Why players say this

Steam review verdict

Ahsoka Tano and the excellent roster shine with high-quality models, but missing DLC voice lines, shallow characters, and a high price for low content disappoint.

What players like

Ahsoka Tano is a standout character: Ahsoka Tano is repeatedly praised for her dual lightsabers, cool design, and unique fighting style, making her one of the best characters in the game and a major reason to buy the DLC.

Overall best DLC pack: Players frequently call this one of the best DLC packs for LEGO Star Wars, citing its value, character selection, and the addition of Ahsoka and Moff Gideon as highlights.

Moff Gideon and darksaber praised: Moff Gideon is highlighted as a nice addition, with his darksaber enabling puzzles like saber doors and imperial grenades, and he is a fan-favorite alongside Ahsoka.

Excellent character roster selection: The DLC includes a variety of beloved characters from recent Star Wars media, such as Ahsoka, Bo-Katan Kryze, Moff Gideon, Boba Fett, and Fennec Shand, which fans appreciate for expanding the game's hero and villain lineup.

High-quality character models and animations: Minifigures are rendered in detail matching the base game, with great models (especially Ahsoka) and fantastic animations reflecting obvious effort and care.

Common complaints

Missing voice lines for DLC: Multiple clusters report that DLC characters lack any dialogue or voice lines, making them feel incomplete and less enjoyable. Clusters 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, 27, 34 all mention this issue.

Characters lack depth and polish: Clusters 10, 12, 18, 20, 24, 26, 28, 29, 30, 31, 33 highlight that characters are missing key forms (like Ahsoka's), are useless in-game, misclassed (Bo-Katan), missing (Dark Troopers, Mayfeld, Mando in full beskar), repetitive, and feel bland, empty, and unfinished.

Boba Fett appearance and issues: Several clusters criticize Boba Fett's re-armored look with jumbled colors and studs (Cluster 4), missing normal voice acting (Cluster 9), inability to use his jetpack for flight (Cluster 16), and confusion over the Book of Boba Fett DLC causing misled expectations (Cluster 17).

DLC feels like padding: Clusters 6, 14, 22, 23, 36 describe the DLC as a collection of characters/costumes with only one standout (Ahsoka), while others are pointless, less polished, and not worth the price unless you specifically want Ahsoka.

High price for low content: Clusters 7, 13, 15 criticize the DLC costing real money instead of in-game studs, being overpriced even on sale, and being a '1 month delayed microtransaction for a singleplayer game'.

Gameplay and performance

Character pack is cosmetic only: The Mandalorian Season 2 Character Pack adds five skins that are purely cosmetic, with no new gameplay mechanics or unique abilities.

Ahsoka Tano with dual lightsabers: Ahsoka Tano is included with her signature dual white lightsabers, providing an authentic representation.

No voice acting for characters: Some characters included in the pack have no voice acting, which detracts from immersion and quality.

Includes heroes and villains roster: The pack adds a roster of both heroes and villains, expanding the playable characters from different factions.

Microtransaction for singleplayer skins: The pack contains five skins for a singleplayer game, available as a microtransaction, which some players find overpriced.

Recommendations

Ahsoka is a key selling point: Multiple reviews indicate that the DLC is primarily worth purchasing for fans of Ahsoka, while others find it less compelling. Clusters 1, 5, and 7 all mention Ahsoka as a reason to buy.

Best single DLC pack: Clusters 2 and 10 recommend this as the best DLC to buy if choosing only one pack, suggesting high value among available options.

Recommended for character fans: Clusters 3, 6, and 15 state the DLC is worth buying for fans of The Mandalorian, the included characters, or at a low sale price, targeting specific audiences.

Mixed overall ratings: Cluster 12 gives a 7.5/10 rating, while Cluster 9 simply says 'worth it' and Cluster 14 highly recommends, showing varied satisfaction.

Missing voice lines reduce value: Clusters 8 and 18 note that characters lack dialogue, which detracts from the experience and makes the DLC feel less complete or worth its price.

Buying context

Community fair range: $19.99 - $39.99.

Player profiles

Character Collector: Unlocks and experiments with all available characters, seeking completion or variety. Motivation: Acquiring and experiencing new gameplay content through character unlocks. Stance: sale.

Value & Design Critic: Evaluates DLC content critically; may not purchase unless conditions are met (price drop or design changes). Motivation: Ensuring fair pricing and distinct, well-designed character roles. Stance: no buy.

Extra review signals

Monetization: The user feedback focuses on dissatisfaction with the quality and price of DLC packs for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. The DLCs are sold separately and feature characters without voice lines, leading to a perception of being overpriced or 'cash grab'. However, there is no evidence of pay-to-win, loot boxes, currency obfuscation, or any other predatory monetization patterns. The monetization model is traditional DLC expansion packs — a one-time purchase for additional content.
