LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight Details
LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight begins with a young Bruce Wayne training under The League of Shadows, eventually evolving into Gotham’s legendary protector. Throughout the campaign, players will team up with iconic allies like Jim Gordon, Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, Catwoman, and Talia al Ghul to take on a growing threat from DC’s infamous Rogues Gallery, including The Joker, Penguin, Poison Ivy, Ra’s al Ghul, and Bane.
LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight’s Combat has been completely overhauled, introducing a dynamic system that mirrors Batman’s signature fighting style. Expect fluid combos, counters, and cinematic takedowns. Whether playing solo or in two-player local co-op, players can wield classic Bat-gadgets like Batarangs and the Batclaw, while partner characters bring their tools to the fight, from Gordon’s foam sprayer to Catwoman’s whip.
For those seeking a challenge, the game introduces two new difficulty modes: Caped Crusader and Dark Knight, offering a tougher, more strategic experience beyond traditional LEGO gameplay.


Set in an open-world Gotham City, players can explore a vibrant LEGO playground filled with crimes to stop, puzzles to solve, and secrets to uncover. Traverse the city using Batman’s grapple launcher, glide across rooftops, or cruise through the streets in a variety of Batmobiles and Batcycles.
The Batcave also returns as a customizable hub, allowing players to showcase vehicles, trophies, and collectible Batsuits inspired by Batman’s rich media legacy.


LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is scheduled to release in 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, and PC.
