The new DLC comes in two separate packs by the names of “The Mandalorian Season 2 Character Pack” and “The Bad Batch Character Pack.” Each pack costs $3 or you can get them and the rest of the offered DLC through the season pass, which is going for $16. Those that purchase the deluxe edition of the game already have each character pack, so no further purchases are needed to enjoy the new additions.

Each of today’s character packs comes with the following characters.

  1. The Mandalorian Season 2 Character Pack
    • Ahsoka Tano
    • Boba Fett
    • Bo Katan
    • Fennec Shand
    • Moff Gideon
  2. The Bad Batch Character Pack
    • Hunter
    • Wrecker
    • Tech
    • Crosshair
    • Echo

These two content packs mark the end of the planned DLC coming to Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, unless Traveller’s Tales has something planned for the future. You can celebrate Star Wars dDay with some new characters for your digital Lego collection with this additional content right now.
