LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight Deluxe Edition

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight runs through every era of Batman at once — the comics, the films, the animated series — and lets you play all of them in a LEGO Gotham built to be climbed on.

The formula is the one TT Games has refined over twenty years: smash the environment into bricks, rebuild it into what the puzzle needs, switch characters for their specific abilities, and collect studs until the counter stops being meaningful. What is new is the scope of the roster and the open Gotham connecting it, with several drivable Batmobile variants pulled from different decades. Local co-op is drop-in, so a second player can join at any point and leave when they get bored, which is how these games are actually played. Progression unlocks characters, suits and cosmetics as collectibles turn up.

The Deluxe Edition adds the Legacy Collection — the Arkham Trilogy, Party Music and Batman Beyond packs, totalling twenty-one suits plus Batmobile variants and Batcave decorations — and the Mayhem Collection DLC with a Joker and Harley Quinn story mission.
