What are Kyber Bricks in LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga?

LEGO games have certainly come a long way since the PlayStation 2 days. What were once simple platformers with characters that only spoke in grunts have become full-fledged games with modern features and full voice acting. LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is the most ambitious LEGO game to date, though if you want to make full use of its new features, you’ll need some Kyber Bricks.

But what are Kyber Bricks in LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga?

What are Kyber Bricks in LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga?

Kyber Bricks are a secondary currency in LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga, collected independently of the game’s main currency, Studs. Unlike Studs, Kyber bricks only have one purpose: to upgrade your characters.

LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga is the first LEGO game to utilize a full skill tree system. Characters are divided up into particular classes, such as Droids, Jedi, Scavengers, Bounty Hunters, and so on. Each of these character classes has its own skill tree, and for a fee of Studs and Kyber Bricks, you can unlock nodes on the skill tree to enhance your characters’ abilities, as well as unlock new ones. Besides the class-specific skills, there are also Core Skills that upgrade all of your characters. You can check out the various skill trees from the Upgrades tab of the Holoprojector.

Just to give you an idea of what to expect, here are a few different abilities you can buy with Kyber Bricks:

• Scoundrel’s Business Opportunist: Reduces the Stud cost of buying challenge rumors from the Holoprojector
• Jedi’s Jedi Reflexes: Increases the power of combat counters, and causes their damage to radiate to nearby enemies
• Core Skill Speedy Sprint: Allows all characters to move faster while sprinting
