duty or Red Dead Redemption 2 levels just yet, but for a LEGO game it's much more than expected.
LEGO fans have been playingStar Wars game adaptations since LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game kicked things off in 2005 with an adaptation of the prequel trilogy. It was a massive hit, and LEGO adaptations of the rest of the Saga up to the Force Awakens soon followed. But LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is a completely new game that spans the entire nine films, and features brand new RPG mechanics that allow players to upgrade abilities and truly make each character feel different. It's bigger than previous titles in every single way.

According to Twitter account PlaystationSize, the PS5 version ofLEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will have a download size of 38.182 GB.

The game will be available for pre-load on April 3rd so players that preorder it can get things downloaded a couple of days early and start it up as soon as it launches on April 5th.
