Areas where LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga Struggles

Some of the most taxing portions of LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga come from large-scale battles with large numbers of enemies. An immediate example of this would be during Episode I's Outmanned but Not Out Gungan-ed mission where waves of Droids for players to destroy. This portion of the game sees significant dips in framerate and responsiveness.

Not only do large-scale battles suffer performance dips, but playing co-op on the Nintendo Switch Console is a far rougher experience, seeing regular dips in performance as users make their way through the game.
