🦇 LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight – Gotham Goes Open-World in 2026! 🚨
🌆 Gotham Rebuilt Brick by Brick
Gamers, get hyped! 🎮 The Dark Knight is back—but this time in LEGO form like you’ve never seen before. Warner Bros. Games, DC, and TT Games just revealed LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight at Gamescom 2025, dropping worldwide in 2026.
This isn’t your typical LEGO adventure. ❌ Small hub worlds are gone. ✅ In comes a massive, open-world Gotham City, ready to explore with your Batmobile, Batcycle, or even Batman’s iconic glider. Think Arkham vibes 🕶️ but with LEGO’s humor and style.
🚗 Drive It. Grapple It. Smash It.
The open-world Gotham is your playground:
Swing across rooftops with Batman’s grapnel gun 🪢
Glide from skyscrapers like the Arkham Knight 🕊️
Cruise the streets in the Batmobile 🚘 or Batcycle 🏍️
Unlock hidden secrets and collectibles 🎁
And yes—the legendary Batcave is fully customizable 🖤. Collect Batsuits, vehicles, and trophies to showcase your inner Batman fan.
👉 Pro tip: Sign up for a Warner Bros. Games account to unlock the Golden Age Batsuit (1939 Detective Comics look 🟨🖤).
🦸♂️ A Story Across Batman’s 86 Years
The campaign starts with Bruce Wayne’s early training in the League of Shadows 🗡️ and takes you through his rise to Gotham’s protector.
You’ll fight alongside the Bat-family:
Robin 🤹
Nightwing ⚔️
Batgirl 🦸♀️
Catwoman 🐾
Jim Gordon 🚨
Talia al Ghul 🔥
Each comes with unique gadgets (Robin’s line launcher, Catwoman’s whip, Gordon’s foam sprayer).
And what’s Batman without his rogues? Expect battles against:
🃏 Joker (“Why so serious?” makes a LEGO comeback!)
🐧 Penguin with explosive tricks
🌱 Poison Ivy’s twisted vines
💀 Ra’s al Ghul’s immortal menace
💪 Bane (voiced hilariously by Matt Berry)
🥊 Combat Upgrade – Arkham Meets LEGO
Combat is not button-mashing anymore. ❌
Instead, it’s pure Arkham-style flow combat:
✔️ Combos 🤜
✔️ Parries ✋
✔️ Cinematic finishers 🎥
Better yet, the game supports local two-player co-op, so you and a buddy can clean up Gotham together.
For hardcore gamers, there’s even Caped Crusader mode 🦇 and Dark Knight mode 🖤 for tougher battles.
