Another LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga developer leaves TT Games

Another developer working on LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga has left TT Games, but says the eagerly-anticipated sequel is ‘in safe hands’.

A number of TT Games employees have left the studio over the past few months, including Head of Design Arthur Parsons. The veteran of video game development has worked on LEGO titles for 15 years, from 2006’s BIONICLE Heroes right through to LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga – which still doesn’t have a confirmed release date.

More developers are now starting to move on from both the project and its studio, however, including Jack Chapman – who left last month – and Alex Harkin, who announced earlier this week that he’s leaving TT Games after five years with the UK-based developer.

“Last week at TT games this week, truly the end of an era after spending my first five years in the industry there!” Alex tweeted. “Not to worry those waiting for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, [it’s] in safe hands.”

While staff leaving LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga before the game has hit shelves could be cause for concern, it could also just suggest that the title has almost finished production. Alex’s tweet is also pretty reassuring, and a solid indicator that the game is still coming along as planned – even if it has taken much longer than originally anticipated.

Our next hope for news – outside a separate announcement from Warner Bros. and TT Games – lies with Gamescom, which takes place from August 25 to 27. At the moment, it looks unlikely that LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will be present, but that could yet change.
