August’s PS Plus games include Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Kris Holt — Engadget is a web magazine with obsessive daily coverage of everything new in gadgets and consumer electronics

Sony has revealed the three games that all PlayStation Plus members can claim at no extra cost in August, and the headliner is a real treat. Starting on August 6, you’ll be able to add the fantastic Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga to your collection.
The game takes you through the entire nine-film arc of the main Star Wars series, from The Phantom Menace to, appropriately enough, The Rise of Skywalker. Studio TT Games did a stellar job of distilling an enormous cinematic experience into a single game — but the developers endured some tough working conditions to make that happen, according to a report. The Skywalker Saga is arguably a little too big, in fact. It’s packed full of Easter eggs, side quests, references and the silly humor that fans of Lego games have come to expect. It looks splendid too.
