Does it start with prequels and end at Return of the Jedi?
Because that's the only Skywalker saga I recognize.

This one is very different. Check out the details and gameplay trailers. Really hyped for this one.

I was really hyped until it was revealed a few months back that there aren't going to be PS5 enhancements. It's been delayed several times, which i thought was because they were adding next gen enhancements.
Blinded by nostalgia? It's a very very shallow arcade shooter made to eat dollar bills at high-end arcades. You could finish the whole thing in like 20 minutes.

That's a placeholder like how when they say a game is coming Dec 31st because it's coming sometime that year its probably coming sometime in May
Normally GameStop doesn't put placeholder dates. When they don't have a date they just put "pre-order" on the box.

This is a completely new game, the older ones from I-VI and Force Awakens have been remade and 8/9 are brand new to the lego series

This has been an obcenely long wait for a lego game. I wonder if they hit other roadblocks besides covid. Normally they reveal a lego game and its out 2 or 3 months later

Yeah them saying that the ps5 and series x versions wont have next gen upgrades like enhanced visuals, ray tracing, or other stuff when the game comes out is so fucking strange to me. Why release those versions at all if they will just be glorfied ps4 and xbox one games?

As others have said, this is a fresh take on the saga so it's not just the old LEGO Star Wars upresed, and there's more story covered in expanding across the 9 films. But also, it's a family/kids game, so the majority of the audience I would assume wasn't around for the PS2 games or the re-releases, etc. 2005 was a long time ago (and if you're a Sony gamer, 2005 doesn't even exist anymore...)

The development cycle has been baffling and worrisome. Normally, there would be like a half-dozen LEGO games from TT Games across a number of franchises, now this one game is taking two extra years (in addition to all the time they put in before even announcing it) and it's the only known title on their radar. I'm hoping there's not something wrong at the studio (did LEGO Dimensions cripple them when it went bad or what happened?) Admittedly, I've fallen off on the LEGO games because they were mostly the same and I ran out of kids to play them with, but it was a nice product line and TT Games (Travelers' Tales) is at heart a good studio, so I wish them well and am eager to see if the LEGO Star War Skywalker Saga adjustments win me back to their brand.
