LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga arrived on the Nintendo Switch yesterday and it seems there is a nice little one Xenoblade Chronicles Easter egg in game.
Shulk Adam Howden voices an NPC named Disco Director in this new LEGO Star Wars game. When conversing with him, his character says, “Now this is a party! I really feel it.” As Nintendo fans will know, this is a throwback to Adam’s character Shulk in the Xenoblade series. You may have heard him say something similar in Smash Bros. as well.
According to a story on the Xenoblade Chronicles subreddit, a former TT Games developer was able to add:
I worked on LSWTSS. When I heard that Adam Howden would be providing his voice for the game, I tried working on a Xenoblade reference somewhere.
I managed to get this into the last puzzle I worked on.
I wasn’t in the booth when he was recording, but I had an email from the script editor at the time. He said Adam was initially unsure about the line, but after being told it was a Xenoblade reference he hit it. He was happy to hear that it was indeed a Xenoblade reference.
Nice to see people enjoying this little one I snuck into! https://t.co/JSwZmGM1kH— David Harris (@DaveBoyColour) April 5, 2022
