LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will get Baby Yoda as DLC, but you can't play as him

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will introduce Baby Yoda and a wave of other characters with its first pieces of downloadable content. The only catch? You won't be able to play as the little guy. 

Still, there are plenty of familiar faces to look forward to playing as when the game finally drops. In fact, they'll keep coming well after that. This is a game that aims to please when it comes to delivering plenty of character choices. 

At launch, players can purchase the LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Character Collection Season Pass, which comes with seven DLC packs with playable characters from the entirety of the nine saga films.
