LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga release date may be October 20

The release date for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga may have been announced, before being quickly hushed up.

Each week, the Star Wars channel on YouTube puts up a news round-up video. A user on Reddit spotted that this week's video was removed, before being uploaded again. The one key difference was that the original video named October 20 as the release date for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, with the updated version missing it. A number of viewers noticed, commenting on it under the new video.

The release date for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga has been mysteriously broad, with only 2020 being officially confirmed up until now. Was the original video revealing the date too early? Was it a mistake?

Key artwork for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was shared earlier this week.
