Lego Star Wars: Castaways is a Lego-themed adventure-fighting videogame developed and published by Gameloft. It was released on November 19, 2019 on Apple Arcade and is playable on iOS, macOS, and Apple TV.

Gameplay[edit]

The game starts off with the player being asked to select a randomly generated name. The game is played in third person perspective where the player can explore an island as a Castaway.

The player can play single-player, or with the online multiplayer feature. Players can customize their characters with many Star Wars styled outfits. Players can face enemies such as Stormtroopers or race in Microfighters.

Development[edit]

The Gameloft team drew heavily from the rapid-fire richly textured imagery of The Lego Movie and its equally effervescent sequel. “Everything is Lego in those movies, down to the backgrounds,” says Lee Kaburis, game manager for Lego Star Wars: Castaways. “We investigated the matter a little further, decided it was feasible, and said, ‘OK, we’re going all in.’ We wanted that full immersion of being in a Lego world.”" Kaburis also stated that "playtime — which involved nearly everyone on the team — was the most important part of development.".^[1]
